Explanation:
The Louisiana Purchase of 1803 brought into the United States about 828,000 square miles of territory from France, thereby doubling the size of the young republic. What was known at the time as the Louisiana Territory stretched from the Mississippi River in the east to the Rocky Mountains in the west and from the Gulf of Mexico in the south to the Canadian border in the north. Part or all of 15 states were eventually created from the land deal, which is considered one of the most important achievements of Thomas Jefferson’s presidency.
France in the New World
Beginning in the 17th century, France explored the Mississippi River valley and established scattered settlements in the region.
By the middle of the 18th century, France controlled more of the present-day United States than any other European power: from New Orleans northeast to the Great Lakes and northwest to modern-day Montana.
In 1762, during the French and Indian War, France ceded French Louisiana west of the Mississippi River to Spain and in 1763 transferred nearly all of its remaining North American holdings to Great Britain. Spain, no longer a dominant European power, did little to develop Louisiana during the next three decades.
Louisiana Territory Changes Hands
In 1796, Spain allied itself with France, leading Britain to use its powerful navy to cut off Spain from America. And in 1801, Spain signed a secret treaty with France to return the Louisiana Territory to France.
Reports of the retrocession caused considerable unease in the United States. Since the late 1780s, Americans had been moving westward into the Ohio River and Tennessee River valleys, and these settlers were highly dependent on free access to the Mississippi River and the strategic port of New Orleans.
U.S. officials feared that France, resurgent under the leadership of Napoleon Bonaparte, would soon seek to dominate the Mississippi River and access to the Gulf of Mexico. In a letter to U.S. minister to France Robert Livingston, President Thomas Jefferson stated, “The day that France takes possession of New Orleans…we must marry ourselves to the British fleet and nation.”
Livingston was ordered to negotiate with French Finance Minister Barbé-Marbois for the purchase of New Orleans.

Which of these is a pull factor for Cubans moving to Florida?
Fewer cattle ranches
Large Cuban community in Florida
Milder climate
Work available on citrus farms
Answer:
It really depends on the time period that you are being asked about, some people left because of the communism. If that is the case, I would say that a large Cuban community would definitely reassure people and encourage them to move. The climate between the two is truly not that different because they are only 3,000 miles apart.

Answer:
1. The Amazon rainforests is often called the "lungs of the planet" for its role in absorbing carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and releasing moisture into the atmosphere through the process of transpiration. Rainforests produce oxygen during the day via photosynthesis and absorb oxygen at night via respiration.
2. Manaus, Negro, Purus
3. The amazon flows through the Manaus City
4. The unique biodiversity of the Amazon rain forest has been threatened by deforestation caused by clear-cutting forests for hardwood timber, and to provide pastureland for cattle and crop farms. Human development, such as the construction of roads, has also contributed to deforestation.

Describe the American road to independence (the sequence of events leading to independence), stating how we went from the end of the French and Indian war to battling Great Britain, to outright war, and then to independence.
Answer:
In 1763, few would have predicted that by 1776 a revolution would be unfolding in British America.
The ingredients of discontent seemed lacking — at least on the surface. The colonies were not in a state of economic crisis; on the contrary, they were relatively prosperous. Unlike the Irish, no groups of American citizens were clamoring for freedom from England based on national identity. KING GEORGE III was not particularly despotic — surely not to the degree his predecessors of the previous century had been.
Furthermore, the colonies were not unified. Benjamin Franklin discovered this quite clearly when he devised the ALBANY PLAN OF UNION in 1754. This plan, under the slogan "Join, or Die," would have brought the colonial rivals together to meet the common threat of the French and Indians. Much to Franklin's chagrin, this plan was soundly defeated.
Commentary on the danger of disunity
Ben Franklin sketched this cartoon to illustrate the urgency of his 1754 Albany Plan of Union. He unsuccessfully tried to bring the colonies together to defend themselves against Indian and French threats.
How, then, in a few short years did everything change? What happened to make the American colonists, most of whom thought of themselves as English subjects, want to break the ties that bound them to their forebears? What forces led the men and women in the 13 different colonies to set aside their differences and unanimously declare their independence?
Much happened between the years of 1763 and 1776. The colonists felt unfairly taxed, watched over like children, and ignored in their attempts to address grievances. Religious issues rose to the surface, political ideals crystallized, and, as always, economics were the essence of many debates.
For their part, the British found the colonists unwilling to pay their fair share for the administration of the Empire. After all, citizens residing in England paid more in taxes than was asked of any American during the entire time of crisis.
Boston Massacre
The 1770 Boston Massacre was only one in a series of events that led American colonists to revolt against Britain.
This was not the first time American colonists found themselves in dispute with Great Britain. But this time the cooler heads did not prevail. Every action by one side brought an equally strong response from the other. The events during these important years created sharp divisions among the English people, among the colonists themselves, and between the English and the Colonists.
Over time, the geographic distance between England and the colonies became more and more noticeable. It took England time to respond to Colonial provocations and to administer the settled areas of America. Further, some now questioned how it could be that a tiny island nation could contain and rule the American continent.
Before long, the point of no return was reached.
The three basic economic questions societies face are (1) what goods and services to produce, (2) how to produce those goods and services, and (3) who will get them.
In one or two paragraphs, explain how supply and demand help societies determine their answers to these three questions. Be sure to provide an example of the effect of supply and demand on a society's answers.
Supply and demand are both very important to economic activity. Supply is the total amount of a particular good or service available at a given time to consumers at a given price.
Demand is a representation of a consumer's desire to purchase goods and services; it acts as a measurement of a consumer's willingness to purchase a specific good or service at a given price. These two economic forces influence each other; they are both important for the economy because they impact the prices of consumer goods and services within an economy and the quantities produced and consumed.

Answer:
1. Indications that a specific ruler had lost the Mandate of Heaven incorporated the poor insurgencies, invasions by foreign troops, drought, deprivation, floods, and earthquakes. Of course, drought or floods often led to deprivation, which in sequence caused the poor uprisings, so these elements were often linked.
2. Authority has changed in the last 20 years away from an tyrannical stlye and headed towards a more synergetic approach, stimulating greater team work, capicty, innovation and creativity. And a lot has changed since the turn of millennium.
3. The Mandate of Heaven sounds seemingly similar to the European notion of the "Divine Right of Kings," preposterously it funcitioned quite differently. It also says, "In the European model, God granted a particular family the right to rule a country for all time, regardless of the rulers' behavior.
