History
1 answer:
Simora [160]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct response is that high wages had to be offered to workers recruited from many different countries in the region.

Explanation:

When the United States announced its plan to complete the Panama Canal, a new wave of recruitment of foreign workers swept across the area. Teddy Roosevelt told workers they were participating in a "great enterprise" and they were taking part in one of the "great works of the world."  In 1906 there were 24,000 men working on the Panama Canal. By 1911 there were approximately 45,000 workers. The workers who were contracted came from Panama and some from the United States, but also West Indian nations like Barbados, Europe, and Asia. By the end of 1905, 20 percent of the 17,000 canal workers were Barbadian because they were willing to work for cheaper wages.

How did brazil gain its independence​
Aloiza [94]

Brazil's independence was the historical process of separation between Brazil and Portugal that took place on September 7, 1822. Through independence, Brazil ceased to be a Portuguese colony and became an independent nation. With this event, the country organized itself as a monarchy that had d. Peter I as emperor.

The independence of Brazil has a strong connection with the transfer of the Portuguese court to the colony in 1808. The events that took place in the period between 1808 and 1822 led to the erosion of the relationship between the Brazilian elite, especially the Southeast, with the Kingdom of Portugal.

The Portuguese court decided to move to Brazil at the end of 1807 to flee Napoleonic troops that invaded Portugal in retaliation for having breached the Continental Blockade. At that time, the queen of Portugal was d. Mary and the ruling prince were d. John VI, and that was his decision.

Sensitive changes took place in Brazil during this period, which became known as the Joanino Period. These changes have taken place in the cultural, economic and even political fields. The first measure of great repercussion at the time was the opening of Brazil's ports in 1808. This was the end of the commercial monopoly that existed during the colonial period.
