Answer:

The Texas oil boom, sometimes called the gusher age, was a period of dramatic change and economic growth in the U.S. state of Texas during the early 20th century that began with the discovery of a large petroleum reserve near Beaumont, Texas. The find was unprecedented in its size (worldwide) and ushered in an age of rapid regional development and industrialization that has few parallels in U.S. history. Texas quickly became one of the leading oil-producing states in the U.S., along with Oklahoma and California; soon the nation overtook the Russian Empire as the top producer of petroleum. By 1940 Texas had come to dominate U.S. production. Some historians even define the beginning of the world's Oil Age as the beginning of this era in Texas.[1]

Which of the following was not an advantage held by Spaniards over meso American people

denis-greek [22]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not attach the options for this question. Without the options, we do not what was not an advantage held by the Spaniards over the Native Mesoamerican people.

So the only thing that we can do for you is to answer based on our knowledge of this topic regarding the advantages that the Spaniards indeed had over the indigenous people.

The Spanish conquistadors had metal weapons, fire weapons, armors, and horses, that represented major advantages against the primitive weapons of civilizations such as the Aztecs.

Let's have in mind that in Mesoamerica there were no horses. It was the Europeans who brought horses to America. Natives such as the Aztecas have never seen a horse and they compare it to something similar they had seen before, a deer. Horses for the Spaniards represented an advantage in the purposes of conquest because horses can carry a heavy load and were used in battle.

And regarding fire weapons, native Indians could not compete against that powerful weapon.

how was the Berlin Wall a symbol for a world divided between the two camps of nato and the Warsaw Pact

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The Berlin Wall divided Berlin in two parts: East Berlin and West Berlin. The former was the capital of the communist German Democratic Republic, and the latter was a western, democratic enclave born from the occupation zones of the Western Allies after WWII.

Berlin was a symbol of the division of Europe and the confrontation between capitalism and Western democracy on one side, and communism, on the other side. Both parts of the city were sort of showrooms for their systems. American troops were stationed in the western part, and Soviet troops were stationed on the eastern part. The wall ran along the boundaries of the former Soviet zone with the western occupation zones. So, here NATO and Warsaw Pact forces stood side by side. For all these reasons, it´s said the Berlin Wall was a symbol of a Cold War world divided in two camps.

Which is more <br> 1 gallon or 5 quarts

Paul [167]

5 quarts is more because, in 1 gallon there is 4 quarts, not 5. So 5 quarts means 1 gallon and a quart. 1 gallon and a quart is greater than just 1 gallon. Hope this helps! :) Please mark me as the brainliest!
