After Mexico's defeat on the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo came into action. The U.S. was recquired to pay 15 million dollars as compensation for damages, while taking ownership of the territories of California, half of New Mexico, most of Arizona, Nevada, Utah and parts of Wyoming and Colorado.
Mexicans that were settled in these territories, had the choice to relocate within the new limits of their country, or stay and receive American citizenship with full civil rights. This had quite big implications in U.S. culture as it became more racially diverse. In the following censuses between 1850 and 1920 most annexed mexicans were counted as "white", but in reality, segregation only grew with time and continues to do so until this day, with mexican-native americans being considered foreigners almost universally. At the same time, mexican migration to these areas also continued to rise over the years, making the contrast bigger.
Politically, we can say Mexico wasn't in a bad position in terms of their negotiation power. The U.S. had shown itself hesitant to annex Mexico's territories and having deep domestic divisions in regards to the aims and justification for the expansion. However, the military power of the U.S. overshadowed all of that and their victory was definite. The treaty established a pattern of political inequality between the two countries, and this lopsided relationship has stalked Mexican-U.S. relations ever since.

The political geographic and cultural impact of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo
The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo had significant political, geographic, and cultural impacts. Politically, it ended the Mexican-American War and established the boundary between Mexico and the United States. Geographically, it resulted in the acquisition of vast amounts of territory for the United States, including present-day California, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and parts of Colorado and Wyoming. Culturally, it resulted in the expansion of Anglo-American culture, the displacement of Mexican residents, and the exacerbation of existing racial tensions.

3. What contradictions did Southey note in Owen's system of social organization? Do you agree with Southey? Why or Why not?
1. What did Southey think of the New Lanark children's precision drilling?
He thought of what T. Vardon had told him about the cows in Holland. When the cows are taken to shelter, Dutch prevent them from dirtying their tails by tying them and the consequence is that when a cow wags its tail, the others must do it too. He thought that the puppet-like movement of the children were like the water wheel of the Cotton-Mills.
2. According to Southey, why was New Lanark like a plantation?
He said that New Lanark was like a plantation because the persons under Robert Owen’s control were white and free to go whenever they wanted to, but if they decided to stay, they were like any negro-slaves.
3. What contradictions did Southey note in Owen's system of social organization? Do you agree with Southey? Why or Why not?
The contradictions Southey noted in Owen’s system of social organization was that Owen considered his workers as human machines and that Owen expected all mankind would be governed by the same principles of The New Lanark. Southey mentions that Owen hid from others and from himself believing that his system looked for perfect freedom but with the high price of being kept by absolute power.
I agree with Southey because Owen, by his principles, intended to destroy all character and individuality, which is the power of human society.

b. It banned any new development of nuclear weapons.
c. It controlled what nations got to have nuclear weapons.
d. It managed to reduce the size of their nuclear arsenals.
Answer:
The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II aimed to:
b. Banned any new development of nuclear weapons
d. Managed to reduce the size of their nuclear arsenals
Explanation:
The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II or SALT II was the continuation of a previous attempt to regulate the nuclear arms threat between the US and the USSR. This happened during a period known as the Cold War where the world was divided into 2 blocks competing for power: the Capitalist block led by the US, and the Communist block led by the USSR.
Both countries had developed large arsenals of nuclear weapons and a war between them would've had catastrophic consequences. Talks between President Jimmy Carter and Premier Brezhnev began in November 1974. They agreed to: limit the size of their nuclear arsenals, limit the development of new weapons, and limit the deployment of new offensive weapons.
The treaty was signed on June 18, 1979.
The two things that are accomplished in Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II are Option B and D.
The Interim Agreement was intended to be replaced by the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks II (SALT II), however, SALT II did not become effective.
As part of SALT II, missiles were subject to numerical restrictions, bans on specific missiles, definitions of the systems included by the agreement, and verification clauses.
Hence options B and d are correct.
