Answer:

Prior to the War of 1812, the British navy engaged in impressment, which meant that they forced American sailors serve on British ships.

Explanation:

Impressment refers to the forcible recruitment of seafarers for war and merchant ships. This type of deprivation of liberty was also used at times for supplementing the army.

The British Royal Navy used impressment as a means for compulsory recruitment from the Elizabethan Age, and since 1563 this was legally legitimized. Even after American independence, Americans continued to be forced into the Navy as Britain continued to consider all Americans born British as its citizens. In the course of the coalition wars, around 9,000 Americans were forcibly recruited into the British fleet. This approach was one reason for the outbreak of the War of 1812.

Determine whether the following characteristics describe conditions in Germany before or after unification.
yuradex [85]
<span><u>written constitution = </u><u>after unification</u>
<em /><em>During revolutions in 1848-1849, the Frankfurt Parliament had produced a constitution for a unified Germany, but that move was rejected at the time by the king of Prussia, to whom the constitution was offered. </em>

<u>300 German states = </u><u>before unification</u>
<em>The German states had a long history of sovereignty in their individual territories.  <u>Unification</u> meant bringing all those states together into one national entity.
</em>
<u>trade facilitated in the region = </u><u>before unification</u>
<em>The Zollverein, or customs union, was created between the German states in the 1830s.  This eliminated customs tariffs between states and was a step that began moving in the direction of unification.
</em>
<u>risk of French aggression = </u><u>before unification</u>
<em>Germany became a united empire after the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. Victory over France in that war by the German states operating as a coalition was part of what brought about unification.
</em>
<u>boundaries changed by Napoleon = </u><u>before unification</u>
<em>When Napoleon conquered territories throughout Europe in the early 1800s, he rearranged borders to enhance his empire's management of conquered territories. In the German states, this made them work together in ways they had not before, and was a catalyst toward desires for unification.
</em>
<u>two-house legislature = </u><u>after unification</u>
<em />
<em>There was a legislature in the North German Confederation (1867-1870), which preceded unification.  But that was a single-house (unicameral) parliament, whereas the Reichstag (legislature) of the unified German Empire was bicameral.</em>
