History

Answer:

The general opinion of many Americans at the time of the purchase was that Jefferson was being hypocritical by going through with it. Jefferson was known to have a strict interpretation of the Constitution and believed the president only had the powers the Constitution gave him. Since there was no Constitutional precedent for buying land to add territory to the United States, there was theoretically no Constitutional authority for the president to buy the land.

Many of those in the Federalist party (the opposing party to Jefferson’s Democratic-Republicans) believed that he would have objected on Constitutional grounds if any of them had tried to do the same thing. Therefore, the Federalists were very much opposed to the purchase. They also believed that by buying land from France, they would alienate Great Britain, whom they wanted as a close ally.

Korea was ruled by Japan<span> from 1910 until the closing days of </span>World War II<span>.

This state has experienced a relatively large influx of Mexicans in recent decades and was featured in Immigrant Nation.
Helga [31]

Answer:

The state that has experienced a relatively large influx of Mexicans in recent decades and was featured in Immigrant Nation is Illinois.

Explanation:

The State of Illinois is one of the states that receives the most foreign immigrants throughout the United States. This is mainly because Chicago, the most important city in the state and the third most populous city in the nation after New York and Los Angeles, is one of the most important economic (and therefore labor) poles in the country.

According to statistics from the Census Bureau, 10% of the population of Illinois corresponds to descendants of Mexicans. In turn, 5% of the population of the state was born in Mexican territory. This situation increases in the Chicago Metropolitan Area, where 15% of the population is descended from Mexicans. Even in the city of Cicero, this percentage of descendants of Mexicans rises to 80%.
