Your answer would be C for your question.
Answer:
A
Explanataion:
because A is used to ensure the financial stability of a region while protecting and extending U.S. commercial and financial interests
A is False. Sugar crops were just like any other crop that required hard
work from slaves. It was so hard that they often chose to get beaten
instead of working because they considered it to be worth it. That's why
sugar plantation owners started thinking of various ways to get slaves
to work that didn't involve physical abuse.
B is True. The sugar
produced came from sugar cane which grew easily in the climate where the
Portuguese land owners lived. They could grow a lot of it and export it
all around the world, from the Americas to Europe and back. That's why
they needed many slaves.
C is false. European people traded with
Africans as far back as the roman Empire. This was mostly in the north
of Africa but the kingdoms in the south like Mali were known worldwide.
When people started looking for India around the south of Africa, they
established tradings posts along the way.
D should be false.
Sugar had to be extremely secure when transported to Europe because it
is sugar and we all know how easily it melts in water. If anything
happened to it then entire earnings could be lost and this would be
detrimental for both consumers and producers.
E is true.
Everyone wanted sugar and wanted to control sugar productions. That's
why there were many incentives for even those who became free to start
their own colonies somewhere in order to produce sugar. Places in the
South America never seemed to produce enough.
F is false.
Portuguese laborers did not work on plantations. Plantations had workers
that were slaves and those who were indentured slaves from all around
the world. The workers worked elsewhere and found other jobs or they
found their own plantations.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you did not attach the list. Without the list, we do not know the reference to support the notion of the Declaration as a lawyer's brief.
However, in order to help you, we can answer in the following general terms.
The Declaration of US Independence can be compared to a lawyer's brief, which is an outline of the claims and the evidence the lawyer will present in a case.
We can set the example of the following lines of the Declaration: <em>"The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance.."</em>
In this portion of the Declaration, we can see how a lawyer could have stated the reasons why the King of England was oppressing the 12 American colonists
The Declaration of Independence was promulgated on July 4, 1776, and was immediately adopted by the Continental Congress. It was drafted by Thomas Jefferson, with the help of John Adams, Robert Livingstone, Benjamin Franklin, and Roger Sherman.
