It’s the scape of the land
Answer:
Most of the fighting during the American Civil War took place on Southern soil. In part, this was the result of the war strategies of both sides. To win the war, the South had only to survive. On the other hand, for the North to win, the Union had to be restored. Thus, Union forces had to conquer the South in order to win the war. War action around their homes created many hardships for Southerners.
The hardships increased or intensified for other reasons as well. As an agricultural region, the South had more difficulty than the North in manufacturing needed goods--for both its soldiers and its civilians. One result was that Southern civilians probably had to make more real sacrifices during the war than Northern civilians did. In addition, part of Union war strategy was to use the Navy to blockade Southern ports. The Union hoped to stop the flow of goods between the South and other countries and strangle its foe economically.
To find additional sources in American Memory regarding the South during the Civil War, use words such as Yankee, Confederate, plantation, Civil War, and War Between the States, in your search.

According to the Declaration of Independence, King George The Third repeatedly dissolved Representative Houses. The most famous dissolution took place in 1768, when Governor Bernard of Massachusetts was ordered to dissolve the Massachusetts Provincial Congress. The representative house of Massachusetts had issued a letter stating that the taxes imposed by the colonists were not fair, since the colonists had no representation in the British Parliament. When asked to rescind the letter, the Provincial Congress opposed with <em>“manly firmness”</em> and refused to do so. In consequence, it was dissolved. The same happened to other representative houses, mainly because of their opposing to King’s attacks against the rights of people.

King George ordered that the colonies housed British soldiers, and that they should providing them with their best houses, furniture, bedding, cooking utensils, and anything else the soldiers needed.

<u>Answer 16:</u>
The King imposed taxes to the colonies without their consent. When those taxes were opposed by the colonies, the King would take tyrannical measures to confront the rebellion, suppressing the rights of the people even more. For instance, when the Sugar Act of 1764 was opposed by the colonists, the King enacted the Stamp Tax, in 1765. Other taxes were applied in 1767 and 1773. Those taxes were known by the colonists as <em>“Intolerable Acts”</em> and they struck not only the economic freedom of the colonies, but also their political rights, especially the civil rights of the colony of Massachusetts.
