The effects of the proclamations ordered by British governor of Virginia Lord Dunmore in November 1775 and British general Sir H

enry Clinton in 1779 on the enslaved population in Virginia are carefully analyzed in articles by Sylvia Frey and Cassandra Pybus. Pybus article is titled "Jefferson's Faulty Math," referring to Thomas Jefferson's claim that about 30,000 Virginia slaves left their masters during the American Revolution to take Dunmore and Clinton up on their offer of freedom to slaves who would be willing to fight with the British against the American revolutionaries. Pybus says this figure is way too high. Despite differences in their calculations, how can we tell from the overall gist of Frey's article "Between Slavery and Freedom" that Frey would accept Pybus figures for Virginia as more accurate than Jefferson's

Why was the battle of Midway such an important battle in the war for the Pacific? Explain your answer.
Hoochie [10]

Answer: It effectively ended Japanese Naval Supremacy.

Explanation:

Before the Battle of Midway, the Japanese were a very formidable force in the Pacific. Their navy boasted of several aircraft carriers which allowed them to sink ships with planes and they used this to devastating effect against the Americans at Pearl Harbor and the Australians.

The Japanese knew that if they could capture Midway, they would get the opportunity to negotiate favorably with the Americans and the Americans knew they could not lose Midway due to its strategic location.

The Americans broke the Japanese code for the battle and figured out their plans and used this to inflict a heavy loss on the Japanese by sinking 4 of their aircraft carriers. The Japanese Navy never recovered from this and for the rest of the war, they were on the defensive.
