History

Oliga [24]3 years ago

<em>The rule of the British in India is possibly the most controversial and the most hotly debated aspect of the history of the British empire. Admirers of British rule point to the economic developments, the legal and administrative system, the fact that India became the centre of world politics. Critics of British rule generally point out that all of these benefits went to a tiny British ruling class and the majority of Indians gained little. Admirers of British rule counter this by saying that most Indians were poor and oppressed by their own leaders before the British arrived, and that British rule was less harsh on ordinary Indians than rule by Indian princes. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Perhaps the main reason why the arguments are so heated and so complex is that India was very different from the other territories that made up the empire. North America and Australia, for example, were sparsely populated and their populations were less economically developed than Britain. India, however, had a huge population and was just as developed as Britain in the 1700s when the British arrived. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>The British were able to take control of India mainly because India was not united. The British signed treaties and made military and trading alliances with many of the independent states that made up India. The British were very effective at infiltrating these states and gradually taking control. They often left the local princes in charge of the various parts of India. These local princes were effective at maintaining British rule and gained much from being loyal to the British.</em>

How did Congressional Reconstruction affect newly freed African Americans in the South?
Paladinen [302]
<span>new Southern state legislatures passed restrictive “black codes” to control the labor and behavior of former slaves and other African Americans. Outrage in the North over these codes eroded support for the approach known as Presidential Reconstruction and led to the triumph of the more radical wing of the Republican Party. During Radical Reconstruction, which began in 1867, newly enfranchised blacks gained a voice in government for the first time in American history, winning election to southern state legislatures and even to the U.S. Congress. In less than a decade, however, reactionary forces–including the Ku Klux Klan–would reverse the changes wrought by Radical Reconstruction in a violent backlash that restored white supremacy in the South.</span>

denis23 [38]

These are the options for the question:

A) Effective Military Leadership

B) Intervention from Britain and France

C) The fighting skill of Southern males

D) Its ability to fight on its own soil

E) Its belief that it was defending its way of life

And the correct answer is:

B) Intervention from Britain and France

Explanation:

The Confederacy was an important supplier of cotton to Europe, including Britain and France. The Confederate leadership believed that Britain and France would eventually intervene in their favour once the cotton supply went down because of the war.

Unfortunately for the Confederacy, this never happenned because Europe got the cotton it needed from other countries such as Egypt and India. Besides, the fact that the Confederacy supported slavery also prevented France and Britain from supporting them, because in both countries, slavery was unpopular.
