History

Answer:

Gold is what truly drove me to explore in the first place.  I was familiar with the idea of Mercantilism, which is the idea that there is only so much wealth in the world, and that to make your kingdom strong you must have more gold and wealth than the other kingdoms.  However, I also desired to seek riches for my personal wealth.  In my time, government rulers would send explorers to find riches like land, spices, gold and  other resources that would make their country rich and important.  An example of that would be how Christopher Columbus explored for gold and wealth to bring back to Spain.  He traded with the indigenous people for gold at a great profit for Spain.

     God and religion were also a popular motive for exploration during my time.  With Europe Christianized, people wanted to spread the Gospel to the rest of the world, because Europeans had always seen spreading Christianity as a good thing.  Colonization would later become a race to convert indigenous people to a particular brand of Christianity.  Religion was also an excuse for enslaving or exploiting non-Christians which allowed kingdoms to participate in the slave trade.

vichka [17]

Answer:

Among the question given on the question the correct answers are given below.

1. Support the cause of democracy

2.Switch to manufacturing military goods

3.Work hard and fast

Explanation: The speech was given known as the "Arsenal of the democracy" which was given on December 29, 1940 by the US President Franklin Roosevelt. On his speech he tried to justify why United States should be helping their European Allies against the Axis power of Germany. He said that if the Axis power and Germany control the European and Asian countries eventually there would be a cold relation with Germany as the ideology of the USA and Germany were completely different.

Moreover, if Germany gain the control then US naval fleet in the Atlantic and Pacific would have a hostile rival.On the other hand,America never support the fascism of the Hitler.As a result, to save democracy America should give a hand to their European neighbors.

So, he appealed to American people to switch to manufacturing military goods which is helpful for the war.He also appealed them to work hard and fast.

But his most important appeal was to support the cause of democracy.
