Answer:

At the Battle of Bunker Hill, William Howe ordered his men to make a frontal assault in broad daylight as he thought his better trained and more experienced soldiers would easily defeat the patriot forces.

Explanation:

The Battle of Bunker Hill took place on June 17, 1775, as part of the Boston siege during the American War of Independence. General Israel Putnam was in charge of the revolutionary forces, while Major General William Howe commanded the British forces.

The result was a Pyrrhic victory for the British, who suffered more than a thousand casualties as a result of the frontal attacks carried by Howe. In their third assault, British forces overcame the patriot trenches in the Breed and Bunker hills. Later, British General Henry Clinton wrote in his diary that "A few more victories like this would surely end British rule in America."

To what extent did the ideas of the enlightenment influence the politics of eighteenth century Europe?
Natalija [7]
Hi!

The ideas of the enlightenment were exponential to the ideas we have today regarding politics. Great philosophers like John Locke set forth ideas like the invisible hand and the social contract.

Thoughts like these led to the fall of one of the most common forms of government at the time - a monarch. This led to nations changing to form a true system of government, where not one individual has too much power.

The ideas set forth by great thinkers like Locke helped put power in the hands of the people, not one individual at the top. The ideologies developed during this time are still in place today.

People conjured up the idea of splitting the government up into branches, as a way to prevent one person from having all the power. Our government still follows this set of ideas, by being split up into three different branches.

Hopefully, this helps! =)

Why did conservatives oppose the new deal? a. They thought Roosevelt was not doing enough to provide relief. b. They believed it
yuradex [85]

The correct answer is B) They believed it gave the government too much power in the economy.

Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal Program was meant to help America recover from the Great Depression. One way in which Roosevelt wanted to accomplish this was by creating several different federal work programs. This includes programs like the Works Progress Administration, Civilian Conservation Corp, etc.

However, conservatives felt that the economy works best when the government has little involvement. This is why they opposed these federal programs.
