Which of the following was contained in the Adams-Onis treaty?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. In the Adams-Onis Treaty, Spain gave up all clams to land north of the 42nd parallel.

Explanation:

The Adams-Onis Treaty was the result of the negotiation between Spain and the United States to fix the border between the American nation and the then viceroyalty of New Spain.

The border was set beyond the Sabine River and Arkansas to the 42nd parallel north. As a result, Spain renounced its possessions beyond that latitude, including the territory of Oregon. It also ceded definitively the Floridas, Louisiana and the navigation by the Mississippi river. The Spanish Crown remained the sole sovereign of Texas, territory that the United States claimed as part of Louisiana, which was purchased from the French in 1803.

WILL MARK BRAINLESS!!! The Gettysburg Address is a remarkable speech. It is only 272 words long and took only two minutes to del
xxMikexx [17]
Both speeches focus on the history of fighting for a cause leading up to the Civil War. The US was built on revolutionary spirit and men's lives lost for the bigger idea of freedom. The deaths of the men will mean something because the cause of the war means something.

These addresses revitalized the Union effort and reminded the men of the long history they were now a part of. They stand on the side of freedom and that will be meaningful. This dedicate brought up morale in Union forces.
