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.

Why did England choose the north over the south a. England was importing cotton from other places in europe b. England disagreed
jolli1 [7]

The correct answer is - b. England disagreed with the southern leaders.

The political views of the leaders of the South were much different to those of the leaders of the North. The prime reason for dispute being the slavery, with the North being against slavery, and the South being pro-slavery.

England was much closer in its political views with the North, especially with the issue of the slavery, as England was also propagating for the abolishing of the slavery. Because of this, when it came time for choosing sides, England choose the side with which it had more common things, or rather with the side that was on the same political frequency with it.
