The primary reason colonists demanded independence was
Softa [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson is considered the primary author of the Declaration of Independence, although Jefferson's draft went through a process of revision by his fellow committee members and the Second Continental Congress.

How the Declaration Came About

Map of the British Colonies in North America in 1763Map of the British Colonies in North America in 1763

America's declaration of independence from the British Empire was the nation's founding moment.  But it was not inevitable.  Until the spring of 1776, most colonists believed that the British Empire offered its citizens freedom and provided them protection and opportunity.  The mother country purchased colonists' goods, defended them from Native American Indian and European aggressors, and extended British rights and liberty to colonists.  In return, colonists traded primarily with Britain, obeyed British laws and customs, and pledged their loyalty to the British crown.  For most of the eighteenth century, the relationship between Britain and her American colonies was mutually beneficial.  Even as late as June 1775, Thomas Jefferson said that he would "rather be in dependence on Great Britain, properly limited, than on any nation upon earth, or than on no nation."[1]

But this favorable relationship began to face serious challenges in the wake of the Seven Years' War.  In that conflict with France, Britain incurred an enormous debt and looked to its American colonies to help pay for the war.  Between 1756 and 1776, Parliament issued a series of taxes on the colonies, including the Stamp Act of 1765, the Townshend Duties of 1766, and the Tea Act of 1773.  Even when the taxes were relatively light, they met with stiff colonial resistance on principle, with colonists concerned that “taxation without representation” was tyranny and political control of the colonies was increasingly being exercised from London.  Colonists felt that they were being treated as second-class citizens.  But after initially compromising on the Stamp Act, Parliament supported increasingly oppressive measures to force colonists to obey the new laws.  Eventually, tensions culminated in the shots fired between British troops and colonial militia at Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

B. maintain the cities

Explanation:

The numerical religion defended the existence of a group of divine beings that governed the entire universe, looked like human beings, but were gods and lived in the pantheon. These beings were immortal and created human beings, who, although mortal, had as their main function to be responsible for the maintenance and organization of cities, where the gods could transit and do their works, even if invisible to human beings.

What events took place before the holocaust?
sveta [45]

Brief answer:  Persecution of Jews under the Nuremberg Laws, as well as attacks on Jews and imprisoning Jews in concentration camps.

<u>Longer explanation:</u>

Hitler and the Nazis believed in the supremacy of what they referred to as the "Aryan race" -- which was a term they used for the Germanic peoples.  They believed their race was superior to "lesser races" like the Jews, blacks and others.  Hitler and the Nazis mounted a campaign in Germany to promote their race over others like Jews and Roma (gypsies), etc.  

They enacted what are called the Nuremberg Laws, which were passed at a Nazi rally in Nuremberg in 1935.  These laws denied citizenship and other rights to Jewish persons.  

In November, 1938, there was rampant destruction of Jewish-owned businesses and synagogues and violence against Jewish people.  This occurred on the night of November 9 going on into November 10, 1938, and was called "Kristallnacht," or "The Night of Broken Glass."  Nazi officials told police and firefighters to do nothing -- to let the violence and destruction occur.  In the days after Kristallnacht, the Nazi government said that the Jewish community itself was responsible for all the damage and destruction, and imposed enormous fines against the Jewish community. They also arrested more than 30,000 Jewish men and sent them to concentration camps which were built to incarcerate Jews and any others that the Nazis perceived to be enemies of the German state.

In their campaign for a "master race" as well as in support of their World War effort, the Nazis used Jews for forced labor in concentration camps.  They also used Jewish persons and others they deemed undesirable essentially as laboratory rats for doing unethical medical experiments on them. For example, they'd put persons in a pressure chamber to find out how high an altitude they could let their pilots fly before they'd become unconscious from the altitude and pressure.  Others of their experiments were even more gruesome.  

Ultimately, there was what the Nazis called "The Final Solution" (in the 1940s), which we now refer to as the Holocaust.  Millions of Jews, along with other unwanteds, were exterminated in mass killings.
