1. During his commission with the Continental Army, he became a close confidant and long-time friend of George Washington. In 1779, Lafayette was granted leave from the Continental Army to return to France. His goal was to secure additional aid from the king to help the American colonists fight the British.

2 referring to An Improbable French Leader in America.

lafayette was born as the child of French Nobles and has been lived in luxury ever since he's born.

If he join the American cause, he will discredit his family which benefits the most from the structure that currently imposed by the French government.

The Marquis de Lafayette was an improbable leader in the American Revolutionary War. ... And yet, despite his wealth and high standing in French aristocracy, Lafayette was not content. During a stay in Paris, he learned of the American colonists' revolt against the British.

What conclusion did deists draw from the rational, mechanistic workings of the universe?
nikdorinn [45]
Deists believe in God - they believe he is the one who created everything in the very beginning, but then left us to our own devices to decide what we wanted to do with our lives. They do believe God exists, but they think that he doesn't interfere with anything on Earth, be it science, or mechanistic workings of the universe in general.

What is true about using multiple sources of information on a topic?
notka56 [123]
Sources are used in a paper to show what ideas inspired you and whose theories you would be using and you cite the sources in order to avoid plagiarism. If you don't have sources, your paper will not be valid and you could get accused of plagiarism. The more sources you use the better but you should keep in mind that they need to be important for the paper and used with a purpose and not just to increase the number of sources.

Why does Menelaus still value and accept Helen, even though her elopement with Paris led to the Trojan War?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Menelaus still values and accepts Helen because she is still very beautiful, he also blames the gods for her actions and not her.

Explanation:

Helen is the most beautiful woman in the world and that was why Paris wanted her.

Although Helen went with Paris willingly, the legend tells us that it was at the will of Aphrodite, who promised Paris the love of the most beautiful woman in the world in exchange for a golden apple. (The apple itself wasn't really important as it was a contest between Aphrodite, Hera, and Athena to see who was the most beautiful goddess.) So, invariably the decision to go with Paris was not Helen's fault but the blame rests with the gods who made her do it.
