Answer:
That the chances of a specific person being chosen could increase if they all want the same person.
Early Greek philosopher Anixamander (ca. 610 – 545 BC) was a monist. That means he believed that ultimately there is just one sort of substance underlying all the different things we see in the physical universe. He put forth the idea that this single underlying substance of all things is something beyond our experience. He called it the ἄπειρον (<em>apeiron</em>), which means "the boundless" or "the limitless." Anaximander was reacting to the views of Thales, a previous thinker from his same town, Miletus, who had suggested that there was one underlying substance to all things, and that <u>water</u> was that essential element. Anaximander objected to Thales' thought, because water is something we all see and experience readily in the perceived world. He believed any underlying or base-level substance, from which water and any other physical stuff originated, had to be something beyond the boundaries of our present experience, or "the boundless."
One evaluation of Anaximander's views came from another Milesian philosopher who followed him: Anaximenes. Anaximenes saw the theory of Anaximander as dodging the question, "What is the main ingredient of all things in the universe." By saying, "It's boundless; it's something we don't know," had he really answered anything? So Anaximenes dismissed the view of Anaximander ... but didn't agree with Thales either. Anaximenes proposed that air was the underlying element of all physical phenomena.
You'll have to decide for yourself what you think of Anaximander's "boundless" theory.
The Appalachian Mountains acted as a barrier to further settlement to the west.
Explanation:
When the Europeans came to the east coast what is now the United States, they started to gradually settle in. More and more people were coming, the East Coast was developing more and more, but the people remained in that part, they were not moving westward. This started to cause problems as more and more people were flocking in, so the population density was rapidly increasing, and agricultural land was running low.
There was one major reason for this, the Appalachian Mountains. This large mountain range acts as a natural barrier, stretching roughly from north to south, separating the East Coast and the interior. This mountain range is pretty high, covered with dense forests, and there were numerous Indian tribes that were very angry to the white settlers, so the Europeans avoided crossing this range. It was only after the transportation improved and made the movement much easier and safer, that the people started to move in westwards.
The majority of the people that settled in the East Coast originated from:
- Great Britain
- Holland
- Ireland
