PLEASE HELP ME!!!! FINAL DUE TONIGHT!!! SUMMARIZE THIS INTO TWO PARAGRAPHS INSTEAD OF FOUR
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries had transformed the world in climactic ways. One of the biggest transformations was finding and conquesting the Americas. With this comes a few theories, as in what had led both the Spanish and Portuguese empires to seek these voyages, but the truth of the matter is that the main reasons that pushed Spain to support Cristopher Columbus in his trip in 1492 were, first, the desire to discover and open new trade routes to the Indies. When the Spanish arrived in the Americas, their first encounter wasn't with big Native tribes or settled civilizations. It wasn't until later, in 1519, that the Spanish encountered true Native American civilization. And the first to find this was Hernán Cortés, who between 1519 and 1521, led a war against the Aztec Empire, one of the biggest and most important of the entire continent.

The Aztecs were settled in the Gulf of Mexico, in what is today Mexico itself. The second empire was the Inca Empire, in what is today Peru, specifically in Cusco. Unlike its sister empire in Mexico, the Incas did not have wheeled vehicles and they did not use farm animals. In the end, most of the Americas, save what is nowadays Brazil, which ended in the hands of Portugal, became part of the enormous Spanish Empire. The result was a group of colonies from which the Spanish derived the precious metal of gold and which made them really rich. The Natives, at first were enslaved by the Spanish until through intervention of the Church, black people were brought in to prevent the death of the Natives.

PLEASE HELP!!!! <br> Which best describes President Carter’s attempts to free the hostages in Iran?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

C is the correct answer. All of the attempts were failed.


In April 1980, frustrated with the slow pace of diplomacy (and over the objections of several of his advisers), Carter decided to launch a risky military rescue mission known as Operation Eagle Claw. The operation was supposed to send an elite rescue team into the embassy compound. However, a severe desert sandstorm on the day of the mission caused several helicopters to malfunction, including one that veered into a large transport plane during takeoff. Eight American servicemen were killed in the accident, and Operation Eagle Claw was aborted.

President Carter continued to attempt to secure the hostages' release before his presidency's end. On 20 January 1981, minutes after Carter's term ended, the 52 US captives held in Iran were released, ending the 444-day Iran hostage crisis.

How did the haitian revolution impact the louisiana purchase​
yulyashka [42]

A slave rebellion in Haiti helped the United States double in size at the beginning of the 19th century.  The uprising in what was a French colony at the time had an unexpected repercussion when the leaders of France decided to abandon plans for an empire in the Americas.  With France's profound change of plans, the French decided to sell an enormous parcel of land, the Louisiana Purchase, to the United States in 1803.
