Christmas is literally “the mass for Christ”, the day on which Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus. The western date for Jesus' birth is quite arbitrary. It was chosen by Pope Leo I, bishop of Rome (440-461), to coincide with the Festival of the Saturnalia, when Romans worshipped Saturn, the sun god. Saturnalia was a lawless, drunken time in Rome where literally anything was okay — this was the original Purge, in which laws were suspended for a brief stretch of time.
Saturn, the Roman god of agriculture, liberation and time (and parties!), was celebrated at what is perhaps the most famous of the Roman festivals, the Saturnalia, It was a time of feasting, role reversals, free speech, gift-giving and revelry. (read: gender-bending sex, drinking, telling people off, trading gifts and doing whatever you want).
After solstice, the darkest night of the year, the renewal of light and the coming of the new year was celebrated in the later Roman Empire at the Dies Natalis of Sol Invictus, the “Birthday of the Unconquerable Sun,” on December 25
When you celebrate Christmas you celebrate many other gods not Jesus, or the white Jesus sure.

Answer: the LEAST effective replacement for the phrase "used great power": D) squandered great power
Explanation:
The phrase "used great power" <u>means that the Sacramento region </u><u>had great power/ great influence </u><u>in the decade of the 1850s.</u>
So <em>"applied great power", "exerted great power" and "employed great power" </em><u><em>could be considered synonyms of this phrase. </em></u>
The phrase "squandered great power" would be wrong to use in this context, because "to squander" means to "waste" and Sacramento wasn't wasting its power - quite the contrary, as it's said in the text Sacramento had a powerful voice -> "<em>Sacramento's influence was in large part due to its growth in commerce</em>, particularly that portion related to transportation".
