Answer: Map depicting the European exploration of the New World in the 15th and 16th centuries, including the voyages made by Christopher Columbus, John Cabot, Alonso de Ojeda and Amerigo Vespucci, Pedro Álvares Cabral, Ferdinand Magellan and Juan Sebastián del Cano, Giovanni da Verrazzano, Jacques Cartier, Sir Francis Drake, and others. The lines of demarcation represent an early division between the territory of Spain (to the west) and Portugal (to the east).
The motives that spur human beings to examine their environment are many. Strong among them are the satisfaction of curiosity, the pursuit of trade, the spread of religion, and the desire for security and political power. At different times and in different places, different motives are dominant. Sometimes one motive inspires the promoters of discovery, and another motive may inspire the individuals who carry out the search.
For a discussion of the society that engaged in these explorations, and their effects on intra-European affairs, seeEuropean history. The earliest European empires are discussed in ancient Greek civilization and ancient Rome.
The threads of geographical exploration are continuous and, being entwined one with another, are difficult to separate. Three major phases of investigation may nevertheless be distinguished. The first phase is the exploration of the Old World centred on the Mediterranean Sea, the second is the so-called Age of Discovery, during which, in the search for sea routes to Cathay (the name by which China was known to medieval Europe), a New World was found, and the third is the establishment of the political, social, and commercial relationships of the New World to the Old and the elucidation of the major physical features of the continental interiors—in short, the delineation of the modern world.
Explanation:
why is tubman most likely describe as brave?
Answer:
Tubman decided to help the Union Army because she wanted freedom for all of the people who were forced into slavery, not just the few she could help on the Underground Railroad. And she convinced many other brave African Americans to join her as spies—even at the risk of being hanged if they were caught.
Answer:
Because she freed over 300 enslaved African Americans, including her own parents. This was qualified as brave.
Explanation:
Harriet Tubman was born a slave. She escaped slavery and made a
promise to help others do the same. She made a total of 19 rescue trips back
down south. She never lost one of the 300 slaves she saved. She was skillful and brave. She even led her parents to freedom in 1857.

What problems did employees of the railroad
companies face?
Answer:
The problems that the employees of the railroad faced were that while they were laying tracks they were attacked by Native Americans. Also diseases disabled and killed many thousands of men a year
Explanation:
Answer:
All employee conditions during the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century were very harsh, America's railroad industry became mostly a freight-hauling industry as opposed to a passenger-carrying industry due to America's size and various population densities. Freight hauling was far more dangerous to railroad workers because they often had to work in between moving cars in order to link freight cars together or unlink them. They also had to ride on the cars in order to manually use the brakes to stop the train. Since railroad employee wages were also high, employers had to economize by spending less on trains and equipment and by hiring fewer employees. Fewer employees resulted in not having enough hands to perform a dangerous task, resulting in "many derailments and collisions"

"Slavery hung over the Philadelphia Convention, threatening to divide northern and southern
delegates. Even though slavery existed by law in some of the northern states in 1787, most
people there favored its end. Southerners were more unsure about whether to end slavery, both
because they had significantly greater numbers of slaves to deal with and because an end to
(slavery) had important economic implications. The result was compromise. The Founding
Fathers were more determined to fashion a new nation than they were to bring an end to slavery."

1. Explain how the US responded to domestic and international tensions?
Answer:
Explanation:
This study reexamines an empirical claim that is broadly accepted in international relations: during the Cold War U.S. foreign policy belligerence was influenced strongly by domestic factors. We develop a rational expectations theory that produces hypotheses that are at odds with that result. We test our hypotheses and report findings that are both consistent with our rational expectations theory and inconsistent with the “domestic effects” hypothesis. We thus conclude that international politics, rather than domestic politics, was the primary determinant of U.S. foreign policy behavior during the Cold War.
