Answer:

southern plantation owners needed more labor at lower costs.

Explanation:

After the indentured servants time was up for 4-7 years they were required to work, the owner had to pay them. The indentured servants were given money, food, and a small bit of land. Eventually, there was too much indentured servants to provide for. Plantation owners had to buy slaves so they didn't lose as much money and land. Slaves didn't get land, money, or freedom. While indentured servants were freed after their 4-7 years of working. Sometimes, some people were born into slavery.

madam [21]

The larger goal was uniting Americans around the war effort.

Cracking down on dissent would be a negative action in support of the larger, positive goal the government sought. The government wanted a fully united public in support of the war, and so it put out the message that that freedom of speech might have its limits in times of war.

How did Portugal gain an advantage in trading in comparison to other European nations?
mixer [17]

Answer:

The biggest changes were in rigging. At first they concentrated on lateen sails, then added a mix of square sails and lateen for deeper penetration into the South Atlantic, with further changes for the much longer route round the Cape. Knowledge of these techniques was protected by forbidding sales of ships to other countries. A third commercial advantage was Portugal's ability to absorb “new Christians” — Jewish merchants and scholars had played a significant role during Muslim rule.

Hope this helps! If so please mark brainliest and rate/heart to help my account if it did!!
