Answer:
culture
Explanation:
Culture goes a long way to influence what consumers want and buy. In other words culture is a major determinant of what businesses and industries might actually prosper in an economy. From the above, freeze-dried sardine is preferred by Japanese mothers and so there is a large market for freeze-dried sardine in Japan. However this would not obtain in the American market as consumers for this product are already slashed by American mothers who don't like it.
Answer:
The U.S. government made reservations the centerpiece of Indian policy around 1850, and thereafter reserves became a major bone of contention between natives and non-natives in the Pacific Northwest. However, they did not define the lives of all Indians. Many natives lived off of reservations, for example. One estimate for 1900 is that more than half of all Puget Sound Indians lived away from reservations. Many of these natives were part of families that included non-Indians and children of mixed parentage, and most worked as laborers in the non-Indian economy. They were joined by Indians who migrated seasonally away from reservations, and also from as far away as British Columbia. As Alexandra Harmon's article "Lines in Sand" makes clear, the boundaries between "Indian" and "non-Indian," and between different native groups, were fluid and difficult to fix. Reservations could not bound all Northwest Indians any more than others kinds of borders and lines could.
