Answer:

B. ALASKA

Explanation:

On October 18, 1867, an Imperial Russia flag was lowered at an army base in eastern Alaska, and a U.S. flag was flagged to mark Alaska's transition from Russian to U.S. ownership.

The United States purchased one and a half square miles of wildlife for 4 cents per unit, which later turned out to be one of the smartest transactions in history. Secretary of State <u>William Seward</u> then negotiated the purchase of the territory, which many considered to be a land of snow and ice, and called the transaction a deal called "Seward's follies."

However, the wisdom expressed by investing in snow and ice was reaffirmed when it was discovered that Alaska had vast natural resources.

Why was the Catholic Church a problem for the Revolution
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The French Revolution initially began with attacks on Church corruption and the wealth of the higher clergy, an action with which even many Christians could identify, since the Gallican Church held a dominant role in pre-revolutionary France.

La Constitution Civile du Clergé (The Civil Constitution of the Clergy) was a law passed on July 12, 1790 that resulted in the immediate subordination of the Catholic Church in France to the French government. It proved to be one of the most ill judged, controversial, and disruptive laws of the French Revolution

How did shays rebellion illustrate the weaknesses of the articles of the confederation​
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The Shays Rebellion was an armed conflict that took place in Massachusetts during 1786 and 1787, pitting Daniel Shays's rebels against the government. The origin of this conflict was the serious economic and financial situation of the country after the war, where the government demanded many ex-soldiers to pay their debts without granting any type of concession. This angered Shays and many other men, who viewed these demands as tyrannical and unfair. So they decided to arm themselves against the government and assaulted the Springfield armory. In view of this situation, the Massachusetts government asked for help from the federal government, which under the Articles of Confederation could not easily mobilize troops because it needed the agreement of the member states. Therefore, Massachusetts had to mobilize its own militia to defeat the rebels.

This situation revealed the weakness of the Articles of Confederation regarding military issues, given the inability to provide a quick response to an internal threat.
