Answer:

The Battle of Gettysburg was the bloodiest battle of the Civil War, fought on July 1-3, 1863 near the city of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Northern Virginia's Army of General Robert E. Lee was defeated by the Potomac Army, suffering massive casualties; which - due to the limited recruitment possibilities of the Confederation - turned out to be irreparable. On the third, decisive day, Lee made a mistake by ordering an attack on a well-prepared center of Union troops. This maneuver took his victory away and cost thousands of victims.

Although the Confederate army, not attacked by American troops, withdrew in good order, was never to take the offensive again. With the fall of besieged Vicksburg on July 4, this battle - though not decisive in itself - marked a turning point from which the Confederacy was steadily falling and the Civil War was nearing its end, even though it was going to last almost two years.

About 7,000 men from the South left their lives on this last day of battle, so this great unionist victory left Lee, who saw his halo of invincibility seriously damaged, disconsolate and exhausted.

Write a paragraph on what the right to vote means to you

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The right to vote is when we can vote for our choice of a representative for the United States. This impacts me because we have the freedom to choose who represents us in worldly decisions. We should be honored to have this freedom since many other third world countries do not have this kind of freedom. In the future, at the age of 18, I will be able to vote for whoever I believe is better for our country. To have the right to vote impacts me and others for a better future.

Talja [164]

Answer:

Correct answer is departure of 32,000 troops from Britain .

Explanation:

Transport of Fort Ticonderoga cannons , as these cannons that were later used during the siege of Boston were transported between November of 1775 and January of 1776.

Departure of 32,000 troops from Britain is correct as this were the troops that came in the summer of 1776, led mostly by admiral Howe.

British victory at the Battle of Bunker Hill is not the correct as this was the first large battle of the war that happened in June of 1775.

Publication of Common sense is not the correct answer as Thomas Paine published it on January 10, 1776.

As we know Declaration was published on July, 4th of 1776.
