The correct option is C

Mayan culture refers to that of a Mesoamerican civilization that stood out over 18 centuries in numerous socio-cultural aspects such as its hieroglyphic writing, one of the few fully developed writing systems of the pre-Columbian American continent, its art, architecture and its remarkable numbering systems, as well as astronomy, mathematics and understanding of ecology. It was developed in Guatemala and southeastern Mexico, also in Belize, the western part of Honduras and in El Salvador. In the sixteenth century the Spanish Empire conquered the Mesoamerican region, and after a long series of military campaigns the last Mayan city fell in 1697. The Inca or Inca Empire was the largest empire in pre-Columbian America. To the territory of the same one it was denominated Tawantinsuyu and to the period of its dominion is known, in addition, like incanato and / or incario. It flourished in the Andean region of the subcontinent between the 15th and 16th centuries, as a consequence of the apogee of the Inca civilization. It covered nearly two million square kilometers between the Pacific Ocean and the Amazon rainforest, from the outskirts of Pasto (Colombia) in the north to the Maule river (Chile) in the south. The Inca civilization emerged from the highlands of Peru sometime in the early thirteenth century. Its last bastion was conquered by the Spaniards in 1572. The Aztec Empire - also called, in a minority, Triple Alliance, Mexican Empire or Tenochca Empire - was an entity of territorial, political and economic control that existed in the central zone of Mesoamerica, during the Late Postclassic, before the Spanish Conquest.

Answer from: Quest

the correct answer is "pioneers carried all of their possessions on long and dangerous trails".

the first wave of pioneers travelled in 1842. they were merely 100 people. the next year that sum climbed to 1000 men, women, and children. these people travelled around 2,000 miles to oregon in the hopes of a better life. although the first part of the trip didn't present many obstacles, as time and miles went by they learnt that threat came from simple things, like becoming ill due to unclean water or bad food.

the weather didn't much, as wagons couldn't protect them from storms. as they travelled through the desert, the intense heat caused wood to shrink. their own lips abscessed and split because of the dry air. the only cure for this was to rub axle grease on their lips.

even crossing rivers was dangerous. sometimes wheels were damaged by unseen rocks on shallow water. mud didn't much either. pioneers were afraid of indian attacks, but there aren't many records of fights between pioneers and native americans. accidents happened because of negligence, exhaustion, guns, and bad weather.

history says that 1 of 10 pioneers who travelled to oregon didn't survive the journey. diseases spread fastly because they didn't have doctors and medical care was ofently improvised. one of the most deadly diseases they came upon was cholera, which became a worldwide pandemia.
