History

The correct answer is "The California Gold Rush brought in people from all over the world, which resulted in cultural diffusion among the settlers there". The California Gold Rush started in 1848 when James W. Marshall found gold at Sutter's Mill, news that attracted 300,000 people to California from around the United States and abroad. This period of the early West is considered a crossroad of culture because people from distant cities and countries interacted with the aim to found gold.

How did the geography of China affect the development of early civilization there?  
irina [24]
As noted by the other Brainly user's response here, early Chinese civilization developed between the Yangtze River and the Huang He River (or Yellow River), because the plain between the rivers is fertile, allowing for the development of agriculture.  It's also worth noting that the these two rivers extend for hundreds of miles from west to east before reaching the sea.  This facilitated trade and transportation on the rivers.  It also allowed Chinese rulers to maintain control and communication across the wide expanse of main Chinese territory.

Also worth noting would be the mountains and deserts and ocean that set China off from other lands.  Large mountain ranges exist in the south and west regions of China -- such as the Himalayan Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, and Tianshan Mountains.  The Gobi Desert sits in the northern part of China, and the Pacific Ocean is to the east.  These various geographic features set China off from other lands, so that civilization there  developed in its own unique ways, apart from outside influence.

Which poetic technique does Robert browning use in this excerpt from “ my last duchess “
KonstantinChe [14]

The technique of Robert Browning in "my last duchess" is known as a dramatic monologue. This is so because all the poem is expressed in one voice only, as oppossed to a dialogue, where more voices would appear. And it is dramatic because it contains all the elements of drama.
