Answer: They were mostly populated with white Americans

Moses Austin was the first colonist who went about colonizing this area of Texas. He discussed this with Governor Antonio Martinez who allowed 300 American families to settle in Texas. Moses Austin died before he could carry out his plans, but these were continued by his son, Stephen F. Austin.

Stephen F. Austin decided that the region should be that between the Colorado and the Brazos River, as it has mild climate and plenty of good soil and natural resources.

Austin advertised for settlers to come to his colony. Many did, and the settlers became known as the "Old Three Hundred." Most were white Americans from Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Missouri, and Tennessee. However, settlers had to become citizens of Mexico and convert to Roman Catholicism.

For much of the Middle Ages, both popes and kings claimed the authority to appoint high church officials. In 1076, Pope Gregory

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Henry IV appeared before Pope Gregory VII to ask for his forgiveness.

Explanation:

In the 10th century, the emperor had gradually acquired a say in the appointment of bishops in the Holy Roman Empire. This was not very surprising, because the emperor often entrusted lordship, political and even military tasks to the bishops.

The battle really broke out in 1075 between Emperor Henry IV and Pope Gregory VII. On the one hand, the Pope interfered in the Saxon wars, undermining royal authority, and on the other, the appointment of a bishop of Milan by Henry IV was the last straw.

The king organized a meeting of bishops at which Pope Gregory VII was deposed. In response, Gregory excommunicated the king, as well as his allies. This put Henry in a difficult position, because a number of German bishops turned against him and some princes threatened to do the same. Henry then made a penance to Canossa in 1077, where he showed himself willing to submit to the Pope, who finally pardoned him.

Why did plantation owners turn to enslaved africans as a labor force?

amm1812

Plantation owners turned to the enslaved Africans as a labor force because they were not paying them for their work, instead they were just providing shelter and food for them. Also, they had total control over them because they owned them, thus were able to make them work as much as they wanted and the slaves couldn't do anything about it.
