Sholpan [36]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The Netherlands was more democratic than most 17th-century European nations in that in those years, the Netherlands was formed by seven provinces under one confederation. People from each providence elected their rulers and the provinces were independentist but decently related to the other provinces.

marta [7]
Theophrastus was considered the father of botany in the approximate year of 300 BC. He was an ancient Greek thinker, a student of Aristotle and later, his successor. He wrote two large botanical works on the history of plants and on the causes of plants which were so comprehensive that 1,800 years went by before any newer discovery in botany was made. He established a theory of plant growth and the analysis of plant structure. He also related plants to their natural environment and identified, classified and described 550 different plants.

PLEASE ANSWER FAST A LOT OF POINTS What is difference in the perspectives of American and Cubans in regards to the Battle of San
Flauer [41]

The correct answer to this open question was the following.

The difference in the perspectives of Americans and Cubans in regards to the Battle of San Juan Hill is that the Cubans were tired of the Spanish monarchy presence in the Island of Cuba, but had no means to get rid of the Spaniards and its powerful army. The American point of view was that the United States had the exclusive right to intervene and take care of the issues in the American continent, not the Europeans, that is why the First US Voluntary Cavalry, led by Theodore Roosevelt, tried to recapture Santiago de Cuba. To accomplish this, they had to fight a severe resistance in the Battle of San Juan Hill on July 1, 1898.
