Answer: It was intended to protect American citizens who were in danger in the Cuban Revolution.

The USS Maine is known for having been lost in Habana Harbour on February 15, 1898. The ship was originally sent to the island in order to protect U. S. interests during the Cuban revolt against Spain. The ship blew up and sank, killing nearly three quarters of its crew. Although the cause of the sinking is unclear, popular opinion blamed Spain. This motivated the Spanish-American War later that year.

Famous leader (other than George Washington): How did a famous leader contribute to the American Revolutionary War?
son4ous [18]

Answer:John Adams was the spokesman of the American Revolution, playing a central role in convincing the Continental Congress to vote for independence. He also worked with Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin to write the Declaration of Independence.

Disgraced, Burgoyne returned to England, and was never given another command. These crucial colonist victories at the Battle of Saratoga persuaded the French to support the Americans with military aid, and is considered the major turning point in the American Revolution.

Women supported the American Revolution by making homespun cloth, working to produce goods and services to help the army, and even serving as spies.

The American colonists did not fight the Revolutionary War for independence from Britain by themselves. They had allies who helped them by providing aid in the form of supplies, weapons, military leaders, and soldiers. These allies played a major role in helping the colonists to gain their independence.

Cuales son los temas que se presentan en prometeo encadenado?
tia_tia [17]
Fuerza y Violencia, junto con Hefesto, llevan preso a Prometeo para que este sea encadenado en una roca, en la región de Escitia.

Fuerza apremia a Hefesto para que cumpla la orden de Zeus y encadene al titán. Hefesto tiene sus dudas, porque Prometeo es pariente suyo, pero sabe que no puede desobedecer a Zeus, así que cumple la orden. Una vez encadenado, Prometeo se lamenta por su destino:

Por haber proporcionado un privilegio de los mortales me veo unido al yugo de esta necesidad, desdichado.

Prometeo explica el origen de sus males Editar
Un coro de Oceánidas ha acudido a tratar de consolarle. Prometeo dice que preferiría haber sido arrojado al Tártaro para que nadie pudiera ver su desgracia. También señala que Zeus acudirá a suplicarle para que, por sus conocimientos proféticos, le revele el plan por el que se le pretenderá despojar de su calidad de rey de los dioses. Prometeo insiste en que no piensa revelarlo hasta que no sea liberado de sus cadenas.

Luego explica que estuvo de parte de Zeus en la lucha que mantuvo contra los titanes. Sin embargo, se opuso a que la raza de los mortales fuera aniquilada por Zeus, concediendo a éstos el fuego así como ciegas esperanzas.

Después llega Océano. En primer lugar aconseja a Prometeo que deje de injuriar a Zeus puesto que podría sufrir por ello peores castigos y además le ofrece su ayuda, diciéndole que intentará conseguir su liberación. Prometeo, sin embargo, insiste en que se mantenga alejado del asunto para evitar sufrir castigos como ya sufrieron Atlas o Tifón. Océano se va y Prometeo sigue explicando cómo benefició a los mortales: les enseñó a predecir el movimiento de las estrellas, los números, la escritura, el uso de los animales para trabajos agrícolas, las medicinas, el arte de la adivinación, el modo de interpretar los sueños, el modo de hacer señales con el fuego y los minerales bajo tierra.
