General McClellan’s Army of the Potomac tried to capture the Confederate capital, Richmond through the Peninsula Campaign.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

General George McClellan, the commander of the army of the Union had a not so clear plan of capturing the Confederate capital. In his attempt to do that, his troops successfully crossed the James River without much reluctance. Once they crossed it, they fought a small battle with a troop of the Confederate army and won.

The Union army troops were surprised by the minor resistance of the Confederate army. But soon after they won their first battle after crossing River James, they had to face a massive surprise attack from the troops led by General Johnston. At last, General McClellan lost this battle after heavy casualties on his side.

Drag each tile to the correct box. Arrange for the steps to show the effects of contractionary fiscal policy.

Illusion [34]

The correct order for the steps that show how contractionary fiscal policies work would be the following:

-Government increases tax rate

-Inflationary pressure decreases

-Consumers have less money to spend

-Producers manufacture fewer goods

Contractionary monetary policy is often applied when the economy is suffering from inflationary pressure. The central bank (U.S. Federal Reserve) will slow down the monetary supply. In turn, this raises the cost of borrowed money, which decreases Gross Domestic Product and inflation. Some negative side effects could be a higher unemployment rate.

Leviafan [203]

Many Native Americans (mostly Southeastern Indians/ ex. Creeks, Chickasaws, and Choctaws) supported the British in the American Revolution, while some supported the American and Spainsh (the Catawbas) because The British Empire promised to protect their land from the White American settlers if they won and fought with them, much like how Britian also promised slaves freedom if they fought for them or became spies. This was because if they won they would controll the land and the Ameircan colonies and what happens to it.
