Answer:

To cut off New England from the rest of the colonies

Explanation:

The theory was that with both New York City and Albany in British hands, they would then control the Hudson River and separate the particularly rebellious New Englanders from the rest of the colonies. It is simply the old divide and conquer theory.

Explain the historical circumstances surrounding Robespierre’s speech
Gelneren [198K]

Maximilien Robespierre (1758-1794) was one of the leaders and orators of the French Revolution of 1789, best known for his involvement in the Reign of Terror that followed.

As a young man, he studied law and had a reputation for honesty and compassion. He sought to abolish the death penalty and refused to pronounce a required death sentence after becoming a judge.

But as the revolution approached, Robespierre became head of the powerful Jacobin Club, a radical group advocating exile or death for France's nobility. In 1792, after Paris mobs stormed the palace of the Tuileries and dethroned King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette, Robespierre helped organize the new revolutionary governing body, the Commune of Paris.
