Answer:

Portugal ⇒ Ruled east of the line of demarcation

After the New World was rediscovered by the European powers and saw competition between the Spanish and the Portuguese, Pope Alexander VI came up with a Line of Demarcation to divide the New World. Portugal was to rule over every land east of the line which is why they colonized Brazil.

Russia ⇒ Controlled what is Alaska today.

Russia controlled what is Alaska today but then decided to sell it to the United States rather than risking the British taking it by forced and adding it to Canada.

Britain ⇒ Controlled the area of today's eastern United States.

Britain ruled the eastern part of today's United States and it was here that they established the colonies that became the first states of the United States of America when these colonies defeated the British in the American Revolution.

Spain ⇒ Ruled west of the land of demarcation

As explained above, Pope Alexander VI came up with a Line of Demarcation. This allowed Spain to rule lands west of this line such that they gained colonies such as Mexico and countries to the west of South America.

Culture has the ability to shape three types of interactions for members of the group. Using four or more complete
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

- interactions between group members

- interactions with people outside of the group

- interactions with the environment

Explanation:

The culture is the most powerful tool of any society. It is unique to each group, and it is what defines that group of people. The culture has the ability to shape up three types of interactions:

- interactions between group members

- interactions with people outside of the group

- interactions with the environment

The interactions between the group members are good in general, as they belong to the same culture and have lot of similarities. An example can be the interaction between two neighbors.

The interaction with people outside of the group can go either way though. If there are some similarities between the cultures then the people will most probably become close, but if there are big differences, it will most probably cause conflict. An example can be the interaction between a Catholic Mexican and Muslim Arab.

The interaction with the environment is crucial for any culture, and every culture has special and different interaction with it, depending on its characteristics. An example of this can be that the Celtic people considered the trees to sacred, and some trees such as the willow for forbidden for cutting as it was of highest rank.
