Why did the colonists declare their independence?

History
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
4 0

The American colonies chose to declare independence from Great Britain for many reasons. They believed the British were treating the colonists unfairly.  The British passed many tax laws that impacted the colonists.  The colonists had no representatives in Parliament to vote on or discuss these laws.  In English government, the people had to have representatives who could vote on taxes that would affect them.

What factors conspired to propel the United States to emerge as a military and economic powerhouse prior to World War II?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on my research World War II took place between Sep 1, 1939 – Sep 2, 1945. During the 1930's (1929-1939) The <u>United States of America</u> was in the middle of the <u>great depression</u> after the stock markets crashed leading to worst economic crash in history. Therefore they were not a military or economic powerhouse at that point. Things started to change with WWII , when the government re-purposed factories to make war supplies thus giving millions of people jobs overnight and restoring the economy.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

How did religious division intensify the Ottoman-Safavid state rivalry?
ziro4ka [17]

<span>Religious beliefs have highly influenced the political and hierarchical structures in both Ottoman and Safavid Persia empires. Although both states were of Islamic religion, they belonged to different branches, Sunni and Shia. These branches differ over the choice of Muhammad's successor, which subsequently acquired broader political significance, as well as theological and juridical dimensions. Sunni Muslims believed that Muhammad didn’t clearly appoint a successor, which is why there isn’t hereditary succession law in Ottoman Empire. This contrasts with the Shia Muslims view, which holds that Muhammad appointed his son-in-law and cousin Ali ibn Abi Talib to succeed him. They believed that the empire should be led by direct successor of Muhammad’s line. Differences between these two branches affected the politics, as Shia Muslims weren’t religiously tolerant to other confessions and considered them for heretics, even the other branches of Islam. This resulted in the besieged of Bagdad, which was followed by the massacre of a large part of its Sunni Muslim inhabitants, as it was endeavored to transform Baghdad into a purely Shiite city. The besiege of Bagdad was the event that led to the Ottoman-Safavid war (1623–1639).</span>

4. Which of the following historical artifacts would be classified as Greek (Ancient Greece)?
ddd [48]

Answer:

C. 2 and 4

The Parthenon is from the ancient world and there were also plenty of philosophers in Ancient Greece. Galileo was an Italian renaissance man and the Mona Lisa is also Italian from the artist Leonardo DaVinci so therefore they aren't Greek.

How does this quotation express the idea of a “Lost Generation”?
maks197457 [2]

The correct answer is It expresses a hopelessness about life.

Gertrude Stein, who invented this term, used it to name a group of artists who were in France in the final years of the First World War, using the country as a refuge for their creative manifestations, philosophical discussions and literary creations. The Lost Generation became popular in a Hemingway novel called The Sun Also Rises and in his memoir, A Moveable Feast.

Although formed by several artists, the group was best known for the literary works that it produced in the period. On the list of famous authors of the Lost Generation are T. S. Eliot, John Dos Passos, Waldo Peirce, Sherwood Anderson, Ezra Pound, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway. In addition to them, another personality mentioned as part of this generation is James Joyce, who has his novel Ulysses as one of the most important at this time. Within this generation, there is a lot of influence of jazz on literary compositions, as this musical style was emerging in the United States and influencing other countries.
