Why did the confederates burn Richmond as president Davis and his cabinet fled?

History

Anit [1.1K]3 years ago

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.

I believe the answer for this one is that the Nazis blamed the Jews for social, political, economic conditions in Germany. The Germans would soon take it to the extreme, and "punish" them by committing one of the worst crimes possible, genocide, because of the Anti-Semistic views.

Does the growing number of interest groups support Byrd’s conclusion? Give your answer in the form of a brief paragraph
tekilochka [14]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Yes, the growing number of interest groups support US Senator Byrd’s conclusion.

There is too much money involved in interest groups, and an increasing number of these groups have been appearing in the United States political scene. Senator Byrd was worried about this increased number and lack of control over these groups. Let's have in mind that these interest groups hire lobbyists to negotiate with legislators and offer support. But the US Congressmen had to be aware that it is the citizens that voted for them and put them in Congress as their representatives. So they serve the people, not the particular agendas of interest groups.
