What motivated John Cabot to explore?

Answers

Answer 1
John Cabot (about 1450–98) was an experienced Italian seafarer who came to live in England during the reign of Henry VII. In 1497 he sailed west from Bristol hoping to find a shorter route to Asia, a land believed to be rich in gold, spices and other luxuries.
Answer 2

Answer:

John Cabot was a Venetian explorer and navigator known for his 1497 voyage to North America, where he claimed land in Canada for England. After setting sail in May 1498 for a return voyage to North America, he disappeared and Cabot's final days remain a mystery.

In 1497, Cabot traveled by sea from Bristol to Canada, which he mistook for Asia. Cabot made a claim to the North American land for King Henry VII of England, setting the course for England's rise to power in the 16th and 17th centuries.

ike Columbus, Cabot believed that sailing west from Europe was the shorter route to Asia. Hearing of opportunities in England, Cabot traveled there and met with King Henry VII, who gave him a grant to "seeke out, discover, and finde" new lands for England. In early May of 1497, Cabot left Bristol, England, on the Matthew, a fast and able ship weighing 50 tons, with a crew of 18 men.

A unique aspect of the ancient Ethiopian civilization was the fact that it adopted the form of Christianity practiced in Egypt.

The kingdom of Aksum was a great Empire that inhabited the territory of Ethiopia, Africa. Its coins were very special for the people of Aksum in that reflected its culture, its most important figures, and rulers. Carved with Greek and Ethiopian inscriptions, the coins also included figures of the Christian religion that showed that Aksum people were devotees of this religion. The Axumite currency reflected Axum’s culture in that it incorporated Christian symbols and Geez writing

The written language of Aksum was the Ge'ez. It has Arabic origins that were modified by the Greeks. Originally, Ge'ez was the liturgical language of the Ethiopian church. It also was spoken in some Arabic tribes of the time. In this modern era, the Ge'ez language is still used in some religious ceremonies in Ethiopia.

Explanation:

After the election of 1860, in which Abraham Lincoln was elected president, South Carolina seceded from the
Union. Ten other states followed its lead, forming the Confederate States of America. President Lincoln decided
that he could not allow the country to break apart and that only military force could save the Union. The Civil War
began. What other options did Lincoln have, if any, in his quest to save the nation?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

Indeed, President Lincoln decided that he could not allow the country to break apart and that only military force could save the Union. Under those conditions, President Lincoln did not have many options to choose from in his quest to save the nation.

With the victory of Abraham Lincoln in the presidential election, the leaders of the southern states knew that things were not going to favor them. Northern abolitionists continued to demand the end of slavery in the southern states. However, slavery was on the basis of the southern economy. Landlords needed slaves to work for long hours in the farm fields to produce the cash crops needed for trade and to export to Europe.

Some southern states ended up making the decision to secede from the Union and these states were Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Texas, and South Carolina, Louisiana, North Carolina, Virginia, Arkansas, and Tennessee.

That is why, when the war ended, President Lincoln supported the Ten Percent Plan to readmit former Confederate states to the Union. Lincoln wanted to heal the wounds of the Civil War as quickly as possible.

After the victory of the Union Army over the Confederated States that ended the Civil War, President Lincoln wanted a quick union of the country. He created the Ten Percent Plan where only 10% of the people of each Souther State had to make a swore of allegiance to the Union for the Souther state to be readmitted. Lincoln really wanted a quick Reconstruction process.

During first civilizations rivers encouraged for the development.

Why did early civilizations arise on the banks of rivers?

Rivers existed in beautiful locations for the first civilizations because they nourished a continuous collection of drinking water and fun, created land fertile for raising crops, and permitted comfortable transportation. Earlier river civilizations existed all hydraulic empires that held power and control through exclusive power over access to water. This approach of government emerged through the requirement for surge control and irrigation, which needs major coordination and a technological bureaucracy.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A. Rivers.
