English sailers were on a mission to find new land to live on. They were tired of England’s monarchy because during those times to be wealthy or participate in government you had to be born into it (monarchy/aristocrats).

B. caused a major reduction in international trade
Explanation:
The "Smooth-Hawley Tariff" was an act that was meant to alleviate the people and the economy from the "Great Depression." It raised the tariff of import goods. This was retaliated by other countries, which, in turn, also increased their tariff on US goods. So, this contributed to a decline of both import and export of goods, thereby <u>reducing international trade</u>.
Since it is the role of the bank to assist people when it comes to financial trading, <em>the reduction of international trade greatly affected banking.</em> This resulted to many bank failures, including the collapse of the Creditanstalt Bank (used to be the largest bank in Austria). Farm banks also began failing due to the collapse of the export market. <u>The tariff made a significant change in the country's monetary system.</u>
So, this explains the answer.

President Grant and his Attorney General Amos T. Akerman began a serious crackdown on Klan in the South, starting in South Carolina. They were making arrests and convictions, causing the Klan to demobilize and thus ensuring a fair election for 1872.
