<em>A. Spain controlled more of North and South America than the other </em>

<em>countries.</em>

Explanation:

During this time, most of Latin America was colonized by Spain. France and Portugal also had some colonization in the regions, but it was mostly Spain. Spain had many goals by conquering the Americas, they wanted to fix their economy, by the easy trade routes that were in the Americas, and sell the silver and gold that were then abundant. They used many slaves to achieve this, both Natives and African Americans. Spain also wanted to spread Christianity throughout the Americas, as they were very religious people. This is also known as "gold, god, and glory."

Answer:

The British Empire began to take shape at the beginning of the 17th century, through the establishment of the Jamestown colony in 1607, in Virginia by England, which would be the beginning of the Thirteen Colonies in North America, which were the origin of the United States as well as the maritime provinces of Canada. There was also the colonization of small islands in the Caribbean Sea such as Jamaica and Barbados.

The sugar-producing colonies of the Caribbean, where slavery became the basis of the economy, were the most important and lucrative colonies for England. The American colonies produced tobacco, cotton and rice in the south, naval material and animal skins in the north.

The empire of England in America was gradually expanding through wars and colonies. England managed to control New Amsterdam (later called New York) after the Anglo-Dutch wars. The American colonies extended westward in search of new land for agriculture. During the Seven Years' War, the English defeated the French and stayed with New France in 1760, which made England the owner of almost all of North America.

Later, settlements in Australia (which began with the penal colonies in 1788) and New Zealand (under the domain of the Crown since 1840) created a new zone for migration from the British Isles, although indigenous populations had to suffer unequal wars -in some cases, genocide, as in the Black War- and also diseases. As a result of the wars, genocide, repression and poor diet were reduced in size by about 60–70% in just under a century. These colonies, already in the hands of the new settlers of British origin, will end up obtaining self-government.

STALIN [3.7K]
Maquiladoras are "assembly-for-export factories along the Mexican border." In Spanish, "máquina" means "machine," so we can think that "maquiladora" (which sounds similar) has to do with making machines, or that the maquiladora itself is run like a machine, since the employees often work in assembly lines. Another word for "maquiladora" is "maquila," which further bolsters this word association to "máquina."

How does hurricanes form
andrew-mc [135]
Winds flow outward above the storm allowing the air below to rise. Hurricanes typically form between 5 to 15 degrees latitude north and south of the equator. The Coriolis Force is needed to create the spin in the hurricane and it becomes too weak near the equator, so hurricanes can never form there. So basically, when air rises and starts to spin, it creates a hurricane.
