How did 100 men defeat over 400 mexicans at the battle of Concepción

History

5 0

The Texan army had a good defensive position, in the trees, and the Mexican army had no way to maneuver to them. The Mexican infantry soon found themselves with less weaponry too, as their Brown Bess muskets had a maximum range of only 70 yards, compared to the 200-yard effective range of the Texan long rifles. The Texans were short of ammunition, and although Mexican ammunition was plentiful it was poor quality. Sometimes, Mexican musket balls bounced off Texan soldiers, causing little damage other than a bruise. The Battle of Concepción lasted only about 30 minutes; at that point the Mexican soldiers retreated towards Bexar.

Determine what increased the debates regarding the abolition of slavery.
butalik [34]

Answer:

it is attach in the picture. <3

Explanation:

In the 1850s debates over slavery increased due to the different viewpoints of the North and South. The Compromise of 1850 admitted California as a free state and divided the remainder of the Mexican Cession into Utah and New Mexico allowing settlers to decide the slavery issue by majority vote. The economics of slavery were probably detrimental to the rise of U.S. manufacturing and almost certainly toxic to the economy of the South. ... From there, production increases came from the reallocation of slaves to cotton plantations; production surpassed 315 million pounds in 1826 and reached 2.24 billion by 1860
