This situation happened during the reconstruction period after the civil war. Since they cannot afford land they cultivated crops in other's land and share the crop.</span>

How did the american revolution contribute to the start of the French Revolution
jenyasd209 [6]
A huge part of it had to deal with the way that the French government dealt with debt. 
<span>Only their third estate, primarily poor merchants and peasants, paid any taxes. The French largely funded the American Revolution because of their long-standing animosity with Great Britain. However, the debt they incurred was only slowly paid off because the people they were taxing had very little money. The country fell into an economic crisis and resentment began to build against the first and second estates--the weathly, title-holder, landed gentry and clergy. Thus the revolution. </span>
<span>A good comparison is Great Britain post-America Revolution, who taxed their citizens more fairly and avoided revolution by not throwing most of their citizens into the desperate straits of poverty.</span>

What 3 religious things are important to the Puritians.
Sveta_85 [38]
<span>Good Morning!
 
For the Puritans some aspects of Christianity are fundamental. Among them we can point to the idea of Grace, that is, "undeserved favor". For them, both material goods and salvation are strictly derived from divine grace. A second fundamental point is the notion that the Bible (and not the Church) is God's sole source of authority in religious faith and practice. Finally, a third point that can be quoted is the idea of "covenant." The "covenant" is an alliance established by God with individuals.

sergejj [24]
In 1619 self-government was recognized in Virginia. This establishment was called as house of burgesses which became the first representative assembly in the american colonies.
