Answer:The Lenten fast is a Christian fast (for Catholics) which lasts for 40 days. Other Christian denominations also join in. The Lenten fast is not practised on Sunday and usually comes to an end on the Holy Saturday. The Holy Saturday is the day before Easter Sunday.

Ash is very important during the Day of Ashes which is usually a Wednesday. It is used to symbolise death and repentance.

It is a Christian holy day of prayer and fasting. The Shrove Tuesday comes before the Ash Wednesday and usually takes place on the first day of Lent, the six weeks of repentance or remorse before Easter. Ash Wednesday is traditionally observed by Western Christians and many other Christian the world.

Way before the lent, the Carnival usually holds. It is a festive period which holds in February or March. During the Carnival, people wear colorful masks and attires and hold a parade.

Cheers!

Write a well-organized essay that explains how the Americans won the Revolutionary War. Your essay should include at least four
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

1. When the American Revolution began, it looked like the colonies faced insurmountable odds. How did a ragtag band of volunteers without a proper source of funding for food and equipment manage to overcome the most powerful army and navy in the world?

How did each of the following contribute to the success of the American Revolution?

George Washington’s leadership abilities

Geography

Foreign assistance

Colonists’ spirit and attitude

George Washington helped us in many ways in the revolutionary war. Despite his losses he knew how to run the military. He was a really tough and brave man. Those two characteristics helped us in the military because you have to be brave and take risks t get rewards. Lastly toughness helped us out a lot. When our solders are sick or don't feel good they don't get to call in sick. They have to tough it out and if we were not tough enough then our soldiers would have gave up.

Geography helped Americans out a lot. One of the ways it helped us is by helping us know the terrain. Going to a unknown terrain and even unknown climate can be a easy way of death. Another way is by knowing a way to supply troops and how it was possible. We need geography for this because if we didn't use geography we wouldn't know where we were traveling. We also would not know how to supply our troops.

If we did not have foreign assistance then we would not have won the war. The french were pretty much the way we got our supplies. Also we would have been enormously out numbered in troops with out there assistance. Even though some assistance such as Spain's assistance was not much help to us at all.

Positive attitudes are needed in any war but it really helped us out in the revolutionary war. They believed that they were going to win and get their land. Then the french came along and grew our spirits. This also helped us because when the french came it it greatly lowered the British peoples spirit. What they thought was going to be easy instantly turned to a hard battle.

How does President Lincoln's quotation in the New York newspaper differ on the subject of slavery from how the article discusses
Reptile [31]

Answer: The Emancipation Proclamation and Thirteenth Amendment brought about by the Civil War were important milestones in the long process of ending legal slavery in the United States. This essay describes the development of those documents through various drafts by Lincoln and others and shows both the evolution of Abraham Lincoln’s thinking and his efforts to operate within the constitutional boundaries of the presidency.

Explanation: Events early in the war quickly forced Northern authorities to address the issue of emancipation. In May 1861, just a month into the war, three slaves (Frank Baker, Shepard Mallory, and James Townsend) owned by Confederate Colonel Charles K. Mallory escaped from Hampton, Virginia, where they had been put to work on behalf of the Confederacy, and sought protection within Union-held Fortress Monroe before their owner sent them further south. When Col. Mallory demanded their return under the Fugitive Slave Law, Union General Benjamin F. Butler instead appropriated the fugitives and their valuable labor as "contraband of war." The Lincoln administration approved Butler's action, and soon other fugitive slaves (often referred to as contrabands) sought freedom behind Union lines
