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.

What were the effects of western colonialism to the early modern period of Iran?
Debora [2.8K]
The colonial powers that strove to control Iran because of its geopolitical location were Russia and Britain. Russia controlled the north of the country while the south was under the British. The people tried to constitutionalise their country when the King repeatedly failed to deliver even though he promised to. Twice in the early modern period did Iran try to become a democracy with a constitution and rights for the people. Both times the efforts of the people were thwarted and crushed by external colonial influence. The continued interest of the Colonisers in the oil of Iran meant that they were not willing to let the people have a fair share of say or profit in the way the national resources of the country were used.
