B. To escape a potato famine.

The potato famine in Ireland caused many to face starvation of if they could afford it leave the country and go to the United States.

The potato famine, referred to as the Great Famine in Ireland, caused potato destruction from 1845-1849. A disease attacked the potatoes causing the potatoes to die and create no crop. Farmers relied on the production of potatoes to survive both from sale and to eat. Many Irish starved to death or struggled to survive on very little. Those that could afford to leave, did so. Many Irish arrived in the US to find jobs in cities or begin farming new lands opening in the Midwest.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

These are the options for the question:

A) Effective Military Leadership

B) Intervention from Britain and France

C) The fighting skill of Southern males

D) Its ability to fight on its own soil

E) Its belief that it was defending its way of life

And the correct answer is:

B) Intervention from Britain and France

Explanation:

The Confederacy was an important supplier of cotton to Europe, including Britain and France. The Confederate leadership believed that Britain and France would eventually intervene in their favour once the cotton supply went down because of the war.

Unfortunately for the Confederacy, this never happenned because Europe got the cotton it needed from other countries such as Egypt and India. Besides, the fact that the Confederacy supported slavery also prevented France and Britain from supporting them, because in both countries, slavery was unpopular.
