Answer:

The correct answer is Paine describes his anger over the king's lack of response to Lexington.

Explanation:

In this except Common Sense, the most famous pamphlet form the American Revolution obviously stresses out that king didn't do anything after the massacre itself, and that he has conscience, because he is sleeping with the blood of the people that died at Lexington on his soul.

Other answers are wrong because he doesn't believe in the reconciliation with Britain anymore and other answers are not related to this text also.

Answer:

The 16th century was a period of vigorous economic expansion. This expansion in turn played a major role in the many other transformations social, political, and cultural of the early modern age. By 1500 the population in most areas of Europe was increasing after two centuries of decline or stagnation. The bonds of commerce within Europe tightened, and the  wheels of commerce in the phrase of the 20th century French historian Fernand Braudel spun ever faster. The great geographic discoveries then in process were integrating Europe into a world economic system. New commodities, many of them imported from recently discovered lands, enriched material life. Not only trade but also the production of goods increased as a result of new ways of organizing production. Merchants, entrepreneurs, and bankers accumulated and manipulated capital in unprecedented volume. Most historians locate in the 16th century the beginning, or at least the maturing, of Western capitalism.

Hope this helps :)

Why is the Federal Reserve managed under the oversight of the federal government?
zloy xaker [14]

As the nation's central bank, the Federal Reserve derives its authority from the Congress of the United States. i hope this helps <3
