Answer:

The main reason for the lack of industrialization in Latin America compared to North America was that colonial empires (Spain, Portugal, France, the UK) did not want their colonies to become self-sufficient.

Explanation:

The lack of industrialization in Latin America (as well as the Caribbean) can be mainly traced down to the fact that <u>colonial empires did not want their colonies to become self-sufficient</u>. <u>Colonies were used as a means of getting cheap, raw materials, which would then go to the mother country. There, people would turn the raw materials into finished goods, which would then be sold back to the colonies for a profit.</u> After many Latin American nations broke free, they had very little to start off, leading to a cycle of perpetual poverty, which continues to this day. A prime example of this in action is in Haiti, which broke free from France in 1804. Haiti was mainly a sugar plantation, and because of this, they didn't have much else industry other than what was necessary to harvest cash crops. As a result, it was extremely difficult to find work, which led to instability, corruption, and a cycle which has repeated itself to this day. This mercantilist mindset is the main reason why many countries in Latin America have a poor industrial base.

Place a checkmark next to each reason the colonists protested British taxation:
nydimaria [60]

"Taxation without representation is theft" a common saying that justifies the colonists a lot. They also believed that as British citizens, they had their rights violated. As a protest, they started buying from others instead of from Britain, most likely for a cheaper price.

So the correct answers would be number 1, number 2 and number 4.

Arada [10]

The correct answer is C) Resolution.

Based on these words, Paine and Benjamin Franklin share an appreciation for the virtue of resolution.

This was an inspirational quote from Thomas Pain about resolution, the capacity of the colonists to stand tall and act to support the American Revolutionary War of Independence against the British monarchy.

He uses ethos, the appeal to emotions to try to convince his audience.

It refers to the challenges in life and how we respond to confront them and overcome them.

Thomas Pain was the creator of "Common Sense," a pamphlet in colonial times that invited the American colonists to support independence from Britain.
