What effect did the american revoultion have on france in the years shortly after the war
tangare [24]

For France, the <em>American Revolution </em>implied a significant expenditure and the worsening of the crisis of the former regime. Six years after the <em>American Revolution</em> concluded, the <em>French Revolution</em> erupted in 1789, France was immerse in a profound economical and social crisis. Since France helped America economically and militarily during the American Revolution, it became insolvent; in other words, The American Revolution conducted France into a massive fiscal crisis, factor that was relevant in the French Revolution.

Also, the American Revolution's ideas of liberty and self- government inspired the French citizens and encouraged them to rebelled against the monarchy, due to the fact that by the time they were starving, insolvent and under a repressive ruler. French citizens saw Americana as an example to follow; the Americans imparted a working model of revolutionary success that the French adapted to their needs and context. French revolutionaries established constitutional measures in the <em>French Revolution</em> quite early, they also passed The Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen, and forced for a reformed monarchy.

Which feature of the Declaration of Independence is NOT emphasized in the South Carolina Declaration of Secession? a) the inalie
liraira [26]

Answer: a) the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness

Explanation:

The State of Southern Carolina began it's Secession Declaration by stating that... "<em>deems it due to herself, to the remaining United States of America, and to the nations of the world, that she should declare the immediate causes which have led to this act</em>". This invalidates option D because they believe themselves obliged to declare their reason for seeking independence.

The Declaration then speaks on the notion that Governments are established by humans to aid them to certain ends. End which if not met, constitute a just cause to remove the Government from power. This invalidates option B.

In the last part of the Declaration, South Carolina alluded to its reasons for seeking independence being that the Northern Non-slave states had violated statutes that required them to return slaves who escaped from a slave state. This invalidates Option C.

Option A was never alluded to in the Secession Declaration of South Carolina and little wonder why. As a state that was in support of slavery, to maintain that all people had<em> the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, </em>they would have been invalidating the institution of slavery and so they abstained from emphasising it.
