Answer: Historian Charles C. Mann compiled evidence of a far more complex and populous pre-Columbian society.
Explanation: "From southern Maine down to about the Carolinas, you would have seen pretty much the entire coastline lined with farms, cleared land, interior for many miles and densely populated villages generally rounded with wooden walls. And then in the Southeast, you would have seen these priestly chiefdoms, which were centered on these large mounds, thousands and thousands of them, which still exist. And then as you went further down, you would have come across what is often called the Aztec empire and maybe better known as the Triple Alliance 'cause it was a group of three people, which was a very aggressive, expansionistic empire that had one of the world's largest cities as its capital, Tenutchtitlan, which is now Mexico City."
Answer: (4) WEST
Moving to the West in the US altered traditional expectations of women's roles in a number of ways. This expanded women's rights and led to Western states taking the lead in women's suffrage.
Some examples of women's expanding role in the West:
- On the western frontier, women performed many of the same tasks as men in settling the land. There was so much work to be done to establish a homestead, farm the land, etc, that women needed to assist in the physical labor.
- Women were allowed to attend colleges because of the need to train teachers. As an example, what we know today as San Jose State University was first established as a "normal school" (teacher training college), in 1857. It had its first graduating class in 1862, and all 54 of those graduates were women. UCLA -- the University of California, Los Angeles, was also originally a "normal school" (teacher training college), established as a branch off the San Jose school. Many women were becoming much involved in the education field in the West.
- Women also became doctors, lawyers, business owners, etc, in the West more readily than back East, because of the need for professionals in the Western territories.
- Women were allowed to hold property in their own names in the West, and encouraged to do so as a way of increasing the land holdings of a family.
Because of women's expanding roles in the West, they also became much more involved politically in the newly established Western states -- and full voting rights came first to women in Western states. In 1890, Wyoming became a state--and the first state in the US that allowed women to vote. The next states to grant women the right to vote were also all Western states: Colorado in 1893), Utah and Idaho in 1896, Washington in 1910), California in 1911), and Oregon, Kansas, and Arizona in 1912.
<span>Georgia was different from the other twelve colonies. It received money from Parliament to get it started, and alone of the 12 colonies, prohibited slavery and the import of alcohol. It is generally believed that lawyers were not allowed in the colony, but no legislation has been found to prove it. The settlers had no control of their own government - it was entirely ruled by the trustees.</span>
