Whick of the following was not a major threat to the survival of the jamestown colony
gavmur [86]

Answer choices:

The Spanish

The French

Germs such as typhoid fever

Native Americans

Mosquito carrying diseases such as malaria

Answer:      

The French

Explanation:

In the first years of settlement, the Jamestown Colony suffered from hunger, death, illness, and infections such as malaria, typhoid, and dysentery. They were also in constant conflict with Native Americans and lived under the threat of being attacked by them. Spain, which was also interested in establishing colonies and had begun to gain America's territory for a while now, was also a threat to the settlers in the colony and was constantly spying on them. The French, however, was not a major threat to the survival of the Jamestown Colony.

What important event led to the decline in McClellan’s popularity?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The event that led to the decline in McClellan's popularity was that Confederate soldiers almost invaded the White House after the Battle of Antietam.

Explanation:

After the defeat of Union troops under General Irvin McDowell in the First Battle of the Bull Run, George McClellan received command of the Potomac Army in the summer of 1861, which had to bear the brunt of the fighting. From November 5, 1861 to March 11, 1862, he was also commander in chief of the army. As army commander in chief, he proved to be an excellent organizer; but also as an overly hesitant military leader. He formed the demoralized force into a powerful army, but was then reluctant to deploy it. He tended to make grotesque misjudgments of the balance of power by repeatedly overestimating the strength of the opposing troops and demanding reinforcements. It was not until massive government pressure that he advanced in March 1862 against the Confederate capital in Richmond, Virginia. He won most of the battles against the outnumbered Confederate Northern Virginia Army General Robert E. Lee, but withdrew from Virginia unsuccessfully after the Seven Days Battles.

McClellan was called to Annapolis to organize a new army. On September 17, 1862, he fought against General Lee in the bloody Battle of Antietam, which proved to be a strategic win with Lee's retreat from Maryland, but failed to defeat the weakened opponent (whom he again considered much stronger than it was in truth) and possibly end the war early. This renewed hesitation cost him command of the Potomac army; Abraham Lincoln replaced him with Major General Ambrose E. Burnside.
