History

ZanzabumX [31]3 years ago

The United States became an empire in 1898 when we annexed Hawai’i and the Spanish overseas empire. When we annexed Alaska, as a non-contiguous territory, we were on the way to empire. When we annexed distant tropical islands we were there. Over the next decades we created Panama and annexed part of it, we occupied Nicaragua, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and we intervened in Mexico, China, and Russia. After WWII we adopted neo-imperial, indirect methods and engaged in horribly bloody, proxy wars with the Soviets. Since the end of the Cold War, we have returned to more direct interventions. But, because these do not involve direct annexation of foreign territories, they are not truly imperial. They need a prefix, neo-, semi-, post-, or something else.

I hope it helps!

Which fact provides the best evidence to support the conclusion that the end of the trustee period Also marked the end of coloni
mrs_skeptik [129]

The correct answer is B) Between 1750 and 1755, the number of Africans living in slavery in Georgia increased.

The fact that provides the best evidence to support the conclusion that the end of the trustee period also marked the end of colonies' attempts to ban slavery from approximately 500 to 18,000.

In 1730, James Oglethorpe created the trustees to found the Georgia colony, the last of the 13 colonies in America. Families received land to farm, creating new opportunities for poor English people that decided to travel to Georgia. Rich people that bought more land hired indentured servants. Trustees banned slavery but this came to an end when trustees ended, increasing the number of slaves from approximately 500 to 18,000.

The other options of the question were A) BY 1800, as many as 20 million slaves captured along the western coast of Africa had been shipped to the Americas. C) the majority of slaves that were shipped to the Georgia colony were from Senegal, Ghan, and Sierra Leone. D) to meet the need for cheap labor, many Georgia landowners used indentured servants that agreed to work for anyone willing to pat their way to the colony.
