EMPRESARIO SYSTEM. After Mexican independence in 1821, the Mexican government contracted "empresarios" or land agents to aid the settlement of Texas. Each empresario agreed to settle a specific number of Catholic families on a defined land grant within six years. In return, the empresario received a land premium of just over 23,000 acres for every 100 families he settled. However, if the requisite number of families did not settle within six years, the contract was void. The empresario controlled the lands within his grant, but he owned only the lands he received as a premium.
The majority of the Texas empresario grants were effected under the national law of 18 August 1824 and the state law of 24 March 1825. Under the state law, a married man could receive 177 acres of farming land and 4,428 acres of grazing land. An unmarried man could receive one-quarter of this amount. The settler had to improve the land and pay a nominal fee to the state. By 1830, however, the Mexican government began to question the loyalty of American immigrants in Texas, who outnumbered Mexicans in the area by more than two to one. Thus, on 6 April 1830, Mexico passed a law prohibiting further American immigration and canceling existing empresario contracts.

CAN YOU GUYS HELP ME? What should I do to explain anthropology, archaeology, and paleontology? I'm begging you because this is f
Greeley [361]

Alright..so

>> Anthropology: "is the study of humanity through the application of biology, cultural studies, archaeology, linguistics, and other social sciences."

>> Archaeology: "is the study of the ancient and recent human past through   material remains."

>> Paleontology is pretty much the study of ancient life

Before you begin writing about each of the topics write the definitions. Maybe even add names of people who discovered it. Add interesting facts. When you find stuff to write about after doing research your paragraphs (if you're doing an essay) quickly fill up and you overall have more to talk about.

Hope this helped.

STatiana [176]

Answer: Because the Muslim world was the center of philosophy, science, mathematics and other fields for most of the medieval period, many Arabic ideas and concepts were spread across Europe, and trade and travel through the region made understanding Arabic an essential skill for merchants and travelers alike.
