Answer:

C. Many have been replaced by representative forms of government.

Explanation:

A town meeting is a type of of direct democratic rule, utilized essentially in parts of the United States – mainly in New England – since the seventeenth century, where most or every one of the individuals from a community come together to legislate policy and budgets plans for local government.

This is a town-or city-level gathering where choices are made, interestingly with town corridor gatherings held by state and national government officials to address inquiries from their constituents, which have no basic leadership control.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

Bacon's Rebellion was caused by:

A) favoritism and corruption among colonial elites

Explanation:

According to history, "Governor William Berkeley used new trade rules to increase his wealthy friends’ fortunes" while refusing to officially back the usurpation of the land of the friendly natives on the borders of Virginia.  These moves angered "Nathaniel Bacon, who had recently arrived in Virginia and was Berkeley’s cousin by marriage."  He termed the situation as "the governor’s disloyalty and unfairness."

Then, in 1676, Nathaniel Bacon led Virginia settlers to challenge the authority of Governor William Berkeley as he continued to protect the interests of the native Americans in the western frontier.  The Virginia settlers had believed that the western frontier belonged to them and not to the original native Americans whom they regarded as "barbarous heathen."  But, Governor William did not want to legitimize their demand with political authority.  His stand further infuriated Nathaniel Bacon, who decided to lead an armed rebellion to sack the natives from their land and later against the Governor, following his proscription of the rebellious group.

Explain what is meant by the statement “...any Indian who received news of the Spaniards could have also have easily received th
jolli1 [7]

The quote “... any Indian who received news of the Spaniards could have also easily received the infection” refers to the fact that when the Spanish explorers advanced into Central America, the diseases they were carrying often spread faster than them, including ahead of them.

The context is the so-called Columbian Exchange (after Christopher Columbus), which is the large exchange of animals, food, culture, people, techniques, and diseases that took place between Native Americans (or Indians) and Europeans after 1492.

The quote focuses on one particular aspect of this exchange: the spread of infections. While the Indians did contaminate the Europeans with some of their diseases, like syphilis, many infections destroyed Native American lives because they had not developed a resistance to them like Europeans did. These included measles and smallpox, which were introduced in America through the Caribbean in the early 16th century.
