Juan Ponce de Leon did exploration for SPAIN.
He was comissioned as governor of Puerto Rico by King Ferdinand. In 1513, Ponce de León led the first known European expedition to La Florida.

The two actions by the Federal Government that were attempts to preserve the Union in the face of a bitter quarrel over slavery are Missouri Compromise and Compromise of 1850. Option B is correct.
The Missouri Compromise constituted the legislation that admitted Maine to the United States as a free state along with Missouri as a slave state, thus maintaining the balance of power between North and South in the United States Senate.
The Compromise of 1850 consists of five laws passed in September of 1850 that addressed the issue of slavery.
Answer/Explanation:
Under the AOC each state got one electoral vote for each senator and the number of representatives in the state.
Virginia basically wanted a rule where "<em>the more people in the state the more votes"(house of representatives)</em>
New Jersey wanted the same amount of votes from one house(the senate) no matter the population of the state.
Roger Sherman came up with the great compromise that solved this issue. He created a house of representatives that voted based on the population of the state. He also created a senate with equal representation for each state.
