Decisions that were made by Second Continental Congress included:

  1. Elect George Washington as Commander in Chief
  2. Send the Olive Branch petition to King George
  3. Form Continental army

Explanation:

  • The Congress, attended by representatives from each colony, was held just three weeks after the first shots were fired at the War of Independence, in Concord and Lexington, Massachusetts.
  • Congress assumed many governmental duties and united the colonies to fight Britain.
  • Congress soon assumed responsibility for the formation of the Continental Army, headed by George Washington of Virginia as its commander-in-chief.
  • Members of Congress decided last time to try to solve the problem peacefully: they sent the King an "Olive Branch Petition". When that petition was rejected and the Prohibitory Act arrived in response to the British government, the last reasons for loyalty to the British crown disappeared.

Class: History

Level: Middle school

Keywords: Continental Army, George Washington, Congress, Olive Branch petition.

President Reagan’s speech at the Brandenburg gate commonlit
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: here you go:

Explanation:

We come to Berlin, we American Presidents, because it's our duty to speak, in this place, of freedom. But I must confess, we're drawn here by other things as well: by the feeling of history in this city, more than 500 years older than our own nation; by the beauty of the Grunewald and the Tiergarten; most of all, by your courage and determination. Perhaps the composer, Paul Lincke, understood something about American Presidents. You see, like so many Presidents before me, I come here today because wherever I go, whatever I do: "Ich hab noch einen koffer in Berlin." [I still have a suitcase in Berlin.]

Our gathering today is being broadcast throughout Western Europe and North America. I understand that it is being seen and heard as well in the East. To those listening throughout Eastern Europe, I extend my warmest greetings and the good will of the American people. To those listening in East Berlin, a special word: Although I cannot be with you, I address my remarks to you just as surely as to those standing here before me. For I join you, as I join your fellow countrymen in the West, in this firm, this unalterable belief: Es gibt nur ein Berlin. [There is only one Berlin.]

...

And now the Soviets themselves may, in a limited way, be coming to understand the importance of freedom. We hear much from Moscow about a new policy of reform and openness. Some political prisoners have been released. Certain foreign news broadcasts are no longer being jammed. Some economic enterprises have been permitted to operate with greater freedom from state control. Are these the beginnings of profound changes in the Soviet state? Or are they token gestures, intended to raise false hopes in the West, or to strengthen the Soviet system without changing it? We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace.

There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization: Come here to this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!

...

As I looked out a moment ago from the Reichstag, that embodiment of German unity, I noticed words crudely spray-painted upon the wall, perhaps by a young Berliner, "This wall will fall. Beliefs become reality." Yes, across Europe, this wall will fall. For it cannot withstand faith; it cannot withstand truth. The wall cannot withstand freedom.

What effect did the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy have on LGBTQ troops?
Tpy6a [65]

The effect of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy allows L G B T Q troops to forced them to hide their s e. x- u al identity or face military prison.

<h3>What is the Don't Ask, Don't Tell Policy?</h3>

"Don't ask, don't tell" (DADT) is an official US policy on L G B T Q military service that was implemented under the Clinton administration.

The policy forbade military employees from discriminating against openly L G B T Q service members or candidates, but publicly these people were barred from military service.

People who show a proclivity or desire to participate in h0m0 s. e-x ual acts were barred from having to serve in the U.s. Armed forces because their existence would pose an enormous risk to the good standard of self-esteem, military discipline, and combat readiness that are the essential part of military capability.
