Answer:

Both revolutions were partially the result of people's concern about taxes.

Explanation:

Both the American and french revolution were the result of the burden of taxes on a particular section of society. While in America the oppressors were British colonial masters, the common people of France were under the burden of taxes of the priest and nobility. Secondly, the ideals of freedom and liberty advocated by philosophers like Locke and Rousseau influenced the revolutionary spirit of both the nations.

The correct answer is C.

Both revolutions were triggered due to a bad financial situation that led to the increase in the tax burden that mostly affected the unprivileged social classes. From this point onwards, the two revolutions developed based on the Enlightment principles as the unpriveleged claimed for decision power.

The Enlightenment philosophers, such as Locke, Monstequieu or Rosseau. introduced ideas that challenged, and ended up derrocating, the power structures of the Old Regime. They promoted reason and the scientific method over religious dogmatism and superstititions.

The main principles developed were the following: definition of bills of citizens' rights, social contract (citizens electing political representatives to create goverments through suffrage, in opposition to the prevailing absolute monarchies), and the division of the powers of the state in order to avoid excessive power accumulation in certain sectors, and risks of authoritarism.

What was the primary way the farms in the south differed from those in the north ?
ehidna [41]

The primary way that farms in the south differed from those in the north is because the farms of the south raised cash crops using a plantation system.

Further Explanation:

In colonial America (1600-1775), slave labor was used throughout the 13 American colonies. In the North, slaves were used in industries such as shipbuilding. In the South, slaves were used for planting cash crops like tobacco, rice, and indigo.

Once America became independent and started developing its own rules, the views on slavery changed. After 1800, some states started to outlaw slavery while other states kept it. One of the biggest changes was that Southern states focused predominantly on growing one extremely important cash crop, cotton. America became the largest exporter of cotton in the world.

Despite the economic success, slavery brought with it many negative effects such as the mistreatment of African Americans, fights between abolitionists and pro slavery citizens, etc.

Ultimately, this institution would be one of the main factors in sparking the Civil War.
