If we start to travel from the Mississippi River westwards to the Pacific Coast, than the starting point is a lowland, vast one, as we continue to go towards the west we will encounter high mountains, the Rocky Mountains more specifically, and the elevation will go up to 4,400 meters above sea level, than we will go down, elevation wise, to the high plateaus and will be on elevations between 1,000 and 2,000 meters, and after we go up again to almost 4,400 meters as we cross the Cascade Mountains. After the Cascades we go gradually downwards towards the lowlands, where we will first go a bit bellow sea level, and than little up in the lowlands along the Pacific Coast, and at the end reach a point of zero elevation.
The only state that did not go was Rhode island so I'm guessing A.
New Weapons Turn The Tide
With the new military technology, not only changed the War of the 100 years, but the whole war began to change in the world, like the English using cannons that could destroy the French castles; and new weapons like crossbows, which could shoot more arrows. While, among the French, the feeling of patriotism and nationalism began to grow as well, the English began to change the concept of fiefs, since the English needed large armies instead of feudal lords. The Italian cities flourished while England and France were recovering, and those Italian cities brought the Renaissance, the Reformation and the Age of Exploration.

administration officials of the Reagan Administration were secretly
facilitating the sale of arms to Iran, which was the subject of an arms embargo
during that time.</span>
