Which caused Great Britain and France to declare war on Germany in 1939 was the invasion of Poland by the German army on September 1, 1939. There were already tensions between these three countries since the beginning of the Spanish war in 1936, but the war was not officially declared.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The aggressive attitude of Adolf Hitler since his election as leader of Germany in 1933 worried France, Great Britain, and other European countries. The First World War had been so horrible, and no one wanted to take the risk to live another war.

After losing from France in 1918, Germany had to sign the Treaty of Versailles which imposed many hard conditions to accept. But when Adolf Hitler lead Germany, he didn't respect this treaty anymore.

He asked all Germans to participate in military training and gradually reinforced his army in all the cities. He started to attack all over Europe. First, he helped the dictator Franco to take power in Spain. Then he attacked the countries around Germany such as Austria and Czechoslovakia to expand his territory. After that, Hitler's biggest attack was when he invaded Poland which caused the Second World War and became the reason for France and Great Britain to declare war.

dexar [7]

Answer:  b. King George III

Details:

Jefferson provided a list of "facts to be submitted to a candid world" to demonstrate that the British king, George III, had been seeking to establish "an absolute Tyranny over these States" (the colonial states which were declaring their independence).  

Jefferson's list included items such as:

  • The king refused to assent to laws that were wholesome and necessary for the public good.
  • The king had forbidden colonial governors to enact laws or implement laws without his assent (which, as the prior point noted, he was in no hurry to give).
  • The king forced people to give up their rights to legislative assembly or forced legislative bodies to meet in difficult places that imposed hardships on them.
  • The king dissolved legislative assemblies and then refused for a long time to have other assemblies elected.
  • The king obstructed justice in the colonies and made judges dependent on his will alone for their salaries and their tenure in office.
  • The king kept standing armies in place in the colonies in peacetime, without the consent of the colonial legislatures.
  • The king imposed taxes without the colonists' consent.

These and additional items listed in the Declaration were meant to support the colonies' position that tyranny was standard operating procedure by the British monarchy, and therefore revolution was justified.
