The confederates burned Richmond for strategic reasons:

1) The Union cannot use Richmond as a staging area. If Richmond became a staging area, it would have not only a moral effect on the Confederate troops, but also allow the Union to regroup and press the attack.

2) There were a large amount of resources that could not be transported away from Richmond on time. However, if the resources fell into the hands of the Union, it would have spelled a quicker defeat for the Confederates.

Answer:

A. The assembly served as a model for other colonial legislatures.

Explanation:

The Virginia House of Burgesses was a government institution in Virginia from 1619 to 1776. In this, the colonies elected representatives whose function was to make certain political decisions and approve laws for the colony. This colonial institution was later replaced by a most modern institution, known as the House of Delegates. However, the creation of the Virginia House of Burgesses was extremely important because it was one of the first institutions with elected representatives, which serve as a model for many other institutions not only in Virginia but also in other colonies. According to this, the correct answer is A.

Another person answered this too.... and they said A too.

Which European nation developed a less centrallzee system of government than the others
monitta

The correct answer is letter D

A centralized government is one that concentrates power and decisions in the hands of a few people, usually the federal sphere (chief executive and ministers) has power and control over state and municipal spheres.

Decision making in an state can be centralized or decentralized. Centralization is the way in which the location of decision making is close to the top of the organization. Decentralization, on the other hand, puts pressure on the lower hierarchical levels to make decisions.
