History

Answer:

The two farming groups that helped push reform and helped to form the Populist Party were the Farmer's Alliance and the Grange.

Explanation:

The Populist Party was formed from a movement that emerged in the 1870s, especially among the peasants of the western and southern states, which was characterized by demands for social radical legislation against the trusts and for the benefit of the smaller farmers, and that was represented by the Farmer’s Alliance and the Grange.  It demanded the free coinage of silver, 8 hours workday, progressive income tax, land reform, and the nationalization of railways, telegraphs and telephone lines.

At the 1892 presidential election, the party gathered over one million votes and got 22 presidential electors. It co-operated in the 1896 and 1900 presidential elections with the Democrats with William Jennings Bryan as joint candidate.

Which of the following are TRUE?
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

1.- True

2.- False

3.- True

4.- False

5.- False

Explanation:

1. The Quebec Act of 1774 was a Great Britain's Parliament's act which set  governance guidelines for  Quebec Province.

The province's territory was expanded to take over part of the Indian Reserve, including much of what is now southern Ontario, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, and parts of Minnesota.

After the 7 Years' War, Great Britain defeated France, and a s aconsequence, Peace was formally signed on the 1763 Treaty of Paris. According to this treaty, the Kingdom of France ceded New France to Britain, keeping instead the islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique due to  their important production of sugar.

2. The British Army went out of Boston to capture leaders Samuel Adams and John Hancock in Lexington, they were also looking for destroying American Army's weapon store and ammunition in Concord. The colonists were warned however, by riders including Paul Revere, that the British Army was approaching.

3. The most important points he argued for, were:  (1) independence from England and (2) the creation of a democratic republic.

4.   English Parliament’s decisions towards the colonists were taken as aggresions, giving rise to a more and more distant ideology between the colonist’s political, economic, and social ideas and those of the British. Colonists had developed a solid, new identity that helped foster resistance against Britain. However, Americans were not totally unified;  disorganization and uncertainty ruled. There existed some organizations which intended to influence as unification factors for the colonists, e.g. the Continental Congress, but rather than solid political groups they worked more as discussion forums, this meant their work took longer before agreeing or making drastic decisions. Furthermore, American resistance also had a conflict of interests. Many colonists were still in favor of the Crown and did not want to break away from Great Britain, and eve some of them refused to support the revolution, because they felt that a break with Britain would mean economic chaos - which probably was not far from reality.

5. Much of the colonial forces retreatment from the peninsula was possible due to the controlled withdrawn of the forces led by John Stark and Thomas Knowlton, which prevented the encirclement of the hill.  General Putnam tried to gather the troops once more on Bunker Hill, but colonial drawdown was so quick that artillery pieces and entrenching tools were left behind. The colonists suffered most of their casualties during the retreat on Bunker Hill. By 5 p.m., the colonists had already left to fortified positions, and the British were in control of the peninsula.

Which answers best summarizes the main benefit of slavery to the colonies
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The main benefit of slavery to the colonies was that the man power was completely free of cost. They did not had to invest in them. The slaves were not compensated for their labor work.  

Explanation:

The main reason why colonies were built was to take over the land and their people. White people would buy slaves for a lifetime. They would treat them brutally. They did not care about their feelings. They were owned as their personal belonging.

Free labor meant whatever the revenue was being generated by the slaves, all went to the white mans' pocket. There was no retribution.
