Answer:

In my opinion that were the geographical position and large number of great sailors and explorers.

Explanation:

Even in the first half of 15th Century Portugal started spreading its maritime strength, which was their main focus when it comes to development of the country. Of course, the position of the country, that is located on the shores of Atlantic Ocean allowed the sailors from this country to gain certain knowledge. Of course, with the technological improvements of that period they started sailing on the open sea. Of course, all of this wouldn't be possible without great sailors and explorers that opened the Age of Exploration. Among them the most famous were Dias, Vasco de Gama and Pedro Cabral.

If you could have asked president Hoover about the plight of bank failure victims, what would you ask?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Mr. President, considering the fact that the welfare of the citizens is the government's primary responsibility and a huge financial breakdown such as the one the citizens have just experienced can have a devastating effect on the economy and impact negatively on your leadership, don't you think the poor affected citizens deserve some intervention from the government?

Explanation:

From the excerpt, it is clear that the financial crash in the United States Stock market was caused by the greed of investors. However, there were still some hardworking citizens who merely saved their hard-earned monies in the banks, but lost them when the banks closed up. Definitely, they deserved some help from the government.

President Hoover's belief that it was not the function of the government to regulate businesses was flawed as it would be wrong for the government to simply sit by and watch the economy crash.
