Answer:

A. Weather and Erosion

Explanation:

The weather and erosion are the main physical processes that contributed to making desert regions in the world.

  • Weather is the atmospheric condition at a particular time.
  • Erosion is the removal of the top layer of the soil.

The weather over an extended period of time is known as the climate.

  • A desert is an arid region with no vegetation and precipitation.
  • This is as a result of the atmospheric condition over a desert.

Constant removal of the topsoil on which plants can easily obtain nutrients can also lead to desertification. Such an environment will not be able to support the growth of plants.

Since i live in it: America

IF we go by the British:

first they landed at Roanoke and Jamestown. Jamestown was successful. 
#1 expansion: colonists were given the right to move all the way up to the Appalachian mountains.
#2 expansion: When the US bought the Louisiana purchase
#3 expansion: The successful revolt of the Texans
#4 expansion: Mexico succeeds most of their northern lands.
#5 expansion: Gadsen purchase: brings the US mainland's border too today.

Many difficulties include:
1) no good maps
2) hard to make livings
3) Indians, robbers, etc
4) diseases, exposure, etc
5) ran out of supplies
6) broken down wagons, etc (if they took the boat to California, it will be: traveling for a long time, etc)
7) etc etc

hope this helps
