What was the role of family in colonial life?

History

Nostrana [21]3 years ago

Back in the colonial times, the role of the family was to contribute in different ways to make a living together. Usually, gender roles played a part in the ways family members contributed. The women of the household usually maintained the house (the mom would raise the children), and the men hunted, built, and went to the market to trade. Hope this helps! :)

What was the significance of Spain’s conquest of the Incas in the early sixteenth century
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The Spanish conquering Peru (the Incas) was one of the most remarkable and brutal from the time due to moving their capital and removing the emperor from that time.

Explanation:

Francisco Pizarro carried the conquest which led to the collapse of the Inca Empire. Pizarro's Spanish team were amazed by the riches of the Incas by that time.

The empire was previously weakened due to a civil war between the Incas, which led the Spanish to an easier conquest.

How did colonial powers govern their colonies?
Dmitrij [34]
I am going to assume here you are referring to the 'Scramble of Africa' that happened in the second half of the 19th century, as the European power did not really control the African regions before then. 

The methods contexts did differ per colonising power and colonised region, but it boils down to the following factors:

- superior firepower, equipment and recourses; having better guns, armour, communication technology, and supply routes, made the Europeans a formidable enemy that the various tribes simply could not counter.

- co-opting the local elites; a tried and tested method for centuries, this has always been the way smart conquerers could maintain control over a region with minimal fuss and expenditur.

<span>- divide and conquer; conflict between the many tribes of Africa has been a constant for centuries in the continent. The Europeans could easily manipulate the various tribes against each other to prevent a unified resistance from rising up. </span>

<span>- a willingness to use extreme forms of terror; the Europeans might have been all high and mighty back home about their Enlightment and democracy, but in Africa they were more than willing to use forms of terror that would make most contemporary dictators feel a little uneasy. Case in point, the widespread killing and mutilation when quotas were not met in king Leopold II's Congo.</span>

What events led to the revoloutionary war?
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Several factors summed up to produce the outbreak of the Revolutionay War. Many grievances and resentments accumulated for decades before the explosion.

Heavy and burdensome taxation after the end of the French Indian War was a motive of deep discontent in the colonies; the British crown has highly indebted after the war and levied taxes on the colonies. Together with the high taxes they were asked to pay, colonists bitterly complained about lacking political representation in Parliament; "taxation without representation" was a popular complaint in those times.

The use of local land properties and buildings of colonists as barracks if necessary by the British troops, often without consent given the laws, incensed colonists. And there was harsh treatment by soldiers and officers. These wer abuses of power.

Lastly, trade restrictions imposed by the crown policies also made colonists resentful, they wanted more opportunities of global trade.
