Answer:

A) The US sent two representatives to buy the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803.

Explanation:

The statement that best describes the Louisiana Purchase is "The US sent two representatives to buy the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803."

Robert Livingston was the US Minister to France. President Jefferson ordered him to negotiate with France the Purchase of New Orleans. Negotiation went slow with French Charles Maurice de Talleyrand. That is why President Thomas Jefferson sent James Monroe to France to help Livingston with the negotiation. The negotiation ended when the United States accepted to pay France $11,250,000 for the Louisiana territory (828,000 square miles). The deal was done on May 2, 1830.

Archy [21]

I believe the answer is: b. interviewing people who are in the news.

By interviewing people who are in the news, Political candidates could have a platform to give further explanation regarding their past actions or plan in the future. This will keep the audience informed regarding what's going on in the government and help them to make their decision in the next election.

Can you provide one example of egocentrism and one example of sociocentrism you have noticed in your own life. Briefly discuss h

Zolol [24]

<span>I sometimes catch myself being somewhat egocentric. I think this can cause individuals to have a more difficult time empathizing with others, which is something I certainly struggle with when I am feeling egocentric. With sociocentrism, I feel that certainly brings others to have difficulty empathizing with their peers, or others from different groups. I attempt to stay open minded and remember EVERYONE is human, and no one is more valuable than anyone else!</span>

What factors encourage people to find new settlements in the middle colonies?

BigorU [14]

The reasons why more people traveled and settled into the middle colonies was because it was a good place for planting crops. This was due to the fertile soil as well a source for lumber used in ship building and other activities. It was also culturally diverse as people of different European backgrounds and religions settled there and were respected for their religious beliefs.
