Explanation:

During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the Europeans put in a lot of effort and finances into finding new, independent trade routes toward Asia. The main reason for this was the Ottoman Empire, as it managed to establish itself in between Asia and Europe, right on the most important trade route, and it was using this to put in high taxes to make lot of wealth.

The Europeans understandably didn't fancied this circumstances, so they were trying to find ways around the Ottoman Empire in order to trade with Asia. This resulted in numerous expeditions in the seas and oceans around the world. While some expeditions managed to find trade routes to Asia, like the one around Africa, and through the Indian Ocean, while some had totally unexpected outcomes, as while looking for a way to Asia, two new continents were discovered, North and South America.

overtime, the civil rights movement changed in a way that not only it benefited african-americans, but benefited other ethnicity's such as latinos, asians, or women too! that's why the results of the movement be called mixed.

the civil rights movement brought about tremendous changes. no longer were blacks denied the right to vote, to eat, shop, and swim where they , and more importantly, to attend integrated schools. despite its many accomplishments, however, the civil rights movement had its shortcomings. for example, many people, both young and old, lost their lives, homes, jobs, and families. still other individuals were so damaged by psychological trauma that they ceased being productive members of the community. the movement left intact the economic inequities that had contributed to the maintenance of segregation. and finally, racism remained alive and well long after the movement's end. like most movements of its kind, the civil rights movement left behind a mixed legacy of triumph and tragedy.

the answer is false.
