What problems arose during the settlement of the frontier among farmers?
Answer:
The answer to this question is quite extensive, and it begins with understanding that as settlers began to farm the newly colonized lands beyond the East Coast, towards the West, there were several issues that torubled them.
First, there was lots of land to take from, but at a great expense, since farmers who settled far from the already civilized East Coast, were basically at the mercy of nature, Native Americans, and the resources they could procure for themselves.
Second, during the 1800´s, as the railroad systems began to expand, and new horizons to open up, small farmers also came to crash against the realities of industrialization and the growth of big businesses that were able to surpass them in production. This led to trouble as these smaller farmers were forced to seek ways to balance out the equation. As such, not only were they forced to adapt to whatever the railroad companies wanted to charge them to transport their products, but in order to compete, they had to start taking out loans from banks, which later they were not able to repay because sales for small farmers did not go as well, with the bigger businesses hugging the available markets.
Finally, the biggest problem that arose for these farmers was the issue that past the frontier, and near it, they were completely at the mercy of Native tribes, especially hostile ones, who would ravage farmers´ lands in order to push them out of their territories.
Another problem that must be noted is that with the expansion of the frontier, the fever for gold and silver also took people over, so that farmers had to face land issues not just with Native tribes, but also with settlers whose interests were different from agriculture.
These are only a few of the problems that were faced by settlers, especially farmers, as they settled the Western frontier.

How did early renaissance artists learn to create more realistic art than their predecessors
Early Renaissance artists learned to create more realistic art through the use of perspective, realistic proportions, foreshortening, sfumato, and chiaroscuro. They also studied anatomy to accurately depict the human body.
Explanation:During the Early Renaissance, artists began to reject the Byzantine style of religious painting and strove to create realism in their depiction of the human form and space. This aim toward realism began with Cimabue and Giotto, and reached its peak in the art of the "Perfect" artists, such as Andrea Mantegna and Paolo Uccello, who created works that employed one point perspective and played with perspective for their educated, art knowledgeable viewer.
In addition to perspective, Renaissance artists also developed other techniques to create more realistic art. They used realistic proportions, foreshortening (exaggerating the part of an object closer to the viewer), sfumato (gradual blending of tones to create a sense of depth), and chiaroscuro (contrasting light and dark to create a sense of volume and dimension).
Furthermore, Renaissance artists were influenced by the rediscovery of classical texts and ideas during the period. They studied anatomy through dissections and incorporated their knowledge of human anatomy into their artwork, resulting in more accurate depictions of the human body.

Maryland was different from the other English colonies because?
Answer:
Maryland was different from the other English colonies because it was founded on behalf of Roman Catholic colonists.
Explanation:
In 1631, George Calvert, a British nobleman, asked the British Crown for the right to own and govern the Chesapeake Bay region. Calvert was a Catholic and wanted a colony in America where the British of that religion, discriminated against in their country (mostly Protestant), could practice their worship. His request was accepted by King Charles I of England in 1632. However, Calvert would die in April of the same year. Charles I then ceded to Calvert's son, Cecilius, Maryland ("Lands of Mary"), in homage to Queen Henrietta Marie of France, wife of Charles I. Cecilius was also a Catholic, and sent the first settlers, who landed in 1634 in the promotory that is directly north of the Potomac River.
Cecilius was obliged to obey the customs of the Anglican Church. He appointed his brother Leonard governor of the colony, and at the same time encouraged the settlers to request laws and help him in the administration. In 1649, the Colonial Assembly passed a law guaranteeing the free exercise of cults that accepted the dogma of the Trinity. This attracted numerous Catholics from other American colonies, especially from Virginia, but it constituted a barrier for members of other Religions, like the Jews.

The "Founding Fathers" focused heavily on unalienable rights being guaranteed by the new United States government because of
A)
growing conflicts between the north and south.
B)
abuses Americans endured as a colony of Great Britain.
C)
abuses Americans endured under the Articles of Confederation.
D)
abuses the colonies endured after the Constitutional Convention.
...?
Final answer:
The Founding Fathers emphasized unalienable rights in response to the abuses endured under British colonial rule, leading to the emphasis on life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in the United States government. ( Option D)
Explanation:
The Founding Fathers focused heavily on unalienable rights being guaranteed by the new United States government because of the abuses Americans endured as a colony of Great Britain.
The historical context of American independence reveals a deep-seated concern for protecting life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness from government overreach.
This concern was cultivated during the colonial period, when Americans experienced a series of abuses under British rule, such as the imposition of taxes without consent and interference with self-governance, which contributed to the perception that the social contract with Britain had been broken.
As a result, when independence was declared in 1776, and a new government was envisaged, protecting these fundamental rights was paramount.
How and why did Theodore Roosevelt change US policy toward Latin America?
Theodore Roosevelt changed US policy toward Latin America with the Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine, endorsing intervention to protect US interests and prevent European influence in the region.
Theodore Roosevelt significantly changed US policy toward Latin America by implementing the Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine. This policy was predicated on the belief that the United States had the authority to intervene in Latin American affairs to protect its economic and political interests. The 'big stick' philosophy endorsed the use of military intervention as a means to enforce this policy, especially to prevent European powers from collecting debts in a way that could undermine US predominance in the Western Hemisphere. Roosevelt's actions were motivated by the necessity to prevent European intervention, protect American investments, and maintain stability close to US shores. His approach to Latin American policy was later contrasted by Franklin D. Roosevelt's Good Neighbor Policy, which aimed to reduce intervention and improve relations with Latin American countries.
