Answer:

General Lee failed during his last stand at the Appomattox Court House because his troops were weak and surrounded.

Explanation:

The Battle of Appomattox Court House was the last battle of importance during the Civil War.

General Robert E. Lee was pressed because General Ulysses S. Grant had succeeded in destroying his supply of supplies in Appomattox. The last chance was to get to Lynchburg, where there were more supplies. However, between him and Lynchburg, there was the Northern cavalry. Lee did not want to capitulate yet. He felt that there was a chance to escape if Grant's infantry would not be mobilized. Lee's troops attacked, but after encountering infantry, Lee realized that his position was hopeless and agreed to negotiations.

After being defeated by General Ulysses S. Grant, General Robert E. Lee surrendered with his entire Southern Army army on April 9, 1865 at the Appomattox Courthouse.

What does James Madison claim will best benefit the “public good?” Do you agree or disagree? Why?
vlabodo [156]
<span>Madison claimed that private rights and public good would be best protected in a single large republic rather than a mélange of small republics. Do I agree? Yes, absolutely, I agree. There's no strength in division; it is pretty obvious that in unity is strength. Just think for a seconds what will become of the United States if there are 52 countries in North America? India would be more developed had Pakistan and Bangladesh not broken off from India. Yes, public good should be protected in a large republic rather than a string of small republics.</span>
