Their reign marked the beginning of the Spanish Empire's expansion and their support played a significant role in the conquest of Mexico by Hernán Cortés.

    • THERE WERE NOW TWO CONVOYS LEAVING TO AND FROM SPAIN EACH YEAR

    • INTENDENTES REPLACED THE VICEROY SYSTEM

    • THE SPANISH COLONEIS COULD TRADE WITH OTHER EUROPEAN POWER AND THIER COLONIES

    Correct Answer
    A. RAIDED SPANISH SHIPS AND UNDEFENDED COASTAL TOWNS
    Explanation
    The correct answer suggests that the pirates of the Caribbean engaged in the activity of raiding Spanish ships and undefended coastal towns. This implies that the pirates were a significant threat to Spanish maritime trade and coastal settlements, causing disruption and potentially economic loss. The pirates likely targeted Spanish ships carrying valuable goods and took advantage of the lack of defense in coastal towns to carry out their raids. This activity would have had a significant impact on Spanish colonial interests in the Caribbean region.

    WHEN THE INDIAN POPULATION DECLINED DRASTICALLY IN THE CARIBBEAN THEY WERE REPLACED IN THE MINES BY

    • CHINESE LABORERS

    • AFRICAN SLAVES

    • IRISH IMMIGRANTS

    • RUSSIAN JEWS

    Correct Answer
    A. AFRICAN SLAVES
    Explanation
    When the Indian population declined drastically in the Caribbean, they were replaced in the mines by African slaves. This suggests that the African slaves were brought in to fill the labor gap left by the declining Indian population. The transatlantic slave trade was prevalent during that time, and African slaves were forcibly brought to the Caribbean to work in various industries, including mining. This answer aligns with historical records and the practice of using African slaves as a source of labor in the Caribbean during that period.

"New Spain" was the name given by the Spanish colonizers to the territory they claimed and settled in the Americas during the 16th century. This name was used to refer to the vast region that included present-day Mexico, Central America, and parts of the United States.

    The Santa Fe Ring was a conspiracy to deprive New Mexicans of their land. This refers to a historical event in which a group of powerful individuals in Santa Fe, New Mexico, conspired to fraudulently acquire land from local residents. They used various illegal tactics such as forgery, bribery, and intimidation to take control of valuable land and mineral rights. This conspiracy had a significant impact on the local population, leading to widespread land loss and displacement.

    The correct answer is "LOW PEOPLE O FLOW BIRTH".

    Correct Answer
    A. RATIONAL PEOPLE

    The term "Gente de Razon" refers to rational people. This can be inferred from the given options, as the other options do not align with the meaning of the term. "Low people, or flow birth" and "cleanliness/purity of blood" are unrelated to the term, while "converted Jew/Muslims" is a specific group of people and does not encompass all rational individuals. Therefore, the correct answer is "rational people."

    Explanation
    Cortes was the leader of the Spanish invasion of Mexico. He is known for his conquest of the Aztec Empire in the early 16th century. Cortes and his men arrived in Mexico in 1519, and through alliances with indigenous groups, military tactics, and the capture of the Aztec emperor Montezuma II, they were able to defeat the Aztec Empire and establish Spanish control over the region. Cortes' conquest of Mexico had a profound impact on the history and culture of the Americas.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    THE GREATEST FACTOR CONTRIBUTING TO THE SWIFT FALL OF THE INDIAN EMPIRES WAS

    • THE SUPERIOR IDEOLOGY OF THE SPANIARDS

    • THE RAVAGES OF DISEASE INTRODUCED BY THE SPANIARDS

    • THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE SPANISH ARTILLERY

    • INDIAN SUPERSTITION ABOUT HORSES

    Correct Answer
    A. THE RAVAGES OF DISEASE INTRODUCED BY THE SPANIARDS
    Explanation
    The swift fall of the Indian empires was primarily caused by the ravages of disease introduced by the Spaniards. When the Spanish arrived in the Americas, they brought with them diseases such as smallpox, measles, and influenza, which the indigenous populations had no immunity against. These diseases spread rapidly among the native people, resulting in high mortality rates and weakening the Indian empires. This allowed the Spaniards to easily conquer and control large territories, as the native populations were severely diminished and unable to effectively resist.

    Correct Answer
    A. THE PROMISE TO MARY / ENGAGEMENT

    The correct answer is "THE PROMISE TO MARY / ENGAGEMENT." "Palabra de casamiento" refers to the promise or commitment to marry someone, which is commonly known as an engagement. It is a Spanish phrase that signifies the intention to marry and the exchange of vows between two individuals. The other options mentioned in the question, such as a rumor about someone's marriage or a good name for a novel, do not accurately represent the meaning of "palabra de casamiento."

    • THE MAILA GALLEONS STOPPED SAILING FOR THE PHILIPPINES

    Correct Answer
    A. THE SPANISH COLONIES COULD NOW TRADE WITH EACH OTHER
    Explanation
    The Bourbon reforms allowed the Spanish colonies to engage in trade with each other. This was a significant change as previously, trade between the colonies was restricted and controlled by Spain. The reforms aimed to promote economic growth and development within the colonies by allowing them to establish direct trade routes and exchange goods and resources with one another. This change also reduced the dependence of the colonies on Spain for trade and opened up new opportunities for commerce and economic activity within the colonies themselves.

    Correct Answer
    A. SETTLEMENTS ESTABLISHED AND RUN BY THE FRIARS
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Settlements established and run by the friars." This answer refers to the missions that were established by the Spanish friars during the colonization of the Americas. These missions served as religious outposts where the friars would convert indigenous people to Christianity and also provide them with education and healthcare. The friars would oversee the day-to-day operations of these settlements, which often included agriculture, livestock, and other economic activities. These missions played a significant role in the Spanish colonization efforts and the spread of Christianity in the region.

    • A SERIES OF IDEAS WHICH UPHELD CHURCH AUTHORITY AND MONARCHISM

    Correct Answer
    A. A SERIES OF IDEAS WHICH QUESTIONED CHURCH AUTHORITY AND MONARCHISM

    The Enlightenment was a period in history characterized by a series of ideas that challenged the authority of the church and the concept of monarchism. During this time, philosophers and thinkers advocated for reason, individualism, and the separation of church and state. They questioned the traditional beliefs and practices upheld by the church and the power of monarchs, promoting concepts such as democracy, equality, and religious tolerance. This intellectual movement played a significant role in shaping modern Western societies and laying the foundation for democratic principles.

  • 20. 

    ACCORDING TO POPULAR MYTH MOCTEZUMA THOUGHT CORTES WAS:

    • THE RETURNING TEZCATLIPOCA

    • THE RETURNING HUITZILOPOCHTLI

    • THE RETURNING MICTLANTECUTLI

    • THE RETURNING QUETZALCOATL

    Correct Answer
    A. THE RETURNING QUETZALCOATL
    Explanation
    According to popular myth, Moctezuma believed that Cortes was the returning Quetzalcoatl. Quetzalcoatl was a deity in Aztec mythology who was believed to have left the land but promised to return. Moctezuma may have seen Cortes and his Spanish army as the fulfillment of this prophecy, leading him to initially welcome Cortes as a god-like figure. This belief ultimately played a role in the downfall of the Aztec empire as Cortes took advantage of Moctezuma's trust and eventually conquered the Aztecs.

    • OUT MIGRATION

    • DEATH BY DISEASE

    • DEATH BY WAR AND VIOLENCE

    • DEATH BY OVERWORK

    Correct Answer
    A. OUT MIGRATION
    Explanation
    The decline of the native population was caused by death by disease, death by war and violence, and death by overwork. However, out migration is not a reason for the decline of the native population. Out migration refers to people leaving a certain area, which does not directly contribute to a decline in population.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "A LAND NOT OCCUPIED BY A CHRISTIAN NATION IS DISCOVERED BY THE FIRST CHRISTIAN NATION IS TO COME ACROSS IT." This answer accurately reflects the Doctrine of Discovery, which was a legal principle used by European powers during the Age of Exploration. According to this doctrine, any land that was not occupied by a Christian nation could be claimed and colonized by the first Christian nation to discover it. This doctrine was used to justify the colonization and exploitation of indigenous peoples and their lands by European powers.

    • A SOCIAL HEIRRACHY BASED ON POLITICAL IDEOLOGY

    Correct Answer
    A. SOCIAL HIERARCHY BASED ON RACE
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Social hierarchy based on race." This means that the hierarchy in society is determined by a person's race or ethnicity. This concept suggests that certain races are superior to others and should hold higher positions of power and privilege. This theory has been widely discredited and is considered pseudoscientific because it lacks empirical evidence and promotes discrimination and inequality.

    • BISHOPS

    • ARCHBISHOPS

    • MONKS

    • PRIESTS

    Correct Answer
    A. MONKS
    Explanation
    The secular clergy refers to the clergy who are not members of a religious order and are involved in the day-to-day activities of the church. Bishops, archbishops, and priests are all part of the secular clergy as they hold positions of authority within the church hierarchy. However, monks are not part of the secular clergy as they belong to religious orders and live a contemplative and secluded life dedicated to prayer and meditation. Therefore, the correct answer is "monks".

These forts were primarily run and maintained by the Spanish Army. The soldiers stationed at the presidios were responsible for defending the settlements, maintaining law and order, and ensuring the Spanish control over the region. Therefore, the correct answer is the Spanish Army.

    • HARMONIOUS INTEGRATION WITH THE REST OF THE WORLD

    • NONE OF THE ABOVE

    Correct Answer
    A. EXPOSURE TO DIFFERENT FORMS OF GOVERNMENT AND ECONOMIC SYSTEMS FROM AROUND THE WORLD
    Explanation
    The Enlightenment was a period of intellectual and philosophical development in Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries. It was characterized by a focus on reason, science, and individual rights. One of the key factors that contributed to the Enlightenment was Europe's exposure to different forms of government and economic systems from around the world. This exposure allowed European thinkers to critically analyze and compare different systems, leading to the development of new ideas and theories. Without this exposure, the Enlightenment may not have occurred as European thinkers would not have had the necessary inspiration and knowledge to challenge existing beliefs and institutions.

    • JOSE MARIA MORELOS

    Correct Answer
    A. SIMON BOLIVAR
    Explanation
    Simon Bolivar is not a hero of Mexican Independence because he played a significant role in the liberation of several South American countries, including Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia, but not Mexico. Bolivar is often referred to as the "Liberator" for his efforts in achieving independence in these countries, but his involvement did not extend to Mexico's fight for independence.

    • NONE OF THE ABOVE

    Correct Answer

    In the 19th century, there was a shift from a predominantly pastoral subsistence barter economy to a more urban industrial wage labor system. This means that the economy transitioned from being primarily based on agriculture and self-sufficiency to one that relied on industrialization and paid labor. This change was likely driven by advancements in technology and the growth of cities.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "IT WAS THE US'S GOD GIVEN DESTINY TO SPREAD 'FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA'". Manifest Destiny was the belief held by many Americans in the 19th century that it was their divine mission to expand and spread American civilization from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. This belief fueled westward expansion, territorial acquisitions, and the displacement of Native American tribes. It was rooted in the idea of American exceptionalism and the belief in the superiority and moral obligation of the United States to expand its territory and influence.

    The caste system was a hierarchical system based on race, where individuals were assigned to a particular social group based on their birth and ancestry. This system determined a person's social status, occupation, and opportunities in life. It was primarily prevalent in ancient India, where individuals were divided into different castes or varnas based on their perceived purity or impurity of their bloodline. This system created a rigid social hierarchy, with Brahmins (priests and scholars) at the top and Dalits (untouchables) at the bottom.
