History

Answer:

The conflict between the British, and their colonies, began as both the Americans gained an identity of their own that was separate from that they had inherited from the British, and also because of several decisions made by the British Parliament, and King George III, that literally obliterated any rights that Americans might have once enjoyed as British subjects. These two major issues brought forth, as well as the contact with ideals on human rights, the rights of the governed, and others, that had begun in France, but were also part of the English Bill of Rights, the ideas on independence.

According to the Declaration of Independence, and its 27-point long list of grievances, the Americans had been denied their unalienable rights, those afforded to all human beings within a state: amongs which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

The King, and Parliament, denied colonists this right in several ways: by imposing governors to the colonies, by imposing taxes when Americans were denied access to represent their colonies in the British Parliament, called taxation without representation, by ignoring the repeated petitions of the colonies to intervene when grave misconduct was being carried out by British officials and government representatives, by blocking the rights of colonists to trade with other nations, and even amongst themselves, and finally, by failing to provide protection to the colonists from the repeated savage attacks of the Natives.

These are only a few of the reasons, but were amongst the most potent, to decide Americans to support the cause of Independence. The Declaration was the written justification as to why the American colonies chose to break away from their motherland.

Assuming you mean the the deceleration of independence.   quote:

"He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.

He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.

He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.

He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their Public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.

He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.

He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected, whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.

He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.

He has obstructed the Administration of Justice by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers.

He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

For protecting them, by a mock Trial from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:

For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury:

For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:

For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies

For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:

For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.

He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.

He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.

He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.

He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.

He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions."

Discuss the legacy of european colonialism in africa in terms of language and religion
nikdorinn [45]
<span>The legacy of European colonialism influenced the language and religion in Africa. In the nineteenth century, Europe expanded in Africa to expand in search of raw materials and markets. In this period many Africans were converted to Christianity as part of a colonial influence on religion. Several branches of Christianity and Catholicism grew. The first African churches experienced significant growth in the 20th and 21st centuries. The language in Africa is quite extensive with official languages and unofficial languages. With the introduction of the European colonies to the continent, Africa has the Indo-European languages, English and Afrikaans, while the other nine are languages of the Bantu family.</span>

Through good economic years and bad, many european economies had unemployment rates hovering near _________ since the 1970s.
xenn [34]
The correct answer is 10%.

Sometimes these numbers were higher, sometimes they were lower, but in general, good economic years hovered around 10% which was not so bad for the society since it's impossible to reduce it to 0% and it is also easy for it to go way over 10%, so the 10% mark was acceptable for numerous countries in Europe.
