Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
Explanation:
We can affirm that on July 4, 1776 the Declaration of Independence of the USA was approved. Its main author was Thomas Jefferson. Philosophically, the statement emphasizes two issues: individual rights and the right to revolution. These ideas became widely accepted by Americans and also influenced in particular the French Revolution.
We understand how life was like in the old ages.
We understand how things were invented and used.
We understand the few rights that people had in the past.
We understand what things were most important to the people other than money (or when money was not invented, how did they buy goods)
We understand how people made a living when there were no jobs.
We understand how people used to live in the past, what kind of houses they lived in, and what were they made of due to the lack of resources.
We understand how and when things started to change, and why people started to invent things (for what purpose and how are those inventions used in today's world).
Today we look at things and say "This made my life easier...I wonder how I would be able to do stuff without this...I wonder how this works" Do you ever ask yourself, "who made that and why did he/she make that" people in the past were much more intelligent that people nowadays. Most things that we use today were made my them.
Is that enough xD?
Answer:
The reasons that it was initially difficult for England to strictly control the American Colonies in the 1600’s were:
1. There were long-distance travels involved, with sea-crossing making these travels extremely hazardous.
2. The colonies were established as chartered companies, with the founding members legally granted the powers to establish and control colonies.
3. Back home, England was facing massive economic problems. This means that some people leaving England for the colonies eased the economic hardships at home.
4. The purpose of the colonies was initially to open up economic markets for English goods and as a means of acquiring raw materials, especially gold. This implies that total control was not the main purpose for establishing the colonies.
Explanation:
The establishment of the Colonies in the Americas was a means of expanding economic resources. It was an adventure fraught with many difficulties. The colonists fought the native Indians in order to dislodge them from the land. Since these Indians were not accepted by the English, unlike the French and Spaniards who intermarried with the Indians, the Indians made life unbearable for the colonists. This is compounded with the problem of living with people who practised Animism as a religion and acted as true barbarians.
Because he helped out with a major civil rights movement to give African-Americans the same right as white people. Before him, black and whites couldn't share classrooms, water fountains, or sections of a bus. He has a huge role in US history.
