1 answer:

4 0

Only 50 years after the defeat of the British at Yorktown, most Americans had already forgotten the extensive role black people had played on both sides during the War for Independence. At the 1876 Centennial Celebration of the Revolution in Philadelphia, not a single speaker acknowledged the contributions of African Americans in establishing the nation. Yet by 1783, thousands of black Americans had become involved in the war. Many were active participants, some won their freedom and others were victims, but throughout the struggle blacks refused to be mere bystanders and gave their loyalty to the side that seemed to offer the best prospect for freedom.

What conditions in russia challenged progress during the early 1800s

Anna [14]

Answer:

Russians declined the changes or progress that threatened their privileges and their society is widely controlled by landlords and landowning nobles. Their social structure is also very rigid.

The main chunk of Russians were laborers who are confined to the land and are masters who controlled their fate. The middle class people were too small as a group in order to have an impact or influence any effective changes in their society. The French revolution and the Enlightenment were bringing about liberal and nationalist changes but it didn’t affect the Russian dictatorship.

Which of the following events would most likely take place in an epic? A.The hero is briefly trapped by an enchantress B.The her

Scrat [10]

Well, an epic is a long poem, typically one derived from ancient oral tradition, narrating and adventures of a heroic figure (like Hercules, Beowulf) when you think of an epic just try to remember myths and legends. And with that, I do not think D or C are the answer just due to epics aren't making fun of their culture and the pov (point of view) doesn't change during an epic or story for that matter it gets confusing. Also with answer, A, not every epic has an enchantress so I believe B is the correct answer.
