what connection did the mier y teran report have to do with the law of april 6 1830?
A the report shows an excess number of Mexican immigrants which the new law forbid.
B the report showed that American settlers weren’t adopting the Mexican culture so the law halted American immigration.
C the report showed an excess of Mexican immigrants.
D the report showed an excess of slaves so the law abolished slavery
None of these answers is quite correct. The result of the report was that slavery was abolished in Texas as a way to discourage Anglo migration to the Mexican territory. Anglos outnumbered Mexicans in Texas (especially east Texas), and Mexico wanted to get control of the area, which was their territory at the time.
My answer is B
I disagree.
What does your text say?
I am afraid that when I went over it b was the right answer sorry
I agree with reed
To determine the connection between the Mier y Teran Report and the Law of April 6, 1830, we need to understand the historical context.
The Mier y Teran Report was a document compiled by Mexican General Manuel de Mier y Teran in 1828. He was sent to investigate the situation in the Mexican-held territory of Texas, which had a significant Anglo-American population. The purpose of the report was to assess the political, economic, and social conditions in the region.
The Law of April 6, 1830, on the other hand, was a Mexican law that aimed to address concerns that Mexican authorities had regarding the growing influence of Anglo-American settlers in Texas. This law implemented several measures to control the situation.
Now, let's examine the options:
A) The report shows an excess number of Mexican immigrants which the new law forbids: This option seems contradictory as it implies that Mexican immigrants were prohibited by the law, but it doesn't align with the intentions of the Mier y Teran Report or the Law of April 6, 1830.
B) The report showed that American settlers weren’t adopting the Mexican culture, so the law halted American immigration: This option suggests that the report identified a lack of cultural integration among American settlers and that the law subsequently stopped American immigration. While the Mier y Teran Report did highlight cultural differences, this option incorrectly suggests the law halted American immigration.
C) The report showed an excess of Mexican immigrants: This option suggests that the Mier y Teran Report revealed that there was an excessive influx of Mexican immigrants into Texas. This aligns with the findings of the report and provides a clear connection to the Law of April 6, 1830, which aimed to restrict immigration to Texas.
D) The report showed an excess of slaves, so the law abolished slavery: This option involves the concept of excess slaves, which is not directly related to the Mier y Teran Report or the Law of April 6, 1830. While slavery played a role in the tensions leading up to the Texas Revolution, it is not directly connected to this specific report and law.
Based on the explanations above, the correct answer is:
C) The report showed an excess of Mexican immigrants.
