The movie the Patriot shows the efforts of Southern resistance fighters during the American revolution.

The movie indicates, correctly, that many who fought in the American Revolution as older men fought in the French & Indian War as younger men.

Answer:

Benjamin Martin, the main character of The Patriot, was a hero of the French and Indian War.

Explanation:

The film mostly takes place in South Carolina (where it was entirely shot) and depicts the story of an American dragged into the American Revolution when his family is threatened. The protagonist, Benjamin Martin, is approximately inspired by the Continental Army officer Francis Marion and other figures of the American Revolution.  He is a veteran colonel of the French and Indian War, a widower, father of seven children. Benjamin does his best to avoid fighting in the American Revolution, knowing what that implied. When his eldest son Gabriel gets ready and when they kill his second oldest son, Thomas, he decides to take justice by his hand in fighting the Red Coats under the command of the colonial militia.

In the 1890s, the farmers' alliance evolved into the people's party (or populists), the era's greatest political insurgency. Ide
Naya [18.7K]

The Populist Party wanted to push several issues at the time in the 1890s in the United States.  

1. Free Silver--one of their biggest platforms was to change the currency to free silver to make it more affordable for the average person to use, instead of having money backed up by the gold standard.

2. Eight hour workday--They wanted to have workers and laborers be given an eight hour workday to give workers better working conditions than what they currently faced.

3. Income tax--They wanted to have a federal income tax (which later becomes the 16th Amendment) to have different taxes for people based on their income, or how much money they would make.  So essentially, a very wealthy person would have higher taxes than a poor person.

4. Regulation of the railroad--They wanted the government to regulate the railroad instead of the big businesses regulating the railroad and coming up with the prices.  The farmers especially felt as though it was not fair to allow the business owners to set the prices.

The Populist Party was essentially called the People's Party because they wanted to better represent and recognize the common people in government.

4. Which industries produced great profits and wealth in the late 1800s? What does this reveal
777dan777 [17]

Well an obvious answer would be slavery, depending on how late you're talking. After slavery ended, the country began what is known as the "industrial revolution". The north had already begun industrializing for a while, but in the 1870's and beyond, things ramped up quite a bit. Factories for clothes, shoes, farming equipment, packaged foods, and etc. became more popular. You also had coal mines, railroads, and steel mills. This showed the country was moving in the direction of mass production, and moving away from agricultural ways of living. This also meant child labor, which led to many child labor laws in the later years. This also meant many moved out of farming communities, and into larger, noisy, and crowded cities. Many immigrated to the US to take advantage of that, which led to some tension between communities.

Hope that helps!
