The correct anwer is C. Hittites and Aryans. Both groups of people are believed to have begun their expansion from territories now belonging to or close to Russia. Hittites originally occupied land near the Sea of Azov (present day Ukraine) while Aryans or Indo-Aryans were present in the area north of the Caspian Sea (nowadays Russia is a coastal state of that sea).
The Electoral College should remain the same for various reasons. First, if it were not for the Electoral College, large states, such as California, would largely control the nation. The Electoral College is designed to maximize states' rights. For example, if the U.S. were a direct democracy, Hillary Clinton would have been elected as our president, even though approximately 90% states supported Trump. With the Electoral College, each state has 2-3 Electors for each Political Party. If the majority of the state votes for Hillary, the democratic electors for that specific state get the vote. If the majority of the state votes for Trump, the Republican electors get the vote. The system is designed to maximize sates' rights and avoid impulsive, mass decisions.

The settlers did not want to do the work to they forced slaves to work for them. The settlers in the west made slavery increase due to the wanted of profit and the needing to survive.
