Answer:

The politics of the period inevitably drove France towards war with Austria and its allies. The King, many of the Feuillants, and the Girondins specifically wanted to wage war.

- The King was hoping war would increase his personal popularity and make him stronger.

- The Girondins wanted to export the Revolution throughout Europe and, by extension, to defend the Revolution within France.

- Other Monarchs from Prussia, Austria were threatening of invading France on the behalf of the French Monarchy. Moreover, the king was unhappy to sharing power and not wanting to accept the limitation on his power as result he agitating with the foreign monarchs

- People like Barnave and Robespierre in France opposed the war, and in Austria the emperor Leopold II, brother of Marie Antoinette, may have wished to avoid war, but unfortunately he died on 1 March 1792.

Thus France under this circumstance it preemptively declared war on Austria (20 April 1792). Prussia joined the Austrian side a few weeks later. And the wars that will catapult Napoleon into notoriety was on.

Which statement best describes the reaction of American patriots toward British colonial policy following the French and Indian

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

A. They rejected Parliament’s right to manage their internal affairs.

Explanation:

Following the French and Indian War, Great Britain decided to put taxes on the colonists. One of these tax laws was called the Stamp Act, which put taxes on printed items.

The colonists were not happy with these taxes and thought they were unfair, as they had nobody in the British Parliament to vouch for them, also known as "taxation without representation." Great Britain said they were actually taxing them fairly, as they needed to pay the debts for the French and Indian War and were providing the colonists with troops to protect them.

This caused tensions to rise between the colonists and Great Britain. The British colonial policies made the colonists start to want independence from Great Britain, as they felt everything they were doing was unfair. They rejected the British Parliament's right to manage their internal affairs and essentially wanted to be left alone.
