Answer:

Virginia - Economic reasons

Explanation:

Considering the available options, the colony that matches correctly with the reason it was founded is "Virginia - Economic reasons."

Virginia was founded in 1607 under the leadership of John Smith while working for the London Company. The primary reason behind the founding was to ensure the joint-stock-owned Virginia Company of London makes profits.

Maryland - which was founded in 1633 by George and Cecil Calvert, was established for religious reason, specifically the Catholic Church

Pennsylvania - was founded in 1681by William Penn, and it was based for religious purpose, specifically for the Quakers

Georgia - was founded in 1732 by James Oglethorpe, and it was initially for economic reasons, mainly to settle debts.

All are true about the Constitutional Convention EXCEPT
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

it included representatives from all 13 states

Explanation:

A Constitutional Convention is a meeting where the decision to rewrite or revise the constitution is made and its members are called delegates.

It started on Friday 25th May 1787 and ended on Monday 17th September and was called to only ratify the Articles of Confederation which took place in great secrecy.

However, it did not include representatives from all 13 states as only 12 representatives were involved in the process.

Given that the Soviet Union fought in Afghanistan, why was it considered a proxy war?
a_sh-v [17]

It was a "proxy war" because it was a conflict in which the United States did not directly engage in battle.  

The USA and the USSR were on opposing sides, but it was  not a direct war between the USA and the USSR.  It was a "proxy war" within the larger Cold War situation.

Explanation:

The "Cold War" had that name because the two superpowers (the USA and USSR) did not fight a direct "hot" war against one another.  They engaged in a protracted stand-off against each other, and had an arms race of nuclear weapons and military strength.  They also supported "proxy wars" where they took opposing sides in conflicts happening in other parts of the world, such as the Six Day War in the Middle East in 1967, or the Soviet-Afghan war in the 1980s.

In the Soviet-Afghan War (1979-1989), <em>GlobalSecurity </em>has reported:  The United States supported the Afghans fighting for their country's freedom in the 1980s - as did other countries, including Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, China, Egypt, and the UK."  So it served as a proxy war in the larger Cold War conflict between the US and its allies over against the Soviet Union's sphere of influence.
