What made France a likely candidate of foreign aid to the Patriots?

History

Answer: Their rivalry with Britain and the Enlightenment ideas of the population

Explanation:

The French and the British were rivals at the time of the American revolution especially after the culmination of the Seven Year War which saw the British emerge as Europe's strongest naval and colonial power. France therefore wanted to weaken the British and their influence and so saw the American Revolution as a way to do so.

At the same time, the common population of France also supported the revolution because they were believers in the ideas of Enlightenment which called for the liberty and freedom of all men. With the support of both the people and the Government, France was therefore made a very likely candidate for foreign aid to the Patriots.

The Revolution was quite expensive for France however and was one of the reason the monarchy was overthrown a some years after the Revolution.

What were the most important factors that contributed to Barack Obama's election in 2008?
FrozenT [24]

The population was dissatisfied with the Republican policies and the promises Obama made had been very enticing.

Explanation:

Obama was an unlikely president in spite of his long winded political career and savvy politics not the least because of his skin color and the nature of the country at the time in the middle of a long winded war on terror that did not look like it was going to end any time soon.

Obama was elected as a polar opposite alternative to the President Bush who had not made the people satisfied with his efforts and the country seemed to be in a huge crisis in his time.

Which is an argument against affirmative action
spin [16.1K]

Arguments AGAINST Affirmative Action: Affirmative action is reverse discrimination. The past discrimination against certain minority groups does not justify present discrimination against non-minorities.
