The slaves were promised freedom if they fought for the British. It is known that Black men enlisted at a higher rate than white men. Most free blacks fought for the Patriots.
Democratic-Republican Societies were locally-organized political agrupations that arose in the US territory during 1793-94 aiming to promote and work towards democracy and republicanism and to extinguish aristocratic ideas.
The first society was established in 1793: the Germans of Philadelpia. More than 35 new ones flourished until 1975. Many of their leaders ended up becoming part of Jefferson's Democratic-Republican Party, that he founded at a national level.
The societies claimed for equal justice and knowledge diffusion. But the main and ultimate goal was to "<em>support and perpetuate the EQUAL RIGHTS OF MAN</em>" as, for instance, the society in NY explicitly stated. These rights included freedom of speech, opinion, press, assembly which in turn granted the right to express opinions regarding the job done by government representatives, to demand explanations about public policies and acts, the right to translate those opinion into written format and to spread them by using the press.
Answer:
A country's geography influences the development of its society and culture in many ways. Its location in relation to other nations has an effect on intercultural influences; its size affects demography, the development of social structures, and its position in the international community. Its topography dictates to a large extent where and how its people earn their livings, and its climate influences its agriculture and styles of living. The following maps will demonstrate these and other aspects of the influence of geography on national development.
Explanation:
Japan is a shimaguni (island country): The Japanese archipelago (island chain) consists of four main islands--Honshû, Shikoku, Kyûshû and Hokkaidô--and thousands of smaller surrounding ones (see map 1). It lies off the Pacific coast of the Asian mainland; at the closest point, the main Japanese islands are 120 miles away from the mainland. (See map 2). Compare this with another shimaguni, Great Britain, which is, at the narrowest point of the English Channel, only 21 miles from Europe.
The total land space of the Japanese islands is about 142,000 square miles. As you can see from map 2 and map 3, it is a very small country when compared with the vast Asian mainland, or with the United States, where it is smaller than the single, although large, state of California. It seems even smaller when you realize how little of its land is useful for agriculture or housing, as we will discuss below. China, the United States, and a few other giants of the world are the unusual ones, however. Japan does not seem so small when compared with some of the nations of Western Europe. It is, for example, larger than Italy. (See map 4).
