History

Answer:

On the other hand, the Americans had many intangible advantages.

The British fought a war far from home. Military orders, troops, and supplies sometimes took months to reach their destinations. The British had an extremely difficult objective. They had to persuade the Americans to give up their claims of independence. As long as the war continued, the colonists' claim continued to gain validity. The geographic vastness of the colonies proved a hindrance to the British effort. Despite occupying every major city, the British remained as at a disadvantage.

Americans had a grand cause: fighting for their rights, their independence and their liberty. This cause is much more just than waging a war to deny independence. American military and political leaders were inexperienced, but proved surprisingly competent.

The war was expensive and the British population debated its necessity. In Parliament, there were many American sympathizers. Finally, the alliance with the French gave Americans courage and a tangible threat that tipped the scales in America's favor.

Explanation:

The European nations were able to conquer large sections of Africa in those times because they had more advanced military technology.  Europeans easily adapted to African climate and topography. But Also, Europe, has more advances in technology in warfare, transportations. Also their governments are strong and stable due to ones careful rule.

But the real reason for European dominant is because they really and I mean really focus on their militaristic aspect as which they relied on for stability, conquest, and glory because thousands of years, Kings and some Queens are tought the ways of war and how war can give more than just territory and as a matter of fact Kings had trained themselves in Europe for milania, so not just did Kings evolve but the technology to fight among themselves were drastically improved as well.

This is all the information I have sadly.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

A major reason for the formation of groups like the National Congress of American Indians was to show the Whites that lived East of them that they were not the "savages" that they were as depicted by the newspapers, and that they can adapt and become like the whites. On top of that, it was to give them a structural government to rely on in case the Americans wanted to deport them west. Of course, this did not work, as most, if not all, Native American tribes were deported west.

iris [78.8K]

The correct answer is C. The Constitution allows the supension of the right to habeas corpus in the case of public safety being threated. Abraham Lincoln decided to suspend it because in Maryland, important strategic route to Washington, there was a great number of organized and violent people who opposed the Union. He couldn'd trust totally in the Maryland legislature either.
