The major difference in ethnicity, religion, and settlement patterns of California:

Question

A. was founded by Spain, was Catholic, and settled very early in the 18th century
B. they were completely successful in Christianizing the indians
C. the area was dominated by Protestant settlers from northern Europe
D. was attractive to Angelos before 1820 and the MIssouri compromise
E. the Indian cultures dominated the region even after settlement

I believe the answer is C, is that correct?

Answer 1

I disagree.

Answer 2

Well California was founded in the 1500s so its not A. And I'm pretty sure there were Indians that stayed with their religion. I'm not too sure about D, but I know its not E either because once the American settlers moved into California, their population dominated the indian population.
