Question 1: A. Meet American Indians in South Carolina.
Question 2: A. To convert the American Indians to the Catholic religion.
The Cofitachequi were the first contacted indigenous people that Hernando de Soto came into contact with in his expedition of 1540 into South Carolina. They were later visited by Juan Pardo in 1566-68 and by Henry Woodward in 1670.
One of the main motivations of these expeditions, especially those organized by the Spanish government, was to find new people to convert to Catholicism. Therefore, Catholic priests were among some of the first settlers in America.
Theocracy is the opposite of the separation of Church and Government: it means that the rule in the country is connected to religion.
Pharaoh was the ruler of the country - equivalent to a king, but also he was a priest (the highest priest in the country) and often a God. This means that he took all the administrative and political decisions, but also the religious decisions in the country.
This also meant that the rule of the Pharaoh could not be challenged as it has a divide origin.
It changed by more students and teachers going to school for more education and becoming more available. Hope this helped
