Hernán Cortés was a Spanish conquistador, or conqueror, best remembered for conquering the Aztec empire in 1521 and claiming Mexico for Spain. He also helped colonize Cuba and became a governor of New Spain.
"Like many explorers we know about today, Hernán (also known as Hernando) Cortés's role in the Age of Exploration was influential but controversial," said Erika Cosme, Administrative Coordinator of Education and Digital Services at The Mariner’s Museum and Park in Newport News, Virginia. "He was a smart, ambitious man who wanted to appropriate new land for the Spanish crown, convert native inhabitants to Catholicism, and plunder the lands for gold and riches."
Answer:
Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca was a Spanish explorer who set out to discover new lands and new wealth. After surviving several disasters, Cabeza de Vaca and his weary crew landed on Texas shores, where they were approached by a group of Native Texans.
Explanation:
Answer: D. Romney won the most delegates in the race for 2012 nomination.
Explanation: Given the information in this graph, Romney has roughly 1500 delegates VS all the other candidates who don't even have 400 delegates. The graph does not give any information about caucuses or primaries, so A couldn't be the right answer. Paul, Gingrich, and Santorum combined is around 800, where Romney has 1500, therefore B is incorrect. And again with C, the graph does not provide any information about about primaries so therefore irrelevant, leaving D as the final answer.
I would say that good judgement comes from considering the outcomes of your decisions.
This is not something that is a "talent": something that one is born with, or something that can be done without thinking too hard. Instead, one actually has to consider the outcomes of the decisions to be able to evaluate them.
