Answer:

Explanation:  BATTLE OF LEXINGTON

First Act

In the colonies an atmosphere of anxiety reigned over the news issued by Dr. Joseph Warrien that an attack was coming by British troops under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Francis Smith, so the settlers were on high alert.

Scene I

Narrator: Dr. Joseph Warrien suddenly enters to give important news. His countenance was of total concern.

Dr. Josep Warrien: People, we must be vigilant, on alert… there is nothing to fail. It is a fact that British soldiers took a weapons depot in Concord and most likely attack us at any time.

John Adams: It is important to recruit soldiers and choose a wise man to lead our troops. I suggest George Washington. Well, his performance during all this time has been impeccable.

George Washington: Thank you very much for the trust you place in me.

Second Act

Scene II

After an endless battle, the army in charge of the commander in chief, George Washington, was assembled, drawing conclusions from his men's combat against the English troop in Bunker Hill.

George Washington: (With a face of fatigue and visibly tired) this fight is bloody, we are at a disadvantage, but we will not give up. We have managed to endure the attack.

Thomas Jefferson: However, we must be careful with those militiamen who support the English army. They are treacherous people without national identity, for not fighting for this cause and being in favor of the tyranny of the English Crown.

Narrator: The soldiers retired to rest.

Third Act

Scene III

Narrator: The American army and all the colonists in general, spent difficult days during the war, knew how to repel fighting, knew how to entrench themselves to finally emerge victorious and achieve the long-awaited independence of the United States of America from the yoke imposed by Britain.

(Meeting and addressing the congress)

George Washington: Thank you for supporting! The fight was not easy...

Thomas Jefferson: All men are born equal ... and we possess inalienable rights

Benjamin Franklin: Long live the United States of America!

John Adams: From now on we are totally free!      

         END…

In a small town, people are divided into two opposing sides. Those who support the British rule are called Loyalists while those who are against the colonizers are the Patriots. Most of the Loyalists hold office positions and felt that the British will win the war. However, the Patriots still want to gain independence from the colonizers.

B. Analyzing Causes As you read about the Louisiana Purchase, write down the reasons that Napoleon might have had for selling th
kari74 [83]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The reasons why Napoleon might have had for selling the Louisiana Territory to the United States could have been the following.

Experts agree on two basic reasons for French Emperor Napoleon decided to sell the huge Louisiana territory to the United States. The first reason, France needed a lot of money. It had deep debts as a result of many wars. Secondly, the Lousiana territory was immense and was too far away from France, so it was very difficult to defend.

These circumstances were an advantage to President Thomas Jefferson, who sent James Madison to help Robert Livingston (the Minister to France) in order to accelerate the negotiations to close the Louisiana Purchase in 1803.

What does the welfare of a country depend upon
slamgirl [31]

The welfare of a country depends on various factors, including access to education, health, the right to security, low unemployment rates among others.

There are different indicators created in order to effectively measure welfare in a country. The GDP (Gross Domestic Product) per capita, shows the amount of income after it has been evenly distributed among all of the citizens of a country. This, however, does not assess the issue of determining if, in fact, the income is being distributed equally. For this purpose, there is another indicator called the GINI index, which measures the actual equality in the distribution of income among the citizens of a country.
