Why were the middle colonies called the breadbasket colonies?

History
1 answer:
Flura [38]3 years ago
4 0
The middle colonies were called the breadbasket colonies, because there was an abundance of arable land and fertile soil. There were also natural harbors around the middle colonies, which made it easy for them to trade with other colonies, and because of large numbers of immigrants coming from continental Europe which made the breadbasket colonies ethnically and religiously diverse, compared to the other sets of colonies.

Why was a severe downturn in oil prices during the early '80s detrimental to the Soviet economy? It was an oil-exporting nation.
Artemon [7]

Answer:

It was an oil-exporting nation.

Explanation:

During the 1980s, the Soviet Union saw a severe downturn in oil prices. This, in turn, led to a decrease in production. Between 1988 and 1995, the oil production of the nation dropped by almost 50%. During this time period, oil was one of the main exports of the Soviet Union, which meant that these fluctuations in price greatly damaged its economy. Moreover, the damage to the economy weakened the nation, allowing for the change of regime to take place.

Of the various events that led to division between the colonists and Parliament which do you think was the most significant?
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Personally, I would say the Seven Years War. It started the divide in the first place. The war itself costed Great Britain a great amount of money, and to make it up, they started taxing the colonists heavily. This first instance of taxation is what led to the divide, and the taxation started because of the war. Therefore, I believe that that is the most significant event.
