1 answer:

6 0

The Assyrians were war-like civilization, but they were disadvantaged technologically, scientifically, and politically compared to the neighboring civilizations, like the likes of the Babylonians, Egyptians, Phoenicians. So in order to progress and become stronger, and thus to manage to enlarge their empire and become a power house in the region, their leaders started to borrow and learn from the neighboring civilizations, and little by little they reformed the Assyrian society and way of functioning. This contributed to the Assyrian civilization to become very strong, and they managed with their military campaigns to gain much more territory and wealth which made them what they wanted, a power house in the world they knew.

In late summer of 1781, Washington’s troops trapped Cornwallis’s army at _____.

Setler [38]

I would not say, "late summer", because Siege of Yorktown initial movements started on September 28th and British troops surrender led by Lieutenant General Charles Cornwallis happened on October 19, 1781, at Yorktown, Virginia. Franco-American commanders were General George Washington and Jean-Baptiste Donatien de Vimeur, Comte de Rochambeau. Siege of Yorktown was the last major land battle of the American Revolutionary War, as the surrender by Cornwallis, and the capture of his army, prompted the British government to negotiate an end to the conflict. After the British surrender, Washington sent Tench Tilghman to report the victory to Congress. The Treaty of Paris was signed on September 3, 1783, formally ending the war.
