The correct answer is A) Most settlers searched for gold rather than planting crops.

The Jamestown settlement nearly failed because most settlers searched for gold rather than planting crops.

Sometimes people deviate their focus to other things that are not the priority. That is what happened in the first colony of England in the Americas: Jamestown. The colony at Jamestown nearly failed because of these two actions of the colonists: hunted for silver and gold and they also searched for the fabled Northwest Passage.

The Jamestown Colony was founded in 1607 and was the first English colony in North America. These European people arrived on May 14, 1607, and established close to the James River. These people came to America because they aspire to be rich or richer and were looking for raw materials such as gold. But permanent conflicts with the Native American Indians of the region, hunger, diseases, hunted for silver and gold, and the search for the fabled Northwest Passage, almost made the colony fail and disappear.

This approach, however, backfired because reparations were so severe Germany plunged into economic chaos. This situation allowed for the rise of Adolf Hitler and planted the seeds for WWII.

Answer:

The right answer is d.

Explanation:

Jalaladin Muhammad Akbar (1556-1605) was one of the greatest rulers of Indian history. Although a Muslim himself, he practiced a policy of tolerance of Hinduism, the religion of the majority of his subjects. He was a formidable warrior that led an impressive war machine, but he also used diplomacy as a tool to reach his goals, forging alliances with some local Hindu rulers when possible, and even marrying princess Jhoda Bai, a Hindu noble woman, for political reasons.
