Answer:
Louisiana Purchase was one of the biggest and most prosperous deals America managed to acquire in history. An entire part of the Western territory would come under American control, doubling the country’s size in minutes without a single battle being fought.
After the French Indian Wars, western parts of Louisiana were under the Spanish control while Eastern parts were under the British rule. After America got independence from the British, the western parts were still under the Spanish rule. These regions were of strategic importance in terms of commerce and trade. Spain ceded the entire Louisiana region to the French in return for some regions under Italy. France got back its control in the American regions. The presence of European countries on its western borders troubled America. The then President, Thomas Jefferson, offered Napoleon Bonaparte two million dollars to buy parts of the lower Mississippi. He later increased the cash price to ten million dollars that would allow America to buy New Orleans and West Florida. France on the other hand did not see any financial gains by staying on in the region. It offered America the entire western regions of Louisiana to Livingston for 15 million dollars. The deal was signed and with a single agreement, the size of the US doubled. This deal aided in making the country one of the largest in the world. The resources and richness of the lands acquired were unimaginable.

Answer:
Moderate delegates of Congress wanted peaceful reconciliation between the colonies and Parliament
↓
Congress sent the Olive Branch petition to King George III to help resolve conflicts between the colonies and Parliament
↓
King George III declared the colonies to be in rebellion
↓
Congress moved to issue a formal declaration of independence.
Explanation:
In 1774, the First Continental Congress sent a polite and respectful petition to King George III in order to inform him about the acts of oppression and to to repeal on those intolerable acts penetrated by the British Parliament.
But the outbreak of conflict at Lexington and Concord in 1775 led the King to issue a proclamation that the colonies are in open rebellion to his authority and as a result of that will be severely punished.
So, in 1776, delegates from the thirteen colonies came to formally make a move for a declaration of independence.
Therefore, the above order in my answer is correct.
1. Night of Long Knives (1934)
4. Kristallnacht (1938)
3. Auschwitz opens (1940)
2. Wannsee Conference (1942)
Now a couple of these were a little hard to place, for Auschwitz, I simply put the year in which it was first operational. I've placed the years by the side of each for your reference.
