Napoleon enlisted Spain’s help in forming a strong navy, but he was defeated anyway.

At the time of the Battle of Trafalgar, in 1805, France and Spain were operating in an alliance. Having Spain's navy helped strengthen France's chances at sea, but it was not enough. Napoleon was an artillery man, and the French navy never achieved the strength that Napoleon's <em>Grand Armee </em>achieved on land. The British navy was the strongest naval force on the seas. Plus, the British had Admiral Horatio Nelson in command. His surprising tactics in the Battle of Trafalgar yielded victory for the British Royal Navy against the combined fleets of France and Spain. Nelson himself received a wound in the battle that cost him his life, but the battle stands in history as his greatest victory.

How is the US economy affected by the business practices of the Industrial Revolution
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The Industrial Revolution entirely changed the economy of the United States, transforming it to a largely agricultural and plantation based economy to one heavily reliant on factories, production, and urban development. Large businesses became central to the economy, whereas previously small businesses were far more important and prevalent. Inventions such as the steam engine, electricity, and railroads, made it far easier to produce vast amounts of manufactured goods and transport them long distances, which again aided in the rapid development of the economy. The building of railroads all across the country made it possible for farms in Middle America to sell goods to the more heavily populated East Coast, which again greatly aided in their development and growth. It also created a far larger financial sector, which would eventually become the largest in the world by the beginning of the 20th century. The vast amount of resources, workers, and capital available to large businesses made it possible for the American economy to grow exponentially during this period, making the U.S one of the most wealthy and productive nations int the world.
