The correct answer is B) by providing more labor resources.
Empire-building benefited farm production by providing more labor resources.
Empire-building allowed the Emperors to expand their territories conquering new lands and having more servants to serve the king. This also meant having more labor resources, more hands ready to work in the farm fields to grow more crops, to produce more food for the empíre and trading purposes. Better crops and food production meant more trade, and more trade translated into more income and resources for the empire.
Answer:
I believe the word that best illustrates Crusoe's attitude toward the island is:
D. Contente
Explanation:
The major theme in the novel "Robinson Crusoe" is contentment vs desire/ambition. Crusoe is an ambitious man. He is never contented with what he has or where he is. He craves for more, which leads him to adventures. However, at a certain point, his ambition ends up casting him away to a desert island, where he has to develop skills to survive. He is now far from any sort of comfort or company, having to fend for himself and learn the tricks of nature.
After two years in the island, Crusoe has happily accepted his situation. That is what "contented" means. He is satisfied with the life he has, and seemed to have abandoned the hope of being rescued and taken back to society. A person who is satisfied, who accepts what they have, who feels happy and at ease about it, is contented.
Note: joyful is also related to being happy. It means causing or expressing great happiness. We can see in the excerpt that Crusoe is not really joyful. He expresses a calm happiness. He is not delighted about his situation as he would be if it were something he truly wished. He accepts that it is what it is, and he is satisfied with it.
Despite losing their strategic positions, the battle was a significant morale-builder for the inexperienced Americans, convincing them that patriotic dedication could overcome superior British military might. It also was a good training for the colonists.
