Answer:
d. The U.S. government's policy of relocating the North America's indigenous population to reservations in the West.
Explanation:
In the field of human geography, push factors refers to the reasons why people emigrate out from one place to another. Their opposites are the pull factors, which are the reasons why people immigrate to a new place coming from another.
There are three main push factors: economic, environmental, and cultural. In the provided answers, option a is an example of an economic push factor, as Mexican laborers moved to the US in search of the job opportunities given to them during World War II. Option b is clearly an environmental factor. Option c is another example of an economic factor, as Europeans farmers were motivated to emigrate looking for better economic conditions in the New World. Option e is another clear example of an environmental push factor.
Option d is the one cultural factor. Starting in 1830 with the passage of the Indian Removal Act, <u>the United States government forcibly relocated most of North America's indigenous population to reservations in the sparsely populated western part of the country</u>. In this case, discrimination against Native Americans was a huge cultural push factor. While many Indians tribes had already started to assimilate into American culture of the time, they were still widely seen as alien nations that had no real place in the United States, and they were forced to move in order to give their lands to white settlers.

Answer:
The Teapot Dome scandal was a bribery scandal involving the administration of United States President Warren G. Harding from 1921 to 1923.
Explanation:
Secretary of the Interior Albert Bacon Fall had leased Navy petroleum reserves at Teapot Dome in Wyoming, as well as two locations in California, to private oil companies at low rates without competitive bidding. The leases were the subject of a seminal investigation by Senator Thomas J. Walsh. Convicted of accepting bribes from the oil companies, Fall became the first presidential cabinet member to go to prison; no one was convicted of paying the bribes.
Before the Watergate scandal, Teapot Dome was regarded as the "greatest and most sensational scandal in the history of American politics". It damaged the reputation of the Harding administration, which was already severely diminished by its controversial handling of the Great Railroad Strike of 1922 and Harding's veto of the Bonus Bill in 1922. Congress subsequently passed legislation, enduring to this day, giving subpoena power to the House and Senate for review of tax records of any U.S. citizen regardless of elected or appointed position. These resulting laws are also considered to have empowered the role of Congress more generally.
Answer:
The 1490's was a time of sailing, exploration, war, and trade. They competed for land, explored and invaded foreign lands, led conquests, and were victorious. This time was also full of powerful leaders, such as Hernando Cortés who led the expedition to mexico and Montezuma, who was the ruler of the Aztec Empire. The history of North America is very unique, it's a wide combination of European cultures and new American characteristics. North American's history began with the Vikings brief stint in 1000 A.D and continued through England's colonization of the Atlantic in the 17th century. This history laid the foundation of the United States of America. As more Europeans arrived, the Americas moved westward across the continent. During the expeditions, Americans were enticed by the lure of riches and opened land, and the desire to fulfill the nation's destiny.
