Answer:

B) Land speculators were most able to purchase land in the affected areas.

Explanation:

In 1784-1785, the Continental Congress discussed and adopted the first land ordinance, a draft of which was prepared by Jefferson, although the final approval of the ordinance was carried out in his absence. Amendments were made that belittled the Jefferson project, its democratic orientation. Particularly unfavorable was the condition that land can be sold in 640 acre plots at a minimum price per acre of $1. The purchase of such a site was available only to planters or land speculators.

Answer:  B) Land speculators were most able to purchase land in the affected areas.

Explanation: A major disadvantage of the Land Ordinance of 1785- for the average settler, anyway- was price. Because of the price of the land, speculators were MOST able to purchase land in the affected areas. The average settler who wanted to start a new life farming the land was rarely able to pay the minimum price for a piece of land at that time. The price was around $640 for an entire plot, which worked out to well over $10,000, when adjusted for inflation. The result: land speculators snapped up the best land, then either resold it to others or developed businesses there.

Which statement best describes what happened if a German prince decided a state was Catholic in the late 1500s?1. The state had
son4ous [18]

2. The state tolerated Lutherans but not Calvinists.

Explanation:

  • This statement is followed by the decision of the Augsburg Peace Treaty.
  • The Peace of Augsburg is an agreement signed by Charles V and the forces of the Protestant Alliance on 25 September 1555 in the city of Augsburg.
  • That agreement ended the violence between Lutherans and Catholics in Germany.
  • The Peace of Augsburg was moderately successful in solving problems arising in the empire. Tolerance was increased and tension was freed from the empire. Many unresolved issues remain.
  • Calvinists were not protected by the agreement, so various Protestant groups lived in Lutheran areas and were in danger of being accused by the Lutheran regional ruler of heresy. Tolerance did not officially exist for the Calvinists until after the Peace of Westphalia in 1648.
