Answer:

The correct answer is letter b: went through numerous boom-and-bust cycles.

Explanation:

Throughout the XVII and XVIII centuries the tobacco economy of the Chesapeake region experienced continuing cycles of prosperity and depression, the <em>“boom-and-bust”</em>. Tobacco at first dominated the economy, and in order to produce this commodity Virginia adopted slave labor; by 1700, the state was importing huge numbers of slaves to provide the labor required to plant and harvest the tobacco leaves, this way the plantations owners were able to increase their fortune by selling it to other countries. For long tobacco was a very used source of income; however this practice led to soil depletion, the removal of nutrients due to improper extractive practices.  As a result the production dropped and the state suffered economically. The war also contributed to eliminate most of Virginia’s trading fleet, for example.

Select the TWO statements that were true of U.S.-French relations.
aliina [53]
The first two statementz are the true ones because in the revolution, the french saw america as a weeb country. but once they saw how well america was doing against Britain, they chose to help america by giving aid and weapons.

and without the help of the French, america really would have lost the war because they were losing soldiers fast due to lack of resoures and disease lol.

plus the third one is wrong because the question os asking for US & France not France & Britain smh :)
