In short, suppression and eradication.
The Protestants of the early United States tended to avoid marrying and continuing the bloodlines of Native Americans due to obvious racial tension and prejudice against them. Native Americans were eradicated on a larger scale in North America rather than South America, so there would be a greater amount of Natives there. (This is because of a more complex and somehow tolerant society in the South) However, there were obviously the mestizos. While there <em>was </em>reproduction between white people and natives, it was typically a result of harassment or an uncommon desire to start a family.
In summary, the amount of Native descendants in the United States is significantly lower now than centuries before because of endless eradication and little amounts of pure-blood Native Americans being born.
The right answer is the D: During Muhammad's early rule, Jewish people enjoyed a protected status, provided that they were good and were acting justly. This fragment reflects how the Constitution ensured the freedom of religious beliefs and practices in the state of Medina and its autonomous communities, since, ultimately, Muhammad sought to guarantee the general welfare of its citizens, who had been in a constant state of war for many generations and were facing serious economic and social problems. Even though the document referred to Muhammad as Prophet and Messenger, it was implied that the Jews did not have to recognize him as such and could maintain their own religion. However, if they wanted the protection of the Believers, and if they wanted to be treated with equality and to be helped, they were expected to follow and thrive with them, to contribute to the cost of war - if they were fighting against the same enemy - and to assist them if they were being attacked.
This is a very significant document, a very early example of a written constitution.
The correct answer is C) Desire for new markets.
This desire for new markets resulted in the "Scramble for Africa." This term refers to the constant competition among European countries for colonial possessions in Africa. It got to the point where the competition was at such a high level, that European countries met to lay down some ground rules. This was known as the Berlin Conference (1884-1885). After this, colonization of these African territories continued to rise, as industrialization in Europe resulted in the desire to expand the markets where individuals could trade and sell their goods.
