Answer:
Search for new land and resources
Explanation:
the first Americans were nomadic, meaning they often moved from place to place, and never stayed in a permanent location. Because they were hunters and gatherers, when there were no more resources in the location they were staying, they would move and travel elsewhere. Ultimately, this led them to America, a continent that was not yet discovered or explored.
<u>This portion of the text shows Hobbes supported an absolute ruler:</u>
- <em>Men are continually in competition for honour and dignity . . . and consequently amongst men there ariseth on that ground, envy, and hatred, and finally war. ... No wonder if there be somewhat else required, besides [contract], to make their agreement constant and lasting; which is a common power to keep them in awe and to direct their actions to the common benefit.
</em>
- <em>
The only way to erect such a common power, as may be able to defend them from the invasion of foreigners, and the injuries of one another . . . is to confer all their power and strength upon one man, or upon one assembly of men, that may reduce all their wills, by plurality of voices, unto one will.</em>
Further detail:
Thomas Hobbes published a famous work called Leviathan in 1651. The title "Leviathan" comes from a biblical word for a great and mighty beast. Hobbes believed government is formed by people for the sake of their personal security and stability in society. In Hobbes' view, once the people put a king (or other leader in power), then that leader needs to have supreme power (like a great and mighty beast). Hobbes' view of the natural state of human beings without a government held that people are too divided and too volatile as individuals -- everyone looking out for his own interests. So for security and stability, authority and the power of the law needs to be in the hands of a powerful ruler like a king or queen. And so people willingly enter a "social contract" in which they live under a government that provides stability and security for society.
This would depend on your beliefs. Personally, I believe it was a cruel injustice to the Cherokee, and that the Trail of Tears was nowhere near necessary to advance civilization. However, this question is asking for your point of view on the matter. Using the information you have learned, reflect on the event and come to your own conclusion. Hope this helped! ^.^
