The correct answer is national unity.
This speech was given just one month before the official end of the American Civil War. This war caused significant fighting between the Union and the Confederacy. This war caused the deaths of thousands of American citizens on both sides. As this war was winding down, Lincoln knew that these Confederate States would eventual become part of the US again. To ease this transition, he discusses how the US must "bind up the nation's wounds." When using this phrase, Lincoln is referring to how the Confederate and Union states must work together in order to unite the US once again.
Answer: Restoration of the Union, transformation of southern society, and enactment of progressive legislation favoring the rights of freed slaves.
American militia fighting on their own soil was arguably the largest technical factor in them winning the war. Americans knew the land they fought on, and therefore knew the best routes to take for supplies, troop movements, and where the British may have been hiding. American militias hired <em>frontiersmen</em>, men who had grown up in the woods and knew how to hunt and travel in them, to fight on their side of the war. This allowed for a huge advantage over the British in the ground battles of the war.
Americans also had something that the British did not: patriotism. The Americans knew that, if they did not win the war, they would have to go back to living under the unfair British rule, if they did not die that is. Americans were able to use this spirit to fight their war harder than the British did.
Americans did not fight England's war. They disregarded the European ideas of a gentleman's war and fought, as the British considered them, dirty. The Americans shot and killed commanding officers, shot and killed their horses, attacked at night and during meal and tea times, and other war strategies that went against how the British had been taught to fight their whole life. This gave Americans a large edge over the British in individual battles.
<em>A. They rejected Parliament’s right to manage their internal affairs.</em>
Explanation:
Following the French and Indian War, Great Britain decided to put taxes on the colonists. One of these tax laws was called the Stamp Act, which put taxes on printed items.
The colonists were not happy with these taxes and thought they were unfair, as they had nobody in the British Parliament to vouch for them, also known as "taxation without representation." Great Britain said they were actually taxing them fairly, as they needed to pay the debts for the French and Indian War and were providing the colonists with troops to protect them.
This caused tensions to rise between the colonists and Great Britain. The British colonial policies made the colonists start to want independence from Great Britain, as they felt everything they were doing was unfair. <u>They rejected the British Parliament's right to manage their internal affairs and essentially wanted to be left alone. </u>
