Answer:
B, look at explanation for reasoning
Explanation:
C) is incorrect because they were created by the Spanish government
A) is incomplete, and B is the main importance. If this has a different completion than 'they allowed the Native', there could be multiple correct answers?
B)
They were <em>not </em>the first settlements of California--however, they were the first European settlements, so I assume that this is what the answer was implying
The Spanish California missions were important as an effort to convert the local peoples/the Native Americans living there to Catholicism. They were also an effort to grow European territory.
The missions were the main way Spanish influence grew in California (because they [the Spanish] had missions, and there were no prior European settlements to represent them).
Inequality
White people owned things that was more advanced than what Blacks had
Answer: B. Free Silver
Explanation:
Free Silver was an economic policy whereby the money supply of the United States would have been based on both silver and gold with silver having a fixed exchange ratio to gold.
This idea was very popular with rural farmers in the South-west of the United States as it would have given them more profit from farming and an easier way to pay off debt. The Democrats under William Jennings Bryan supported this but were defeated in every election where they stood for it.
