Which country established the first permanent european settlements in the lower mississippi valley? france portugal england spain

the answer is england.

the option which was not a function of missionaries in the northwest was the first one - they established posts for trading furs and other goods.

missionaries were sent around the world to spread religion and their knowledge and others - they were not merchants who sold furs and other goods.

the map that was shown mostly had eastern asia highlighted. the answer would mostly likely be "the spread of communism into eastern asia set the stage for the korean war."

hopefully this .
