Explanation:

• Question 28:
• Vasco Núñez de Balboa was a Spanish explorer in the 16th century, long before the American (1775 - 1783) and French (1789 - 1799) Revolutions.
• Hernán Cortés was a Spanish conquistador in the 16th century, also before the relevant revolutions.
• Simón Bolívar was inspired by the ideals of the American and French Revolutions (liberty, equality) and led independence movements in Latin America (e.g., Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia).
• Question 29:
• Historians develop theses and use evidence (primary and secondary sources) to support their arguments. So the statement "they do not use evidence to support their arguments" is false.
• Question 30:
• Enlightenment philosophers like John Locke and Jean - Jacques Rousseau emphasized natural rights, social contract, etc. The separation of church and state was more prominently associated with philosophers like Voltaire. Locke's ideas were more about limited government and property rights, and Rousseau focused on the general will. So the statement is false.
