Here is some information that will help:
The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution in US history. However, it gave very little power to the federal government and failed to establish an executive branch (aka president). Along with this, it gave the federal government very little power to raise an army. This weakness was put on display during Shay's Rebellion and was one of the many causes behind the US adopting the new constitution.
The French and Indian War is seen as one of the biggest causes of the American Revolution. This is because the British government put taxes on the American colonists in order to pay the war debt. King George III did this without the consent of the colonists, who immediately revolted against this idea.
It revolutionized the maritime industry by allowing faster travel that could now be controlled without being reliant on wind currents. Along with it being faster, you could now transport goods on larger ships through smaller bodies of water like rivers.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you do not specify a specific topic to develop the argument. An argument about what?
What is your compelling question? We cannot cite evidence of your research because you did not mention what is the topic of your research.
If we can help with something, we are going to set our own example based on our own topic.
How about the following.
Compelling question:
Was the Revolutionary War the last option for Patriots to get Independence from Great Britain?
Argument/Evidence:
1.- Yes, it was the only option after the number of aggressions and aggravations from the British crown. The English government never had the "openness" to negotiate another valid solution.
2.- Colonists were sick and tired of the heavy taxation imposed by the English government. We are talking about injust taxation such as the Navigation Acts, the Stamp Act, the Townshend Act, or the Tea Act.
3.- The worst part of it was that colonists had to pay those taxations but they did not have a voice in the British Parliament.
- economic disputes (restrictions of u.s trades)
- Royal Navy’s impressment of American seamen
(Keep in mind you didn't list any reasons so it would be kind of hard to answer)
