Which three statements best describe effects of apartheld in South Africa
Komok [63]

Answer:

- Poverty levels became high among black citizens;

The poverty levels among the black citizens were high prior to the apartheid, so it is an over-exaggeration that the poverty levels became higher. The bigger problem was that the black citizens were not given the same opportunities as the white citizens, so that was what kept them poor and without prospect.

- A wide education gap opened between white and black citizens;

Very big problem was the education system, as most of the white citizens had education, while the majority of the black citizens did not. That created a very big problem as most of the black citizens were illiterate, thus stopping them from being able to progress even when the apartheid ended.

- White citizens controlled most businesses and industries;

Almost all businesses and industries in the country were controlled by the white citizens, That meant that they controlled the economy as well, and with the segregation that was taking place, it put the black citizens in a very situation.

List and describe three effects that the American Revolution had upon economic relationships in the United States.
baherus [9]

Answer: The Founding of the Colonies: One thing to keep in mind is that many of the American colonies were first founded by people trying to escape religious persecution in England. As the British government became more involved in the affairs of colonies, people began to worry that they would once again lose their freedoms.

French and Indian War: The French and Indian War took place between the American colonies and New France. Both sides allied with various Native American tribes. This war lasted from 1754 to 1763. British troops not only helped the colonists to fight the war, but were stationed in the colonies for protection after the war. These troops weren't free and Britain needed money to pay for the troops. The British Parliament decided to tax the American colonies to help pay for the troops.

Taxes, Laws, and More Taxes: Prior to 1764, the British government had pretty much left the colonists alone to govern themselves. In 1764, they began to impose new laws and taxes. They implemented a number of laws including the Sugar Act, Currency Act, Quartering Act, and the Stamp Act. The colonists were not happy with the new taxes. They said they should not have to pay British taxes because they had no representatives in the British Parliament. Their motto became "No Taxation Without Representation."

Growing Unity Among the Colonies: The increased laws punishing the colonies did little to control the colonies as the British had hoped, but actually had the opposite effect. The laws caused the colonies to become more united against the British. Many colonies sent supplies to help Boston during the blockade. Also, more and more colonists throughout the Americas joined up with the Sons of Liberty.
