Answer:

They captured Malacca from the Portuguese and opened trade with China. They used military force and forged close ties with local rulers than the Portuguese had.

Explanation:

Some hostilities commenced in East and Southeast Asia in1511 between the foreign sea powers in when the Malacca was taken over by people from Portugal who controlled the access to the seas and trade in that area. Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) a Dutch East India Company, devised means of destroying the Portuguese stronghold in that area.  

In 1605, VOC got permission from the queen in that area in order to launch an attack at the Santo Antonio. The Dutch built their company by the permission of the queen and seized the ship of the Portuguese because the relationship the Portuguese had with the Pattanni in Malacca has broken down.

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Hello!!

Explanation:

To stop Europeans nations from colonizing more lands in the Americas

The Monroe Doctrine is a foreign policy statement that created separate spheres of European and American influence. It was written by President James Monroe and Secretary of State John Quincy Adams.

The Monroe Doctrine consists of four main points:

1. The United States would remain neutral in European affairs and not get involved in European conflicts.

2. The United States would not interfere with current European colonies in the Western Hemisphere.

3. No European nation would be allowed to establish a new colony in the Western Hemisphere.

4. If a European nation would try to interfere with a nation in the Western Hemisphere, the United States would view that as a hostile act and respond accordingly.

Basically, then, the Monroe Doctrine decreed that the United States would handle the affairs of the Western Hemisphere.

Compare Enlightenment thinkers John Locke and Thomas Jefferson, which statement is accurate:
dalvyx [7]
John Locke and Thomas Jefferson had very similar ideas as to what rights citizens should have in a society. This is why Jefferson used his ideas in the US Declaration of Independence (Letter B).

Before the US Declaration of Independence was written, John Locke wrote about the concept of "natural rights." Locke argued that all people had these rights naturally and there was no government permission necessary for people to have these rights. Locke stated that these rights include "life, liberty, and property."

In the US Declaration of Independence, Jefferson pens almost the exact same words. Instead, Jefferson uses the famous quote of "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness." However, this quote shows how he was inspired by Locke's concept of natural rights and thought it was a necessary part of American society at the time.
