Answer:

The Industrial Revolution saw the rise of factories in need of workers. Children were ideal employees because they could be paid less, were often of smaller stature so could attend to more minute tasks and were less likely to organize and strike against their pitiable working conditions.

Which of these statements regarding the Spanish colonization of Texas is MOST accurate?
Alex

Answer:

The statement regarding Spanish colonization of Texas that is most accurate is B) Presidios were built near missions to offer military protection.

Explanation:

Presidios were small enclosed forts where a small contingent of military officers and personnel were assigned in New Spain, in the region of what is today the Southwestern United States. They were located close to missions so the miliary officers could provide them with some defense against Native American communities that may have been hostile or from roaming pirates and convicts and escaped slaves, some of whom would also become residents of the presidios. There was not a lot of financial or administrative support for the presidios so they were generally highly autonomous and developed their own local means of survival, taking on local characteristics. They were not just located in Texas. They are found archaeologically in California, New Mexico, and Arizona as well for example.
