Why was New York City so difficult to defend against a British invasion? It had no established fortifications. It was surrounded

by water. It was difficult to maintain troops' attention in the city. Most colonists there were hostile to the rebellion.

Answer: It is surrounded by water on three sides. The royal navy was nothing to be messed with back then ( Still should not be taken lightly today)  This leaves the city to bombardment by cannons. If the citizens withdrew they would pretty much let the british in, if they stayed they risk being crushed or injured by cannon.

what did article 231 of the treaty of versailles demand regarding german reparations after world war 1
ankoles [38]
<span>It was Article 231 that came to be called the War Guilt clause that held Germany responsible for causing the war.  It humiliated the Germans and they were very angry about it.  It also forced the Germans to pay for damages caused by the war.  This bitter resentment among the Germans would later be used by Adolf Hitler to rally the German people under his leadership and led to the rise of Nazism in Germany.  When Hitler assumed power, he began invading one country after another which led to World War II.</span>

What did it mean for adam and eve to have been created with orignial holiness and original justuce?
frutty [35]
They literally had everything until the man fell into temptation. Know that in the Bible it says "man shall not eat the fruit" so technically when eve took the bite, she still didn't know it was bad until when Adam took the bite and he realized what he has done, that's when eve realized what she has done. If it were to say "man and woman" then the whole story would be so different. The Bible would be different as well.
