History
1 answer:
nordsb [41]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The United States desired the West because the West coast would open up the United States to Asian markets.  Eastern ports connected the U.S with Europe.  The West meant we could expand our trading power globally.  

The population was rapidly growing in the East, Americans were running out of room, they had to move West.

Economic hardships (panics and depressions) in the East pushed Americans to the West.

The West had abundant,  inexpensive, and often free, land. This not only attracted eastern Americans, but poor, landless Europeans as well.

The British had their eyes on the West as well.  Prior to the Annexation of Texas, Britain had established a friendly relationship with the Republic of Texas.  They were interested in trading with Texas and keeping the U.S from expanding West.  In order to limit British influence in America, the United States decided to Annex Texas in 1845.

Name three innovations/technologies that put the Maya, Inca, or Aztecs "ahead of their time".
Furkat [3]

The Aztecs built their settlement in a swamp in what is now Mexico City and when the Spanish arrived they thought it more spectacular than Venice. The Aztecs were fantastic warriors but they were also excellent farmers: because they had stumbled on hydroponics, their floating fields produced an abundance of nutrients in the food they were growing.

The Mayas built some of the tallest buildings of the ancient world – without the use of the wheel, or even horses. The pyramid El Castillo in Chichen Itza is the Mayan calendar, literally set in stone. 

<span>the Incas lived in the mountains of South America and had to cross very deep ravines they invented the world's first suspension bridges in spite not having hemp or sisal ropes. They made their bridges out of twisted fibers of long stemmed grass, another amazing feat of ingenuity from an inspired region.</span>

<span>Hope this help :)..........my hand hurts.</span>
