Document 1- Excerpt from Indians are Us, by Ward Churchill (1994)
In 1493 Columbus returned with an invasion force of seventeen ships, and was appointed by the Spanish Crown as “governor of the Caribbean islands and the mainland” of America, a position he held until 1500. Setting up shop on the large island he called Espanola (today Haiti and the Dominican Republic), he quickly developed policies of slavery (encomienda) and organized slaughter against the native Taino population. Columbus’s programs reduced Taino numbers from as many as eight million at the beginning of his rule to about three million in 1496. Perhaps 100,000 were left by the time of his departure. His policies remained and by 1514 the Spanish census (population count) of the island showed barely 22,000 Indians remaining alive. In 1542, only two hundred were recorded. Thereafter, they were considered extinct, as were Indians throughout the Caribbean Basin, a total population which totaled more than fifteen million at the point of first contact with Columbus was now gone.

Document 2- Excerpt from Columbus, Hero or Villain by Michael Pucci (1997)

Contrary to what some say, Columbus was a courageous man. He challenged popular opinion when nobody else believed him. He did what no other explorer dared to do. He was determined to find the route to Asia when everybody else was afraid to. American Indian activists criticize Columbus for bringing disease to America and act as if that was his entire goal when setting sail from Europe. It is ridiculous to claim that he knowingly brought over these sicknesses and purposely infected people with it. Columbus is also slammed for owning slaves. What leader in 1492 did not own slaves? The fact that Columbus did own them is irrelevant to any issue. Columbus did not cause environmental destruction either. He paved the path for the settlement of America. Columbus was not on a mission of destruction. Rather, he was on a quest for paradise.

Answers

Explanation:

Human history, also known as world history, is the description of humanity's past. It is informed by archaeology, anthropology, genetics, linguistics, and other disciplines; and, for periods since the invention of writing, by recorded history and by secondary sources and studies.

Humanity's written history was preceded by its prehistory, beginning with the Palaeolithic Era ("Old Stone Age"), followed by the Neolithic Era ("New Stone Age"). The Neolithic saw the Agricultural Revolution begin, between 10,000 and 5000 BCE, in the Near East's Fertile Crescent. During this period, humans began the systematic husbandry of plants and animals. As agriculture advanced, most humans transitioned from a nomadic to a settled lifestyle as farmers in permanent settlements. The relative security and increased productivity provided by farming allowed communities to expand into increasingly larger units, fostered by advances in transportation.

C. Providing insurance
D. Interpreting the laws.

Answers

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The government doesn't give insurance to anything.

Only insurance company's do that.

Providing insurance is NOT a proper function of government. Thus, option C is correct.

What is government?

The group of people who make up a municipal unit's or an institution's regulatory agency. An organized population is governed by a system or group of individuals, typically a state. The government often consists of the legislative, executive, and judicial branches in the situation of its broad integrative definition.

A government is usually made to provide care to the citizen but that does not meet that they would provide insurance as different people may have different needs for insurance and simple insurance would not be enough for every person.

The government's job is to enforce the law or interpret or write the law. Therefore, option C is the correct option.
