History

The Battle of Yorktown, also called the Siege of Yorktown, fought from October 6–20, 1781.[1] It is considered the last major land battle of the American Revolutionary War.[1] The Continental Army, led by General George Washington, won a decisive victory against the British Army, led by General Lord Charles Cornwallis.[1] Cornwallis was forced to surrender after being surrounded by Washington's army.[1]

The Americans were assisted by the French, led by the Comte de Rochambeau. The battle took place in Yorktown, Virginia, near the York River. After the French fleet defeated a British fleet, Cornwallis was cut off and had to surrender to the French and the Continental Army. Eventually, it led to the Treaty of Paris in 1783, two years later.

In your opinion, did Columbus discovered the West Indies? Discuss why.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

In my opinion Columbus did discover the west indies because the definition it states "Discover means to find (something or someone) unexpectedly or in the course of a search." never in the definition does it mention in order to "discover" something you have to be the first one to find it or be the first one to come across such and such. I see why some people might disagree but if it were in terms of if Columbus founded the west indies I would have a completely different opinion because there were people their before he was "there were already people living there. The Taino and Carib were the largest groups in the region when Columbus arrived in 1493. ..." The definition of founded is "establish or originate (an institution or organization), especially by providing an endowment." which would confirm he ONLY discovered and didn't found the west indies when both definitions are juxtaposed this is made clear.

Do you agree with this analysis that united states v. nixon expanded the power of the presidency? why or why not?
ZanzabumX [31]
I would disagree with the statement "United States vs. Nixon expanded the power of the presidency." In reality, it shrank the power of the president.

In this Supreme Court case, Richard Nixon refused to give up taped conversations he had from the Oval Office. Nixon claimed that this action was protected by the idea of "executive privilege." This meant that because he was president, he had the ability to keep these tapes from going to the courts. However the Supreme Court, in a unanimous vote, stated that the president must give up the tapes. This showed that no person was above the law, including the president. This shows that the presidents are responsible to the courts and do not have special protection in legal cases.
