Answer: c. The United States government passed laws intended to limit immigration

Explanation:

The United States was built on immigration however, towards the late 1800s, economic conditions were poor in some parts of the country and with people still coming into the country, the government felt a responsibility to act so that Americans would have more job opportunities.

Were colonies useful mostly because they provided a ready market for manufactured goods?
Oksanka [162]
No. European countries wanted colonies because they wanted to gain more wealth. Gold and silver from the colonies made the countries richer. Another reason was for the raw materials that they needed for their factories. Getting raw materials from the colonies was much cheaper than buying from other countries. One more reason was the desire for land and power. Having colonies made replenishing  supplies easier and in case of war, the colonies could be used as military bases.

Match the participants of the French and Indian War with the territories they lost or gained after the Treaty of Paris of 1763.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Britain --- won territory and expanded empire

France --- lost territory and influence

Spain --- gained territory but did not settle it

American colonies --- gained territory and sense of unity

American Indians --- could not keep promised territory

Explanation:

The French and Indian War was a military conflict developed between 1754 and 1763 in North America, between Britain and France, for control of the territories adjacent to the Great Lakes.

During this conflict, the French were aided by Native Americans and, to a lesser extent, by the Spanish. In turn, the bulk of the British combatants were American settlers.

The end result of this war was the total annexation of the French colonies in America by Great Britain, as well as the secession of Louisiana to Spain by France.

For the Americans, this war meant the creation of a strong and unifying national identity, while for the Native Americans it meant a great loss of power in their ancestral territories.
