1. -Land was a symbol of freedom, independence, and stability. It ensured that future generations would also be Americans and own land. The idea of a extensive land that has to be conquered ties as well with the idea of manifest destiny. In the 19th century, manifest destiny was a widely held belief in the United States that its settlers were destined to expand across North America.  

-Opportunity from the vast area of land in America attracted millions of people from other countries, who dreamed of economic stability, political/social equality, job opportunities, political/social equality, and most of all, freedom.

2. Florida.

-It settled a standing border dispute between two countries (United States and Spain)

-The addition of Florida was considered a triumph of American diplomacy and the turning point for the adquisition/incorporation of future states.

Who was Rosie the Riveter? A) Secretary of War during World War II Eliminate B) A cleaning lady for the Roosevelt's C) A cultrua
Bogdan [553]

The correct answer is option C. Rosie the Riveter was a cultural icon (not an actual person) of World War II, representing the women who worked in factories and shipyards during WWII, many of whom produced munitions and supplies.

Despite having a proper name, Rosie does not represent a single woman, but thousands. At the beginning of the years 40, coinciding with the Second World War, many American men left their jobs to go to the front. The government then began a powerful campaign to persuade women to dealing their place in the factories.

Over the years, a welter of American women have been identified as the model for Rosie, but it's believed that Naomi Parker Fraley, who worked during WWII at the Alameda Naval Air Station, is the real woman that inspired the icon.
