I believe the answer is C
The Tuareg culture exhibits a combination of Islamic and pre-Islamic traditions. So in regards to the question given, the correct option is option "c". The Tuareg are actually nomadic people that follow a pastoralist lifestyle. These people are normally found in the interior of Saharan desert of North Africa. As they are nomadic people, they are constsntly on the move from place to place in search of food and shelter. Niger, Algeria and Mali are the places where these people are found in abundance. These people often get engaged in fight for control of land and fertile places for their animals to feed.
Because it offers the historian an objective snapshot of the public sentiment of the time, which the cartoonist (should be) distilling for their readers, according to their feelings, for mass appeal. I say objective as it is usually very easy to decipher their subjective viewpoint according to the publication. The value of this is that it is tapping into how the masses 'feel' rather than how subjective facts can be built to form historical opinion. It becomes especially valuable prior to this century, when public sentiment is harder to garner as we were less technologically advanced.
The correct answer is B) Patriots.
The colonists who wanted to fight the British for American independence were Patriots.
In opposition to Loyalists who supported the presence of the British monarchy and the English government in the colonies, Patriots were American colonists that wanted independence from the British king.
Patriots were tired of the many injustices and heavy taxation imposed by the English government, as was the case of teh Navigation Acts, the Stamp Act, the Tea Act, and many others.
Patriots were also furious that they had to pay taxes but had no voice or representation in the British Parliament. Indeed, all these were major causes for the beginning of the Revolutionary War of Independence.
