Answer:

b) Hawaii became fully controlled by the United States and lost all self-autonomy.

Explanation:

The word <u>"annexed" means to put or take over control of some weaker or smaller nation by a larger power by force and take it under their power</u>. This allows the greater power to wield authority over the governance and control everything, making the native power redundant.

When the United States annexed Hawaii, it controlled everything and took power from the monarch. <u>Hawaii became a part of the United States, fully controlled by it</u>. The island also <u>lost its self-autonomy</u>, meaning the United States made all rules and laws, and the leaders of the island and their power or authority is useless.

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

What contributed to the rise of the Italian states during the Renaissance?
tatyana61 [14]
<span>The cities of Italy prospered during the late Middle Ages, serving as trading posts connecting Europe to the Byzantine Empire and the Moslem world via the Mediterranean Sea. Commerce enriched and empowered regions in which the feudal system had not taken a strong hold, especially in northern Italy. The most prosperous of these cities—Florence, Venice, and Milan—became powerful city-states, ruling the regions surrounding them. Further south, the Papal States, centered in Rome, gradually grew to rival the wealth of the northern cities, and as the seat of the papacy, exerted a tremendous influence over Italian life and politics. Along with a few other minor centers of wealth and power, including Urbino, Mantua, and Ferrara, these four regions became the cradle of the Renaissance, beginning in the fourteenth century to undergo political, economic, and artistic changes.</span>
