History

Answer:

It wanted a unanimous vote.

Explanation:

If Congress had decided to vote on independence on January 1, 1776, most likely no more than five colonies, maybe even less, would have voted for it. , But the sentiment for the desired independence in the colonies grew steadily after Common Sense and the king’s speech were published about two weeks later. Most of the colonies had voted for independence at first, but Adams and others understood that such a decision should be unanimous.

pishuonlain [190]
After the French and Indian War, the colonists were forced to obey the Quartering Acts which obligated them to provide food and shelter to the British soldiers who were enforcing the boundary between the Indians who assisted the French.

What is the overall effect of Jefferson's nuanced word choices in the declaration?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: Zooey Here!!

To contrast the colonists' decency and patience with the King's tyranny, to compare the colonists' aggressions with the King's total lack of restraint,  to suggest that all British citizens should reject the authority of their king,  to embarrass King George with descriptions of his terrible behavior.

Hope this helps!!

5.Who was General Castrillon talking about when he said "...Caprice, arbitrary will, and ignorance of that man"? (1)6.Why do you
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Part 5:  General Castrillon was talking about his excellency, Mexican General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, when he said, "Caprice, arbitrary will, and ignorance of that man".

Part 6: Delgado felt that the Texans were "drunken and infuriated volunteers" because he felt low of them and was making a derogatory remark against the Texans.

Part 7: Mexican soldiers were stuck in such a way that there was a lack of maneuvering space for them during the battle. They had the enemy on our right  while their front, though level, was exposed to the fire of the enemy. They also had, in their rear, a small grove extending to the bay shore.

Part 8: Delgado considered that Texans would burn them alive in retaliation for those who had been burned in the Alamo. However the fire was to make the prisoners comfortable.

Part 9: The Texan soldier would narrate the incidents differently as the Texas had a victory in the respective battle leading to the capture of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna. He would have narrated the story in a different way.
