The immediate consequence of the Reconquista was the conquest of all remaining Muslim political polities and their entailing territories by Spanish Roman Catholic monarchs, Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile. Subsequently, Spain became increasingly potent as a dominant world military, naval and colonial power.
Muslims had been living on the Iberian Peninsula since 711 A.D. and interactions between the major religions of Christianity, Judaism and Islam, while sometimes violent and intolerant, had also been both culturally and intellectually productive. But by the 15th century, much of the peninsula had been re-conquered by Catholic forces, leaving the relatively weak and often fractured Nasrid state of Grenada as the only remaining Muslim polity. By 1492, that too had been vanquished, leaving Isabella and Ferdinand with virtually unquestioned dominion.
While the events of 1492 eventually helped to further unite Spain under a single ethno-religious identity, it also meant disaster for members of those minority religions previously protected under Muslim rule and then, to varying degrees, under Christian rule as well. Most importantly, 1492 marked the dramatic expulsion of all remaining Spanish Jews, the Sephardim, who were robbed of most their property and given the choice of either leaving or death.
With the religious zeal fostered by the Reconquista, Spain's monarchy zealously embarked on continued exploration and colonization projects, beginning with the Columbus expedition financed in 1492. Subsequent territorial acquisitions captured most of South and Central America for Spain, along with their raw materials and precious metals. The latter, in particular, ultimately made early modern Spain wealthy.
The two-party system has been present in America for decades, and it has become one of the most prominent features of our political system. However, it has also undergone significant changes.
During the Antebellum period, the two dominant parties (Republicans and Democrats) were divided over the issue of slavery. The Republican Party was created in the late 1840s and early 1850s, and they held mostly abolitionist views. On the other hand, the Democrats consisted mostly of Southerners and rural Westerners, and they were, for the most part, pro-slavery.
During the Gilded Age, the most pressing issue was that of modernization. The Democratic Party incorporated much of the platform of the Populist Party, which tried to challenge big businesses. However, the Republicans dominated the political system between 1896 and 1932.
In March of 1941, an amendment creating the State System and establishing the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, was accepted by the legislature.
This became the backbone for higher education in the state, which presented <u>the opportunity to develop nation-wide leadership through education.</u> The importance they gave to this opportunity can be reflected in the implementation of the Oklahoma Campus Compact (OkCC), <u>which organized college presidents to promote civic responsibility and engagement</u>. The state also pioneered the application of financial support programs for students.
Hope this helps!

En las misiones franciscanas de la Sierra Gorda hay unas pinturas que representan la vida de los pueblos indígenas. ¿Cuáles son los dibujos que tienen estas pinturas?
Los dibujos que representan la vida los indígenas mesoamericanos de la época de la colonización están localizados en las diferentes misiones o iglesias que construyeron los frailes franciscanos durante su misión evangelizadora por los territorios de la Sierra Gorda de Querétaro, en México.
Particularmente, estamos hablando de las misiones construidas por Junípero Serra a partir de 1751, hasta concluir la última en 1766.
Ante la resistencia de los indígenas por aceptar las enseñanzas de la religión Católica, Serra tuvo la gran idea de combinar elementos indígenas en la facha de las iglesias y en las pinturas del interior, con objeto de llamar la atención de los indígenas y que pusieran menor resistencia a la evangelización. Es por eso que existen esa combinación de elementos como el maíz, las flores y plantas de la región en esas pinturas y dibujos.
Las misiones construidas bajo el mando de Junípero Serra son Landa, Tancoyol, Jalpan, Concá, y Tilaco.
