History

Nonamiya [84]3 years ago

Answer:

The main reason why Spain did not pose as great a threat to the colonies of Great Britain in America as that posed by France, despite having a much larger territory, was basically because of the place where the urban centers of each colony were located.

Thus, the New Spain colony had its capital in Mexico City, and it was in the territory of the present Mexico and on the west coast where the main cities of the colony were located.

Instead, the New France colony was located in what is now Quebec, Canada, much closer to the New England region, which in turn was the main British colonial location on the continent.

Therefore, the French expansionist interests clashed directly with the British, while the Spanish (not having such closeness) did not have as many territorial conflicts with the British.

The purpose of Freedom Rides was to _____.
Lana71 [14]

The correct answer is C.

Freedom Rides were performed during the Civil Rights Movement and started in 1961, in the route Washington D.C.-New Orleans. Activists organized themselves to use interstate buses that communicated different Southern cities, in order to <u>check whether segregation had been abolished or not in public transport interstate facilities</u>, as the US Supreme Court decisions <em>Morgan v. Virginia</em> (1946) and <em>Boynton v. Virginia </em>(1960) had stated.

They could see in person how Southern states had ignored those decisions and how segregation continued ocurring.
