We know that the landing of Colombo on the new continent was an extraordinary event and that it must be celebrated constantly, as we have done at the moment.

A new land is always exciting and exploring it will bring many positive results for the nation, but we cannot fail to mention the existence of inhabitants on that land and its importance in the new continent.

When Columbus arrived in America, he found it full of inhabitants, natives, totally different from us in appearance and personality. They look wild and have no fancy customs, but they have a civilization of their own that has apparently worked well for years. The natives live in tribes, each tribe has its language, its culture, its customs, its habits and its religions. They live on what nature offers and have peculiar traditions, besides seeing no value in gold or silver.

We must not suppress these people, but rather live in harmony with them, since they are the true owners of the land and have their own organization that we must respect, even without understanding.

to what extent did the British honor the treaty of 1783 which stated they recognized the United States and its new boundaries? W
Anvisha [2.4K]

The British removed their influence and recognized the US as a sovereign nation however they did not remove all of their troops from US lands.

Though the Treaty of Paris 1783 ended the Revolutionary War and Great Britain officially recognized the sovereignty and the independence of the United States. However, they did not remove troops from the US in particular along the western frontier and along the border with Canada. The continued presence of British troops was insulting enough but then the British began attacking US shipping and taking people off the boats to serve in the British army against the French in a system called impressment. These violations of US independence led to the war of 1812 which is considered the "2nd war of independence".

1. How does supporting the human with defenders align with the philosophies of america's founding fathers?
hoa [83]

To be a human rights defender, a person can act to address any human right (or rights) on behalf of individuals or groups. Human rights defenders seek the promotion and protection of civil and political rights as well as the promotion, protection and realization of economic, social and cultural rights.

Human rights defenders address any human rights concerns, which can be as varied as, for example, summary executions, torture, arbitrary arrest and detention, female genital mutilation, discrimination, employment issues, forced evictions, access to health care, and toxic waste and its impact on the environment. Defenders are active in support of human rights as diverse as the rights to life, to food and water, to the highest attainable standard of health, to adequate housing, to a name and a nationality, to education, to freedom of movement and to non-discrimination. They sometimes address the rights of categories of persons, for example women’s rights, children’s rights, the rights of indigenous persons, the rights of refugees and internally displaced persons, and the rights of national, linguistic or sexual minorities.
