Answer:

Britain strengthened its control over the American colonies after the French and Indian War to recover from the economic cost of fighting a war with France.

Explanation:

The French and Indian War took place from 1756 to 1763, facing Great Britain and its American colonies against France and its native allies, in what is now New England and Canada. The result of this war, which was framed in a global conflict called Seven Years' War, was a British victory, for which France abandoned its colonial pretensions in North America.

With this result, the French threat to the Thirteen Colonies had its end. Interpreting this situation, the British government, which had to face the costs of that war, decided that it was the settlers who had to pay the expenses incurred in the contest. Therefore, it began to exercise a stronger dominion over these territories, and to impose different taxes and contributions destined to tax the colonies through British Parliament, without colonial representation.

Did the supreme court decisions under john marshall's leadership extend federal power too much? is it appropriate that someone w

mash [69]

The supreme court decision under John Marshall leadership have extended federal powers, but not too much in the sense of destroying the federalist idea that brought the United States together. Marshall was guided by a strong commitment to judicial power and by a belief in the supremacy of national over state legislatures. His judicial vision was very much in keeping with the Federalist political program in line with the constitution.

It can be argued that someone not elected should not have power to shape government and law through the Expansion of the Judiciary in 1801, but the Marshall Court, and this decision in particular, established the principle of "judicial review" whereby Congressional laws and executive actions may be judged by the Supreme Court to be within the bounds of the Constitution.

It is definitely not appropriate that a political party ideology is implemented through the judiciary, however, In keeping with John Marshall's Federalist views, they generally favored strong government action and especially supported the supremacy of the federal government over state authorities as long as it was constitutional.

The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object

svet-max [94.6K]

I would say C because the king did repeatedly abuse our rights. Like the intolerable acts for instance shut down the port of massachusetts and hurt trade. Also the quartering act the sugar act the stamp act and a few more that evntually led us to civil war with him. We peacefully sent the king a olive tree branch petition which was supposed to be a sign of peace. But he rejected it and called us in full rebellion. So we fought for ourselves and won the civil war and made friends with britain as our main trade partner.

In black beauty how old was little joe when he became john manley's assistant

Tasya [4]

The correct answer is: L<span>ittle Joe was 15 years old when he became John Manley's assistant. He is called "Little Joe" not because he is young but because of his size.
</span>
At first, Joe Green is the steady kid for Squire Gordon and Lady Anne at Birtwick Park; he replaces James, who in Chapter 16, after the Squire and his better half have chosen to visit companions and remain at an inn, salvages Beauty and Ginger from eating after an indiscreet man has entered the animal dwellingplace, smoking a pipe. In Chapter 17 the fifteen-year-old Joe starts work under the tutelage of James.
