After demanding both political and military action on removing Native American Indians from the southern states of America in 1829, President Andrew Jackson signed this into law on May 28, 1830. Although it only gave the right to negotiate for their withdrawal from areas to the east of the Mississippi river and that relocation was supposed to be voluntary, all of the pressure was there to make this all but inevitable. All the tribal leaders agreed after Jackson’s landslide election victory in 1832.
It is generally acknowledged that this act spelled the end of Indian Rights to live in those states under their own traditional laws. They were forced to assimilate and concede to US law or leave their homelands. The Indian Nations themselves were force to move and ended up in Oklahoma.

The five major tribes affected were the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek, and Seminole. These were called The Civilised Tribes that had already taken on a degree of integration into a more modern westernised culture, such as developing written language and learning to read and write.
It overturned the more concessionary attitude of ex-President George Washington that aimed for ‘acculturation’ after debate with the Indian Nations. Even in those distant times, there was heated debate in congress with such famous names as the future president Abraham Lincoln and Davy Crockett speaking out against it. Now it is considered with serious negativity by all involved.
Answer: A
Explanation: Lincoln received no electoral votes from the South because he pledged to stop the spread of slavery, but not interfere in the South. So, he relied on the North which contained abolitionists who supported him and helped him win.
As for material wise, the English realized that the American Colonies could provide a stable stream of funds that relied on the production, refining, and sale of many different supplies and crops. Such examples would be Tobacco, Sugar (not 100% on this one), and Cotton (later on). Other products that could be produced in the Americas were whale oil and seafood. As for influence, the English noticed that they could claim large parts of Unclaimed (and sometimes claimed, which they woukd fight for) North America such as parts of Canada and almost the entire East Coats in order to spread the influence of the Crown further throughout the world. It was also a power struggle fight between Britain, France, and Spain, which was another reason for the colonies.
I would say all of the above. Political because there may be tension between individuals, economic because it may have been that one part of the gov't didn't want to take on the other parts debts, and geographical like in the case of Greece where civilizations literally had an ocean between them.
Answer:
Albert Speer was a German architect who was Minister of Armaments and War Production in Nazi Germany during World War II. Therefore, he was part of the leadership of the Nazi government, with which he had direct responsibility for the decisions of this regime, thus being largely responsible for the war crimes that Germany committed during World War II. In addition, since he was in charge of producing the armaments necessary to sustain the war, and designing new weapons developments capable of wreaking havoc on enemies, Speer had a fundamental role in the battle conditions of the war. For these reasons, Speer was sentenced to 20 years in prison during the Nuremberg Trials, which was appropriate given his participation in the Nazi regime.
