The correct answer is: it celebrates a day when the French masses rose up against oppression.

During the Bastille Day, which was on July 14th, angry crowds broke into the Bastille prison which later led to the French Revolution in 1789.

The Bastille Prison by that time represented the oppression that King Louis XIV and his wife Marie Antoinette exerted over the French.

What is the best indication of a more developed society?
atroni [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

The enhanced standard of living of the citizens is the best indication of a more developed society.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • A number of parameters can be applied for the measurement of the development of any given society.
  • But in order to determine whether the development has percolated down to the lowest strata of society, it is necessary to take note of the level of standard that the citizens have achieved to live their day-to-day life with.

Can u guys give me captions about Boston tea party?
Vanyuwa [196]
What do you mean by captions? Like quotes?


edit:

"The mistaken policy of the Stamp Act first disturbed this happy situation; but the flame thereby raised was soon extinguished by its repeal, and the old harmony restored, with all its concomitant advantage to our commerce. The subsequent act of another administration, which, not content with an established exclusion of foreign manufactures, began to make our own merchandise dearer to the consumers there, by heavy duties, revived it again; and combinations were entered into throughout the continent to stop trading with Britain till those duties should be repealed. All were accordingly repealed but one, the duty on tea. This was reserved (professedly so) as a standing claim and exercise of the right assumed by Parliament of laying such duties." ~ Benjamin Franklin

 "Patriotism is as much a virtue as justice, and is as necessary for the support of societies as natural affection is for the support of families." ~ Benjamin Rush - Patriot and Physician


"In about three hours from the time we went on board, we had thus broken and thrown overboard every tea chest to be found on the ship, while those in the other ships were disposing of the tea in the same way, at the same time. We were surrounded by the British armed ships, but no attempt was made to resist us...And it was observed at that time that the stillest night ensued that Boston had enjoyed for many months." ~ George Hewes Boston Tea Party - Eye Witness Account


"We were merry, in an undertone, at the idea of making so large a cup of tea for the fishes." ~ Joshua Wyeth
