I left these shores, at Vancouver, a red-hot imperialist. I wanted the American eagle to go screaming into the Pacific. It seeme

d tiresome and tame for it to content itself with he Rockies. Why not spread its wings over the Phillippines, I asked myself? And I thought it would be a real good thing to do
I said to myself, here are a people who have suffered for three centuries. We can make them as free as ourselves, give them a government and country of their own, put a miniature of the American constitution afloat in the Pacific, start a brand new republic to take its place among the free nations of the world. It seemed to me a great task to which had addressed ourselves.

But I have thought some more, since then, and I have read carefully the treaty of Paris, and I have seen that we do not intend to free, but to subjugate the people of the Phillippines. We have gone there to conquer, not to redeem…

It should, it seems to me, be our pleasure and duty to make those people free, and let them deal with their own domestic questions in their own way…I am opposed to having the eagle put its talons on any other land.

Mark Twain in the New York Herald, October 15, 1900

40. Which of these situations was the direct result of the other three? * nations of Latin America won independence revolutions
Sonja [21]

Answer: Nations of Latin America won independence

Explanation:

As Creoles and Mestizos became discontented with Spanish rule, they began to demand more self-governance from the Spanish which would eventually boil over to them asking for independence.

This was made easier when Napoleon invaded Spain during the Napoleonic wars and severely weakened Spain's power to hold onto its colonies. Revolutions in North America such as the American Revolution spurred some colonies to seek independence such as Haiti from France which went through its own Revolution as well.

These three factors allowed nations in Latin America to seek their independence and led to many getting it.

Explain the reason why Canada is thinly populated although it is the second largest country in the world.
Ket [755]

Weather will be the primary reason. Despite its huge size. the real habitable area is probably less than 10% of its geographical size. Even Southern Ontario is deemed by many I know to be "too cold to live". 90% of Ontario and Quebec are simply inhabitable. I also personally think the entire Manitoba and Saskachewan are not suitable for human habitation unless we can create a way to simply hibernate during the 6 month winter (why there are so few people in Montana and North Dakota?) The fact that Montreal are thrive as a vibrant metropolis is already sort of a miracle and we don't see many such large cities with such severe weather. The only other case I can think of is probably Moscow.
