Britain needed the battleships to convoy goods across the Atlantic. They weren't just "given" to Britain at all, but transferred in exchange for use of British bases.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt gave Great Britain fifty battleships in the destroyers-for-bases deal. In the destroyers-for-bases deal, the United States gave Britain fifty aging destroyers and received in exchange ninety-nine years leases on eight British bases in the Western Hemisphere. This was a request by Winston Churchill to be able to defend the English Channel against feared German invasion.

Generally what was life like for the native americans of north american in 1492
Alexxx [7]
Most Indians concentrated on the important things in life: getting food, making clothes and building houses.
FOOD
Buffalo - Food of Native AmericansIndians ate many different kinds of food. Those who lived on the plains of the Central United States ate the meat of buffalo. The Pueblos of the south-western part lived on corn, beans and squash. Indians in Alaska and Canada were fishers and hunted deer and other wild animals in the forests. Most Indians ate berries and collected nuts.
Indians cooked their food in ovens that they made with hot stones. They preserved meat by smoking or drying it in the sun.
MARRIAGE AND CHILDREN
Many Indians married at an early age – girls between 13 and 15, boys between 15 and 20. In some Indian tribes parents chose husbands and wives for their children. Some Indian tribes allowed men to have more than one wife. After a man died his wife often lived with his brother’s family.
Most Indian families were small because many children died at birth or at an early age. When boys got older they were tested for their strength and bravery. Many had to live alone in the wilderness for a long time.
In many areas, Indians lived in big families called clans. These clans were a group of relatives who had one common ancestor.
CLOTHING
Many Indians made clothes from animal skins and furs. Buffalo skin and rabbit fur were especially popular. They also used bird feathers to decorate their heads. Indians of the tropical regions only wore simple skirts. Some tribes wore no clothes at all

vampirchik [111]

<u>Difference between geographic expansion in New England and in the Chesapeake region:</u>

<u>New England:</u>

  • New Englanders as a result of rough soil had constrained cultivating so they needed to go to timber, hide, and angling.  
  • Homesteaders in the New England settlements suffered harshly cool winters and mellow summers.  
  • The land was level near the coastline yet turned out to be bumpy and rugged more remote inland.  
  • The dirt was commonly rough, making cultivating troublesome.  

<u> Chesapeake region:</u>

  • The Chesapeake district was, be that as it may, extremely wealthy in soil, and cultivating turned into the primary concern.
  • Tobacco, indigo, and rice were the central yields.  
  • Religion in the Chesapeake district was not in any manner normal, with the exception of in a couple of zones.  
  • The reaction expresses that pioneers in the Chesapeake were increasingly "socialized" with the Indians.
  • The province of Maryland was expected as an asylum for Catholics in the wake of being abused when the Catholic Church isolated from the Church of England.
