The Battle of Tours (10 October 732)[8] – also called the Battle of Poitiers and, by Arab sources, the Battle of the Highway of the Martyrs (Arabic: معركة بلاط الشهداء‎, translit. Ma'arakat Balāṭ ash-Shuhadā’)[9] – was fought by Frankish and Burgundian[10][11] forces under Charles Martel against an army of the Umayyad Caliphate led by Abdul Rahman Al Ghafiqi, Governor-General of al-Andalus. It was fought in an area between the cities of Poitiers and Tours, in the Aquitaine of west-central France, near the village of Moussais-la-Bataille, about 20 kilometres (12 mi) northeast of Poitiers. The location of the battle was close to the border between the Frankish realm and the then-independent Duchy of Aquitaine under Odo the Great. The Franks were victorious. Abdul Rahman Al Ghafiqi was killed, and Charles subsequently extended his authority in the south. Details of the battle, including its exact location and the number of combatants, cannot be determined from accounts that have survived. Notably, the Frankish troops won the battle without cavalry.[12]

Which statement best describes the political position of Great Britain during the civil war?
bonufazy [111]

The correct answer is C) the British government favored the North over the South.

The statement that best describes the political position of Great Britain during the Civil War was "the British government favored the North over the South."

The British government tried to maintain neutrality but had political interests with the North and economic interest with the South. On paper, they supported the North because England did not want another confrontation with the Union that could end up in war. The Union warned foreign countries not to support the rebel states in any way because it could be an act of war against the United States. But Britain imported cotton from the Confederated states plantations, so they were very cautious to keep trading with the South and avoid a political confrontation with the North
