What is main theory of how Native American Tribes came to North America and why?
Answer:
The main theory is that Native Americans reached North America from East Asia, more specifically Siberia, around 14,000 years ago.
The reason why this is the most accepted theory is because it has been proven by genetic studes that Native Americans and East Asians share a great degree of genetic similarity.
According to this theory, at that time, the Bering strait was frozen, and formed a land bridge between Siberia and Alaska. East Asians crossed this bridge, probably following wild game, and entered the American Continent.

Persian myths and legends
Answer:
The term 'mythology' comes from the Greek mythos (story-of-the-people) and logos (word or speech), meaning the spoken story of a people. Every civilization of the ancient world developed a belief system, which is characterized as 'mythology' in the present day but which, for them, was religious belief, and this was as true for ancient Persia as for any other. These systems only became designated as “mythological” after they had been replaced by others which, even so, continued to express the same values emphasizing the forces of good and order over those of evil and chaos.
Oral tradition was especially important and storytelling a central value in ancient Persian culture, and so the stories of the old continued to be told, and many of the deities, now reimagined, appear in the works of the oldest monotheistic religion, Zoroastrianism, which developed between c. 1500-1000 BCE. This faith developed from an earlier polytheistic system featuring a pantheon of gods, led by their king Ahura Mazda, who stood against the forces of the evil spirit Angra Mainyu. The prophet Zoroaster revised this earlier vision so that Ahura Mazda became the one true god while the most significant of the other deities became emanations and manifestations of his eternal goodness.
The stories which had once made up the religious understanding of the people now became fables – myths – which entertained while also encouraging the same cultural values they always had, only now in a monotheistic context. The god Mithra might still be invoked and his battle with the dragon Azhi Dahaka still be told, but it was understood that Mithra was now simply Ahura Mazda fighting the forces of evil.
Many of the other gods of the original Early Iranian Religion were forgotten, however, and are only known through brief reference in Zoroastrian scripture, religious literature, and the tales collected and written down in works such as the Shahnameh and One Thousand Nights and a Night. Since ancient Iran/Persia maintained an oral tradition until the Sassanian Period (224-651 CE), there is no ancient text along the lines of Hesiod’s Theogony or Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey (both c. 8th century BCE) describing and defining the old gods at the time they were being worshipped. Inscriptions found in the ruins of cities like Susa or at the great temple of Chogha Zanbil (also known as Dur Untush) provide only the most basic allusions to deities predating the development of Zoroastrianism.
The gods, creatures, and heroes who made up these early stories of ancient Persian mythology are therefore scattered amongst the various works of Zoroastrianism and later collections of myth and fable. A comprehensive list, or at least an attempt at one, should therefore prove useful to anyone interested in the subject of Persian mythology and religion specifically or the study of myth, folklore, and religion generally.
The following is a list of the various entities of pre-Zoroastrian Persia who appear in some of the most famous myths and legends. The list attempts to be complete but will omit some minor deities and even some heroes whose qualities are represented by others more famous. The list will also include religious concepts and places considered important in ancient Persian religion, such as the Chinvat Bridge which souls crossed from life to death or the House of Song, the Persian vision of paradise. The following are all drawn from the sources listed below in the bibliography.

What BEST explains President Lincoln's purpose in using emergency powers to suspend the right of habeas corpus?
A He wished to discourage any more border states from leaving the Union and joining the Confederacy.
B He wished to frighten potential spies in the North as well as limit their numbers.
OC He wished to prevent Confederate sympathizers from leaving the Union or sabotaging the war effort.
D He wished to silence any opposition to the Civil War in the North by imprisoning the opponents.
Answer:
D He wished to silence any opposition to the Civil War in the North by imprisoning the opponents.
Explanation:
Given that Habeas corpus is related to the right of individuals against unlawful detention or imprisonment. Then it can be concluded that the best explanation of President Lincoln's purpose in using emergency powers to suspend the right of habeas corpus is that "He wished to silence any opposition to the Civil War in the North by imprisoning the opponents."
This is evident in the fact that at the time of the American civil war, Washington, D.C., was around slave territories thereby having more Confederates sympathizers. These Confederates sympathizers were in the habit of frustrating the plans the Union military actions and discouraging the enlistment into the Union army.
Hence, to curb this, Abraham Lincoln, used emergency powers to suspend the right of habeas corpus, which means, the military authorities could detain any opposition to the Civil War in the North by imprisoning the opponents without due or legal process.

4.
death
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern
g
Answer:
1. the death of Hamlet's father - Claudius
2. the death of Hamlet's father and the ensuing hasty marriage - Gertrude
3. Ophelia's rejection of Hamlet's love - Polonius
4. disappointment at not being named king after his father's death - Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
Explanation:
Hamlet is a character who goes through many difficult situations, such as the murder of his father, the usurpation of the throne that belonged to his father, the marriage of his mother to the murderer, the rule and death of the woman he loves, the specter of father walking through the fantas and a highly shaken psychologist. All of these things make Hamlet have attitudes that are considered abnormal for the other characters who faithfully believe that Hamlet is crazy.
Hamlet is not crazy, but Claudius (the killer of Hamlet's father) believes that he went crazy because of his father's death. Gertrudes believes he is dead because of her marriage shortly after the death of Hamlet's father and her husband. Polonius believes that he is crazy for not having achieved the love of Ophelia and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern believe that he is crazy for not being his father's successor.
Answer:
1. the death of Hamlet's father - Claudius
2. the death of Hamlet's father and the ensuing hasty marriage - Gertrude
3. Ophelia's rejection of Hamlet's love - Polonius
4. disappointment at not being named king after his father's death - Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.

themselves
e, The Spanish wanted to create a buller zone to their tentory
d. The Spanish didn't want the French or English expanding their lands in the Americas
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Spain had claimed ownership of the territory in 1519, which comprised part of the present-day U.S. state of Texas, including the land north of the Medina and Nueces Rivers, but did not attempt to colonize the area until after locating evidence of the failed French colony of Fort Saint Louis in 1689. In 1690 Alonso de León escorted several Catholic missionaries to east Texas, where they established the first mission in Texas. When native tribes resisted the Spanish invasion of their homeland, the missionaries returned to Mexico, abandoning Texas for the next two decades.
