 Declaration was passed on July 2 with no opposing votes. A committee of five had drafted it to be ready when Congress voted on independence. John Adams, a leader in pushing for independence, had persuaded the committee to select Thomas Jefferson to compose the original draft of the document,[2]which Congress edited to produce the final version. The Declaration was a formal explanation of why Congress had voted on July 2 to declare independence from Great Britain, more than a year after the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War. Adams wrote to his wife Abigail, "The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America"[3] – although Independence Day is actually celebrated on July 4, the date that the wording of the Declaration of Independence was approved.

After ratifying the text on July 4, Congress issued the Declaration of Independence in several forms. It was initially published as the printed Dunlap broadside that was widely distributed and read to the public. The source copy used for this printing has been lost and may have been a copy in Thomas Jefferson's hand.[4] Jefferson's original draft is preserved at the Library of Congress, complete with changes made by John Adams and Benjamin Franklin, as well as Jefferson's notes of changes made by Congress

How did the British victory in the French and Indian War lead to the American Revolution?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

<h2>d. British debt after the French and Indian War led to increased taxation in the colonies.</h2>

Explanation:

The Seven Years War was fought in Europe from 1756-63.  That conflict as it extended to colonial territories in the New World was known as the French and Indian War.  The war had cost the British treasury 70 million pounds, which doubled their national debt.  The British felt they were entitled to tax the colonies for military protection against Indian tribes.

We might also note that France's loss in that war played a role in the American Revolution too.  Losing the conflict in North America to the British didn’t sit well with France. So, when the colonial Americans broke out in revolution against the British monarchy (in large measure about the taxation issue), France devoted enormous financial aid (as well as officer support) to the Americans. The cost to France for supporting America’s revolution added up to 1 billion livres  (about 4 billion in today’s dollars).

What was the significance of the Battle of Stalingrad? (5 points)
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The battle of Stalingrad prevented Germany from successfully gaining control of Moscow.

Explanation:

Germany's failure to capture Stalingrad ultimately led to Germany's failure to capture Moscow and defeat the Soviet Union. Capturing Stalingrad would've given Germany access to the USSR's oil supply, giving the Germans the upper hand against fighting the Russians. They weren't able to successfully capture and had to back off from the offensive.

<em>Good luck, i hope this helps :)</em>
