Explanation:

The Viceroyalty of New France and generally known as New France, was the territorial entity of the French colonial Empire that included all the French colonies of North America, from the mouth of the St. Lawrence River to the Mississippi delta, passing through the territory of the Ohio Valley . It existed during good part of the centuries XVI, XVII and XVIII, constituting the main French colony at this time. Its existence can be framed in the period that extends from the exploration of the San Lorenzo River by Jacques Cartier in 1534 until the transfer of these territories to Great Britain and to Spain after the Treaty of Paris of 1763.

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.
