Why did the Confederates burn Richmond as President Davis and his cabinet fled?
liubo4ka [24]

The Confederates burned Richmond as President Davis and his cabinet fled to make sure the Union Army could not use Confederate resources.

During the American Civil War, Richmond became the capital of the Confederate States of America.

On April 2, 1865, more than 25% of the buildings in the city were destroyed by fire after the withdrawal of the Confederate soldiers, who burned all the Confederate resources to make them unusable for the Union.

On April 3, 1865, Ulysses S. Grant and the Union Army captured Richmond, and the state capital was then transferred to Lynchburg. The Army of North Virginia, commanded by Robert Lee retired and surrendered six days later before Grant in the Appomattox Court House, becoming the symbolic end of the war.

Finger [1]

Answer:

it prevents all sleeper or hideout plays and  prevents a shift from occurring.

<u>Explanation</u>:

I inferred this question is referring to <em>flag football </em>game rules. Interestingly, flag football unlike other sports requires a team of seven players with a minimum of 5 to continue a game.

By allowing seven men on the line of scrimmage prevented hideout plays from unknown players, and since only one offensive player could be in motion it also prevented a shift from occurring.
