Answer:
Formally announce the independence of the American colonies.
List the grievances that the colonies had against the British government.
Explanation:
The Declaration of Independence is the written document that was signed on July 4, 1776, declaring the independence of the colonies from British rule. This document was adopted at the Second Continental Congress meeting held in Pennsylvania, becoming the formal declaration of independence of the United States.
The main purpose of this declaration is to announce the freedom of the American colonies from under the clutches of the British monarchy. It also lists a number of grievances that the newly independent colonies had against the British government, some of which were taxation without consent, no fair trial, etc.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
The exit of Union troops from the territory of Southern states marked a symbolic end to the Reconstruction Era. It followed a major political deal between Republicans and Southern Democrats. The 1876 election was a disputed election; results from Louisiana, Florida and South Carolina - three states where Republicans still governed - were questioned. The deal recognized the victory of Republican Rutherford Hayes as president and agreed to Democratic control in the South.
In the 1870s, the Republican Party had turned more conservative and less egalitarian, and though the 14th and the 15th Amendments had been passed by Congress to give rights to African-Americans, Southern legislatures had passed laws that put important barriers to the African-American voters to exercise their rights.
The Culture, Language, History, Geography, Economics and Ethnic Background of the two regions were very different.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The British separated Pakistan and India based on the religion along with the Independence. Pakistan ( as in these days ) was separated based on the Muslim majority and India was separated based on the Hindu majority. Also, there was another land in the east of India with a Muslim majority that refused to mingle along with India. And it named East Pakistan ( Bangladesh these days ).
Those lands were separated by more than 1000 miles. These distances changed the cultural pattern of East and West Pakistan. Also, East Pakistan was adjacent to the Indian territory by three sides. This resulted in the variation of language, history, economics, geography, ethnic background and other cultural patterns between those Pakistan lands.
Poll taxes for voters were "all of the above", since their main purpose was to keep African Americans from voting in some Southern States following the Civil War.
