Which decisions made in the first months of a settlement prove critical to its outcome? Do they seem critical at the time they are made?
Hello. You forgot to add the necessary text for your question to be answered. The text is:
"When we talk about the European settling of North America, the word "first" creeps into the discussion very soon—the first ever, the first "permanent," the first "permanent" that still exists today, the first with women and children, the first Spanish/French/English, etc. While the discussion may force us to define our terms, a valuable exercise, we will begin this topic, SETTLEMENT, with "first arrivals"—Europeans who cross the Atlantic, disembark on land unsettled by Europeans, find a suitable site, and begin to build with the intention of staying, not merely exploring.
ISABELLA was a small town that Columbus ordered his men to build on the northeastern shore of Hispaniola (in present-day Dominican Republic) during his second voyage to the New World in 1493. Hunger and disease soon led to mutiny, punishment, disillusion, and more hunger and disease. Isabella barely survived until 1496 when Columbus ordered a new town built on the island as the Spanish capital (now Santo Domingo). Isabella was the "first of the Indies," declares Antonio de Herrera, the seventeenth-century historian who compiled this history of early New Spain from state archives.
[Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas, Historia general de los hechos de los Castellanos en las islas y tierra firme del Mar Oceano (General History of the Deeds of the Castilians on the Islands and Mainland of the Ocean Sea), Madrid, 1601-1615]
JAMESTOWN is justifiably called "the first permanent English settlement" in the New World—a hard-won designation. As historian Alan Taylor recounts, of the first 104 colonists who landed in April 1607, only thirty-eight survived the winter. Of the 10,000 who left England for Jamestown in its first fifteen years, only twenty percent were still alive, and still in Jamestown, in 1622. The first months of the colony were chronicled by John Smith, Edward Wingfield, and in this selection by George Percy, who twice served as the colony's governor. After writing several accounts to justify his actions as governor, Percy left Jamestown for good in 1612. (John Smith, who also felt compelled to defend his leadership, had left for good in 1609.)

PLYMOUTH. To American schoolchildren of many generations, the term "colonist" spurs images of stalwart Pilgrims setting sail on the Mayflower to land at Plymouth Rock—an epic tale of adventure and determination. And it's true. Unlike the single men—the courtiers, soldiers, and adventurers—who built Isabella, Jamestown, and many other early European settlements, the Pilgrims were skilled, hardworking, and self-disciplined. In addition, they settled as families for the most part, unique in Atlantic coast settlement at this point. Here we read from the journal of the colony's longtime governor, William Bradford, of the colonists' hard first year after landing in November 1620 to the first harvest in autumn 1621.
[William Bradford, History of Plymouth Plantation, written between 1630 and 1647]

Answer:
According to the text, we can see that the decisions made in the first months of settlement are critical to their result, however considering the period of time in which they were taken, they did not seem to be critical at the time of their creation.
Explanation:
The text shows how the first settlements in Aemrica had critical results, due to the decisions made by the colonizers. First, the colonizers decided to take an extremely long trip (from Europe to America), regardless of the conditions of the trip and accommodation necessary for them to arrive at their destination healthy. In addition, they settled in regions that they did not know and did not know if it would be possible to obtain all the healthy resources for the maintenance of their lives.
These decisions were very critical and had poor results, at least at the beginning of the settlements. However, they were taken over a period of time and within a historical context, in which people did not have many possibilities to plan these decisions in better ways

Explanation:
How did the Emancipation Proclamation change the purposes of the war?
Answer: The Emancipation Proclamation changed the meaning and purpose of the Civil War. The war was no longer just about preserving the Union— it was also about freeing the slaves. Foreign powers such as Britain and France lost their enthusiasm for supporting the CONFEDERACY.
Answer:
The war became about civil liberties and the constitutional right that all men were created equal. The emancipation proclamation brought together groups from both sides (for slavery and against) who then clashed together. It caused people to view the war as something other than just political and economic gain and focused on live and liberty itself.

On June 12, 2009, presidential elections were held in Iran, the favorite of which was the reform candidate Mir Hosejn Musavi. The next day, it was announced that the acting head of state, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, had received more than two-thirds of the votes. Mousavi marked the results from being falsified and his followers took to the streets. They wore green ribbons (the color of Mousavi's election campaign), uniting liberal clergy, secular intellectuals and national minorities (Musavi is of Azerbaijani origin). Hundreds of thousands of people marched through Tehran, where initially peaceful events grew into violence. The protests spread to other cities, and Iranians living abroad also joined. The core of the movement was students using social networks to organize demonstrations.
