The correct answer would be C.

In the 15th and 16th centuries, an increased number of vogages occurred all around the globe, to longer distances each time. This allowed the western civilization to stablish contact with the rest of Africa, America and Oceania.

The ability to travel further distances came because 2 things: the development of better ships, such as the galleon, and the advancements in navigation technology, which allowed the ship to reach it's destination even in months-long journeys across the ocean. The astrolable was one of such technological advances, allowing the sailors to identify the position of a celestial body in the sky, and triangulate the position of the ship from that information.

(Q006) In Texas, why were primary elections more important than general elections during most of the twentieth century?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Explanation:

This was because Texas was a one party state, and in a one party state, the candidate that wins the primary election is most likely to also win the general election.

Iraq gained independence from which european administration in 1932?
eimsori [14]

Answer:

British Empire

Explanation:

Iraq was under occupation of foreign countries for quite some time. The people of this country last were independent during the existence of the Muslim Caliphates. Since then, the Mongols occupied them, and after that came to powerful Turkic peoples, one of which established the Ottoman Empire, and the Ottomans gained control over Iraq, lasting for almost half a millennium. After the Ottoman Empire started to fall apart, Iraq became a mandate of the British Empire, and it was at last in the year of 1932 that Iraq was granted independence and the country was free again. The independence was granted in a peaceful manner, which was good for both sides, as bloodshed was not desired neither by the British, nor by the Iraqis, especially in a post-war period.
