Answer:

The primary purposes for the English colony in Virginia were to search for gold and look for other ways to make a profit (money).

Explanation:

The Virginia Company (<em>group of settlers that were sent to Virginia to estabish a colony</em>) wanted to make profits by searching for gold (a <em>yellow precious valuable </em>metal) or other ways to make a profit such as growing crops for trade. It was not easy for them because of famine (they had <em>nothing to eat</em>), diseases or conflicts with the local Native American Tribes. Virginia's first profitable export was tobacco, which allowed them to start developing their colony.

Which of the following borders were commonly used to draw national boundaries in Africa at the end of the colonial era?
Nookie1986 [14]

The correct answer is - Superimposed.

The nations in the African continent that gained independence had borders set by their colonial rulers, borders of the superimposed type. This basically means that the borders were set without taking in consideration the cultural heritage, history, ethnic groups, religious groups.

This type of border creation for the newly formed African nations created a lot of problems, problems that are still present nowadays. The reasons for the problems were that people that historically had tensions and conflicts got stuck into the same borders, ethnic groups and religious groups that were not tolerant to one another also found themselves put together, the interest and culture of the people were differing a lot, and there were multiple languages used.

All of that led to lot of civil wars, tensions, conflicts, genocides, persecutions, forced assimilation, split of countries. Because of that most of the countries stagnated or even regressed after gaining independence, and in large portion of them the problems just seem to grow instead of stabilize.

Why would americans might have felt threatened by foreign ideas?
coldgirl [10]
American people generally believe that the ideals of the founding fathers are the best ideals because of things such as democracy, unalienable rights, the constitution with its amendments, and similar things. Whenever someone would show up who would claim otherwise that person would be accused of being a traitor or a spy or something similar. This was especially important during the red scare when they tried to fight communists in the US more than anything else.
