The Cumberland Road is the first national road of the United States. Thomas Jefferson was the one who authorized the funding of it. The construction lasted from 1811 to 1834 and connected Cumberland to the Ohio River.

What is the traditlonal interpretation of why the french revolution started ?

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

<em>Class conflict started the revolution</em>

Explanation:

Large gaps between the rich and the poor in addition to extremely high taxes contributed to the French Revolution.

The excessive spending of the monarchy on wars and expansion of luxuries caused large deficits. To fix this problem, taxes were increased but the Church and high level lords did not pay taxes. Therefore the lowest classes were burdened with high taxes. The differences between the classes caused unrest and eventually revolution.
