Ivenika [448]
The southern colonies (and the colonies in the Caribbeans) required slave labor and indentured servants to maintain plantations that grew valuable crops such as sugar canes and tobacco. Harvesting these crops were often labor intensive that many free workers were unwilling to do without high wages that plantation owners did not wish to pay.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter c) Surviving as the first permanent English colony in North America

Explanation:

In April 1606, a letter was issued by King James I of Inflair to Virginia Company with the intention of establishing colonies in Virginia. The Virginia Company was a privately held holding company looking for economic opportunity. They expected to profit from mineral wealth such as gold and iron ore, timber and wood products, and other natural resources. In addition, the letter named two subsidiaries of the company, the Virginia Company of London and the Virginia Company of Plymouth. The Virginia Company of London established the colony in Jamestown. Thus Jamestown became the first permanent English settlement in North America.

Identify how Robert E. Lee responded to the Battle of Vicksburg.
Stells [14]

Answer:

He would strike again into the North to force a Union retreat from Vicksburg to defend its home territory and

he sought to develop a military strategy that would persuade Copperhead Democrats to end the war.

Explanation:

Vicksburg was one of the Union’s most successful campaigns of the war. Although General Ulysses S. Grant’s first attempt to take the city failed in the winter of 1862-63, he renewed his efforts in the spring.

After defeating a Confederate force near Jackson, Grant turned back to Vicksburg. On May 16, he defeated a force under General John C. Pemberton (1814-81) at Champion Hill. Pemberton retreated back to Vicksburg, and Grant sealed the city by the end of May. In three weeks, Grant’s men marched 180 miles, won five battles and captured some 6,000 prisoners.
