The British and Spanish both had footholds in the New World, yet they had different approaches. Scholars explore the dynamics, along with the reasons behind immigration to the United States and business practices of the Gilded Age in a series of structured prompts. A documents-based question investigates the women's rights movement after World War II, and other queries delve into the role of the United States during World War I and the Reconstruction Amendments.
