Answer:

staging a riot in New York City

Explanation:

Union draft of 1863 was legislation passed by the United States Congress to provide fresh manpower for the Union Army during the American Civil War.

Low-paid workers in New York responded to the Union draft of 1863 by staging a riot in New York City

In New York City, enforcement of the union draft leads to the New York City draft riots on July 13–16.

Both policies of substitution and commutation help in softening the effect of the draft on pacifists, the anti-draft movement, and the propertied classes.

Why did France fall so easily to the Nazis?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

in France there was a very strong support of extreme right (this terms is quite broad and does not include so-called nazism) already before the Great War. After 1870 French extreme right became quite powerful and had a stimulating support of intellectuals (Barres, Maurras) who were able to stimulate new generations ...a big part of intellectual elite invited Mussolini´s coup and in 30s there was a hayday of French right. When Hitler came in poweŕ, he had a strong support among French. But French extreme-right was frequently more conservative than modern (nazism).

Explanation:

Jacques Doriot (leader and founder of PPF), writer Pierre Drieu la Rochelle, Robert Brasillach or Céline had many motives to support nazism. They believed in something that could be called "revolution of the body and instinct", the criticized democracy of the IIIrd republic because of its liberalism and intellectualism. They wanted strong leader and politics of body and instinct. But they were never united. In the government there was a division between "marchalistes" (followers of Pétain) and "lavalistes" (folloowers of pro-nazi laval).

What was the Second Continental Congress created for?
Zepler [3.9K]

The questions were different this time. First and foremost, how would the colonist meet the military threat of the British. It was agreed that a CONTINENTAL ARMY would be created. The Congress commissioned George Washington of Virginia to be the supreme commander, who chose to serve without pay. How would supplies be paid for? The Congress authorized the printing of money. Before the leaves had turned, Congress had even appointed a standing committee to conduct relations with foreign governments, should the need ever arise to ask for help. No longer was the Congress dealing with mere grievances. It was a full-fledged governing body.

Still, in May of 1775 the majority of delegates were not seeking independence from Britain. Only radicals like John Adams were of this mindset. In fact, that July Congress approved the OLIVE BRANCH PETITION, a direct appeal to the king. The American delegates pleaded with George III to attempt peaceful resolution and declared their loyalty to the Crown. The King refused to receive this petition and instead declared the colonies to be in a state of rebellion in August. Insult turned to injury when George ordered the hiring of HESSIAN mercenaries to bring the colonists under control. Americans now felt less and less like their English brethren. How could their fellow citizens order a band of ruthless, foreign goons? The moderate voice in the Continental Congress was dealt a serious blow.

<span>As the seasons changed and hostilities continued, cries for independence grew stronger. The men in Philadelphia were now wanted for treason. They continued to govern and hope against hope that all would end well. For them, the summer of 1776 brought the point of no return — a formal declaration of independence.</span>
