I’m studying for my History class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

1. Briefly compare the differences between the non-sedentary, semisedentary, and fully sedentary groups that inhabited the Americas before the Encounter? How would you describe their relationship to the land? How did it vary from group to group?

2. Discuss the causes of the independence movements in order to pinpoint the reason for the collapse of Spanish and Portuguese rule in most of Latin America.

3. Briefly compare liberal ideas versus conservative ideas. Which ideas do you think predominated in postcolonial Latin America?

4. How did the relationship between the United States and Latin America change during the nineteenth century

5. Who were the neoliberals, and what did they want?
