Humans are naturally cruel and must be controlled by an absolute and powerful leader.

Thomas Hobbes (1588 – 1679) described his doctrine of the foundation of states and legitimate authorities in the book Leviathan. Hobbes claimed the need for a strong central authority to avoid the evil human nature and civil war. Hobbes postulates are the base of social contract theory.

anastassius [24]

Both, nationalism and Islamism, were ways that were used by the authorities of the newly formed countries for unification and strengthening the position of the nation, and the politicians as well.

Nationalism was based on ethnic level, and it was a way of creating despise, revolt, anger, towards the other nations. It was used as a unification method and for creating a nationalist core, and in this way the authorities were able to create a large mass of people that were willing to fight for their own nation, and had a deep hatred towards the other nations.

Islamism was based on religious level, and it was promoting unification on religious basis, but was also creating lots of hatred and aggression towards other religions. In this way, the authorities were trying to create a strong religious core in the country, but also brotherly alliances with the countries that practice the same religion.

Both, nationalism and Islamism were terrible towards the minorities, and the nationalist were killing and committing genocides on ethnic level, while the Islamist were doing the same but on religious level.

What conclusion can you draw from the fact that Spanish and Portuguese are the most commonly spoken languages in Latin America?
Sergio [31]

The correct answer is  C) Spain and Portugal colonized Latin American nations during the 15th and 16th centuries.

At the arrival of the Iberian conqueror, Latin America was not empty. In 1500 the indigenous population was more than 100 million (by 1810 this had diminished to 10 million "by means of civilization") and its level of development was greatly varied: some were living as tribal people; others, as the “Quechuas”, the “Aymaras”, the “Mayas” or the “Aztecas” had constituted high civilizations. During the colonial period, the domination was centered around the Spanish or Portuguese metropolis, coexisting with the local, almost absolute power, of the agent or the landowner. The encounters of the Spanish and Portuguese with the indigenous peoples of Central and South America in the early sixteenth century were to establish a pattern of conquest and subjugation which would persist throughout the colonial period.
