''These are the times that try men's souls'' is a very powerful phrase. If I was living in colonial America and read it or heard it, it was definitely going to prompt some reaction and feeling in me. The living conditions were not the best. Lot of people lived in poverty. The safety was not guaranteed, and avoiding problems was a big positive. There were divisions among the colonies themselves, resulting in tensions and conflict of interests. Such conditions, and hearing or reading to this phrase, would provide motivation for me personally, as it is the hard times when a person shows true character and what that person is made of. It will make me push even harder in order to have better life, and provide better life for my family, and give my best to overcome all obstacles, proving to myself and my loved ones that they can have it better and that they deserve better, but it can only be achieved through strong will, sacrifice, and work.

British frustration with the American colonies during the French and Indian War cited all of the following factors EXCEPT:
Viktor [21]

Answer: C.) British officers were often forced to serve in subordinate roles to their colonial counterparts.

For the most part, this was the opposite. The frustration was on the part of the colonial forces as they were often forced to serve in subordinate roles.

The clash of command was a serious problem for the militias. British officers generally regarded themselves as higher than colonial ones, which colonial officers considered an offence. The solution was to divide each militia unit into smalled commands, and to recommisision militia officers with a rank of captain and above with a rank of captain. This demoted all the high-ranking colonial officers and placed them as subordinate to British captains. The new system was extremely unpopular with colonials and caused many of them to resign from the military.
