If Giles pleads guilty, he will be granted spiritual reconcilliation; and be hanged.
If he pleads innocent, he will be found guilty and will be hanged while his soul is condemned to an eternity in hell.
Both scenarios would result in the crown stripping him of his land and assets leaving his sons and wife starving and penniless.

By remaining silent, the courts can neither confirm or deny his innocence; and as a result cannot take away his property.
<span>By enduring torture in silence, Giles ensured his families longevity by sacrificing his life. </span>

He captured 550 enemy soldiers and two naval vessels, one of which was captured from land. . . . He did this all without suffering a single defeat. His success was even more remarkable because a hurricane had sunk his supply ships." In this it states that he never suffered a single defeat.

Why did the mughal emperor recognize the right of the British east india company to collect taxes in norheast india
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

C) The British East India Company forced the weak emperor to accept this right

Explanation:

The strength and military power of the British government after they have pushed out the French forces resulted in the weakness of the emperor who has no other choice than to surrender the collection of taxes by the British East India Company to collect all taxes in North India.

However, it must be stated that the treaty of the Allahabad in 1765 which was signed by Mughal Emperor and Robert Cliff of the British East India Company gives the right and powers both economical and political to the British to collect all the taxes.
