The best known of the engravings depicting the Boston Massacre was made by Paul Revere in 1770, but several other versions appeared in Massachusetts and London over the next two years. Each of these images was made to express outrage at the actions of the British troops and to solicit support for the Patriot cause. The images of the confrontation between the soldiers and the townspeople are significant and compelling, but are historically inaccurate.

<em></em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The idea behind having a Constitution is that it limits the powers of the government and sets certain law and rules that are to be followed while governing. Hence when there were debates for the "ratification" of the Constitution, the Federalists concluded that the Constitution didn’t require any list of rights, as the Constitution itself limits the powers of the government. Moreover, Bill of Rights was unnecessary as the Constitution was drafted with a strong concept of "Separation of Powers", and the Check and Balance system. Under this the government has been divided into three categories and these three categories check and limit the powers of each other.
Some thought war was too drastic. They thought "wait a second, let's not do something crazy here. Let's just try to work with Britain to get our rights back, instead of overthrowing the whole thing and establishing our own thing. That's just too much." Some thought that we would lose the revolution (which, in all honesty, they had good reason to think that) and didn't want to upset Britain.
The answer is A because if you know who Robert Fulton is, then you know that his steamboat is called Clermont, which makes it the answer.

- both the Soviet and East German governments still continued to achieve the goal of a united, Germany under communist control.
- there was also a significant increase in academic and cultural contacts with the West.
