Answer:

<h2>Escaped slaves who took up arms for the king would be freed</h2>

Explanation:

Dunmore signed the proclamation issued by John Murray on November 7, 1775. Lord Murray was the governor of the colony of Virginia, he was fourth Earl of Dunmore and was known as Lord Dunmore.

This proclamation declared the martial law and promised that the slaves would be freed if they ran away from their owners and joined the royal forces. It was proclaimed on November 15.

More than 80,000 slaves enlisted themselves with Dunmore. It caused fear among the slave owners of Virginia as they were afraid of slave rebellion. Although the proclamation couldn't fulfil Dunmore's objectives and he had to flee from the colony in 1776.

Answer:

India

Explanation:

The comparative advantage is known as the ability of a person, company or country to produce a good using relatively less resources than another.

The cost per hour of producing glasses is lower. 2. With the same money set aside for wages, more workers can be paid in India, resulting in increased production of cups.

Compared with the decision in Plessy v. Ferguson, this opinion refutes the doctrine of “separate but equal.” supports the doctri
nasty-shy [4]

Plessy was a citizen who claimed to be seventh eights Caucasian and only one eighth Black. He was imprisoned and trial in a criminal court after an incident that took place while in New Orleans, in 1896, when he tried to board a car designated for hite people. He was denied a seat in the car for white people and urged to take a seat in the car for black people. As Plessy refused on the basis of his predominantly Caucasian race, the train staff arrested him, and then he was put in the parish jail. He was charged with criminal counts, but Plessy requested his case to be presented to the Supreme Court for he deemed there had been violations of the Thirteen and Fourteenth Amendments (abolition of slavery and equal treatment).

The Supreme Court's opinion stated that the treatment based on "equal but separated" did not conflict with the Thirteenth Amendment, for this amendment only protected citizens from being enslaved or forced to involuntary servitude, and no conflict was found with the Fourteenth Amendment since it enforced equality, but it did not specify under which terms. Therefore, the decision of the Supreme Court supported the doctrine "equal but separate" and segregation as well.
