<span>It was letter d.  Thoreau was a pacifist but he also advocated the use of force when necessary.  Thoreau believed that there comes a time that you have to use aggressive means to achieve change against an unjust system although Lewis was against violence particularly that of Malcolm X exultations, this call of violence is similar to Thoreau.</span>

Im still not convinced its D, I would say it is C, Thoreau was a guy who did not like following some orders of the law and he belived in "CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE" a famous story he wrote about breaking the law when necessary. Answer C talks about INDEPENDENCE, RESPONSIBILITY, SELF-DISCIPLINE, and SELF-RELIANCE.

How did the british protect their supremancy with the help of military system?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The British seemed unbeatable. During the previous 100 years, the British had enjoyed triumph after triumph over nations as powerful as France and Spain. At first glance, the odds were clearly against the Americans. A closer look provides insight into how the underdogs emerged victorious. Britain's military was the best in the world. Their soldiers were well equipped, well disciplined, well paid, and well fed. The British navy dominated the seas. Funds were much more easily raised by the Empire than by the Continental Congress. Some of those funds were used to hire Hessian mercenaries to fight the Americans. The Americans had tremendous difficulty raising enough funds to purchase basic supplies for their troops, including shoes and blankets. The British had a winning tradition. Around one in five Americans openly favored the Crown, with about half of the population hoping to avoid the conflict altogether. Most Indian tribes sided with Britain, who promised protection of tribal lands.

How did mercantilism increase the likeihood of conflict between european powers?
Tcecarenko [31]
Although mercantilism in general did good things for trade within European powers, it also led to conflict since it spawned so much competition. For instance many nations did not take well to having tariffs placed on their goods and would therefore go to war.

What are some of the challenges facing the Southern states in terms of rebuilding their infrastructure?​
Radda [10]

Answer:

The great army of the West, commanded by General William T. Sherman, enters Savannah, Georgia, at Christmas of 1864. They have just come on their march to the sea, starting out in Atlanta. They have marched through the heart of Georgia... They have destroyed everything in their path that could be of use to the Confederacy: railroad tracks, they have burned plantations. They have liberated tens of thousands of slaves, enforcing the Emancipation Proclamation of President Lincoln... Sherman says when he starts out on the march, "I can make Georgia howl." He's bringing the war to the civilian population. He doesn't kill civilians. He doesn't attack them, but he destroys property; he destroys their livelihoods and he liberates their slaves.

He's trying to demonstrate that the South has no power that can prevent the North from prevailing in this war. If he can march right through the heart of one of the most important Southern states without any opposition even, wreaking devastation and liberating the slaves... And for generations afterward, the name Sherman will be a byword for cruelty in the minds of white Southerners and white Georgians who experience this.
