Answer:

The Irish Great famine was is the period of food scarcity that hit Ireland between 1845 and 1850. The Irish were largely dependent on the potato harvest for their food supply. Ninety percent of them, however, had failed due to the potato disease. This pest was caused by the pseudo-fungus Phytophthora infestans and caused a real havoc to the monoculture. More than a million Irish people died as a result of the food shortage. Millions of others, either forced or otherwise, fled to North America, Australia, New Zealand and Great Britain.

12. What factor "bound the American colonies to Britain in the mid-18th century?"
Greeley [361]

Answer:

C. Fear of France

Explanation:

In the 18th century, the French state had some influence over the American colonies, militarily and economically speaking, but they mainly depended on the British government. The French were trying to expand their influence throughout the colonies, their power stretching from the mouth of St Lawrence towards Canada and the Great Lakes. The French were also making claims regarding the Mississippi basin and this was a highly contended topic between the French and the British government.

The colonies feared French rule and preferred British institutions that offered much more economic freedom to individual business and did not interfere too much with individuals freedoms, such as freedom of speech.
