Answer:he migration of Mormon followers, the Mexican-American War, and the Gold Rush indirectly contributed to the settlement of Nevada.

When Mormons sought freedom from religious persecution, Brigham Young led the group to the Great Salt Lake and proclaimed the independent State of Deseret. This region included Nevada, and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints eventually settled in the northern regions, and eventually, the Carson Valley. This settlement, the Mormon Station, became a trading post, and as they developed agriculture and a civilization there, non-Mormons began to settle there as well. caused rift that would lead to nv separation from utah territory. Young also sent some of his party to southern Nevada to establish another supply station and to convert the Native Americans to Mormonism.

In 1848, the United States defeated Mexico in the Mexican-American War, guadalupe hidalgo, obtaining the state of California and much of the southwest. This cession of territory prompted the government to define boundaries and statehood. Upon the Compromise of 1850, the Mexican Cession was broken up into New Mexico and Utah Territories, and what would later become Nevada was split in two.

Finally, the discovery of gold in California contributed to the flood of entrepreneurs crossing the Great Basin, the increase in trade posts and supply stations along the way, and ultimately, Nevada's future development. more populated in Genoa, Mormon Station

For what religious, political, and commercial reasons was portugal interested in africa?
Advocard [28]
Portugal was originally only concerned about establishing forts and trading posts so as to protect the sea route to Asia. As time progressed, they began to see the benefit of establishing more permanent settlements. These permanent settlements would result in the expansion of their political influence. The exploration idea of God, Glory, and Gold also fit. The more permanent settlements would allow the Portuguese missionaries to also further expand and share their beliefs with the African Peoples.
