Answer:

The correct amswer is option A. Deborah Sampson

Explanation:

Deborah Sampson was born in 1760 in Massachusetts. Her father abandoned the family and, as her mother could not take care of her children, she was sent to a maternal relative's house (which was very common in 18th century New England). Deborah disguised herself as a man and enlisted to fight in the American Revolutionary War under the name of Robert Shirtliff. She had already enlisted to fight in battle before joining the Continental Army and the Baptist Church to which she belonged took off her fellowship. This time, after the end of the Revolutionary War, she was discharged at West Point, New York.

<u>Discharge:</u> to officially tell a person to leave a place.

Do people living in the U.S. today believe in nationalism or sectionalism? Explain..
geniusboy [140]

Answer: Nationalism

Explanation:

" Nationalism in the United States is a tricky issue which has come to the forefront in recent years. Nationalism, which is a political system that puts one’s nation above all others, should be separated from patriotism, particularly as nationalism is often driven more by racial and ethnic superiority than a love of country. While patriotism can be seen in 63 percent of Americans reporting being either extremely or very proud to be an American, it should also be noted that 55 percent of people felt that white nationalism posed a very or somewhat serious threat to the U.S. Nationalism can be seen in many aspects of America today, from politics to the economy to right-wing extremism."

What made it difficult for early US leaders to maintain neutrality during conflicts between France and Great Britain
satela [25.4K]

In 1793,France,under the leadership of Napoleon,declared war on Spain,Britain and Holland.The United States lacked the resources and desire to enter the Napoleonic Wars,and even Jefferson agreed with Hamilton and Washington that USA should remain neutral.

US neutrality was compromised when Citizen Zenet,the French ambassador to the United States,began to recruit Americans to fight for the French.Additionally,Genet tried to use American ports to launch French naval attacks on the British and use American soil to train French troops.

Hamilton argued that the US did not need to honour the 1778 treaty because it had been an agreement with the king of France ,not with the new French Republic established during the French Revolution.hamilton also encouraged Washington to deny Genet's request that the United States repay its debts to France in advance.
