History

Answer:

1. Definition:

The verb form of the word "import" means to bring goods or services into a country from another country.  The noun form can mean the goods or services that are so brought from another country.  The ordinary meaning is the "essence" or "meaning" of a statement or an action.  But for our purpose here, imports refer to goods and services brought in from another country and the accompanying action.

2. Usage of the word "import" in a sentence, especially about Texas in the 1830s:

'Texas served as the center of Mexican imports before the 1830s, but this was disrupted in 1846 following the American blockade of Mexican ports mainly located in Texas.'  This blockade made it difficult for Mexico to import goods through Texan ports.  It also affected its ability to fight the war that erupted in 1846 and helped to end Mexico's control of the US-annexed Texas.

Explanation:

Before gaining some period of independence in the 1830s, Texas was part of Mexico.  However, Mexico lost Texas to the US following the war between the two neighbors.  Political and financial instability hampered Mexico's ability to prosecute the war with America, worsened by the blockade of Mexican ports in Texas.

What social changes could be used to explain the Salem Witch Trials?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

gossip, religion, lies, betrayal,  

Explanation:

A lot of social changes and events occurred that caused the Salem witch trials. The current religion at the time was puritanism, they were a very strict and proper group of people. They believed that everyone was born evil and they their life was to listen and obey the word of god to get into heaven. Most stories go back saying the cause of the Salem Witch trials began by a slave named Tituba, who was teaching the local girls games/answers through witchcraft. Once this outbreak occurred many of the girls began to act strangely and accused people of bewitching them. All you had to say was so and so is a witch and that person was on trial for witchcraft. You didn't even have to be  necessarily be involved if a name was asked a name was said. If you went against the word of God or questioned why someone was a witch or defended them you were also accused of being a witch. I hope this helps better understand the Salem witch trials.
