Answer:

b. To explore and search for gold.

Explanation:

Hernando de Soto was a Spanish explorer and left Spain along with a large number of men (enough to see nine ships) to explore the west coast of Florida and find wealth for the Spanish crown and himself. The main objective was to find gold, or another precious metal that would provide a great profit for such a long and tiring trip.

De Soto also explored regions elsewhere in America, including South America. Most expeditions had the same objective of seeking wealth.

What political role did women play in the transformation of South Africa from the 1970's to the 1920s essay
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Although women have been involved to some degree in all kinds of organisations in South Africa, from church groups to liberation movements, in many ways it was the trade union movements that became the spawning ground for women organisers and in which women first rose to positions of importance in South Africa. Trade union actions such as strikes also served to politicise some women.

The organising of women began in the 1920s, principally in the laundry, clothing, mattress, furniture and baking industries. While several black national federations were formed and dissolved, the one that endured in spite of the new labour legislation of the 1920s was the Non-European Trade Union Federation, formed in 1928.

What did the Supreme Court decide in the Dred Scott decision?
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The Dred Scott decision was the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling on March 6, 1857, that having lived in a free state and territory did not entitle an enslaved person, Dred Scott, to his freedom. In essence, the decision argued that, as someone's property, Scott was not a citizen and could not sue in a federal court.
