The Massachusetts Provincial Congress approved the creation of a colonial army consisting of 26 regiments on April 23, 1775, after which smaller armies were formed, from New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. On June 14, 1775, the Second Continental Congress continued with the creation of a continental army, adopting the armies that had already been created outside Boston (with 22,000 soldiers) and New York (5,000). The first ten companies of Continental Troops were created after a year of getting ready; soldiers from Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia were used as light infantry, which in 1776 became the First Regiment of the Continental Army.

Answer:

women earning less than men for similar work.

Explanation:

Inequality between men and women in the labor market, the theme seems old and outdated, but it is real and closer than we imagine. Women still earn less than men even when they are in the same area and occupy the same positions as male professionals.

With a simple labor market analysis it is possible to see that women have the skills to take on any job. Professionals are subject to errors and correctness regardless of their gender, for these reasons, different wages between men and women who occupy the same function show a serious case of inequality in the work environment.

Discuss the relationship between politics and religion by examining the wars of religion. (european history)

uranmaximum [27]

Most of early history, these was no seperation of church and state, so they were one and the same.
This applies to both the English civil war ( if you can call any war civil) and the Dutch revolt. Both were to end Catholic domination of the Protasant subjects.
All wars are both religious and political. But end up anti-religious as they violate the very tenets of any religion they expound so it is only being about power.
Protasants revolted against the Catholics for freedom but then in-fighting over which Protasant religion is good.
The politics of any war are power and greed. Someone wants what someone else has and demands the right to take it and deny others taking it from them.
Many claim they are trying to protect the ' true' religion or claim for religious freedom and then show they are no better then the heritics they decry and deny others the same freedoms they want,
When all is said and done - all is just for power.
War has never settled any differences. It just pospones the reversal of power as will always happen. The French Revolution almost did by beheading the royals but as many escaped and Napolian brought new ones in. Nothing much changed.
The American revolution - which was the 1st non-religious war started the change for wars to not just be about religion.
