The Continental Army was established by a resolution of the Continental Congress. The Continental Army under the command of George Washington was created to coordinate the military efforts of the 13 colonies in the rebellion against British rule.The soldiers had no formal military experience, no uniforms, no established commanders and there were limited firearms. The Continental Army were obvious underdogs. However, The Continental Army did have some advantages over the British Army: their soldiers knew the terrain and could make use of this knowledge using defensive tactics. Also they had great leaders.
Answer:
Britain had an elite society that welcomed industrialization while Russia did not.
Explanation:
British elites were open to the idea of investing into railways and factories. Politically, the British also had a parliament that allowed some form of representation in the government. There was also no more serfdom at the time of industrialization in the early 1800s. On the other hand, Russian elites were very opposed to investing or industrialization as this could threaten their wealth that they already accumulated. Serfdom was still legal in Russia until March 3 1861 when Alexander II abolished it, which meant that many peasants were tied to the land and could not migrate to urban areas. Furthermore, Russia was fully autocratic unlike Britian and only saw the implementation of a parliament in 1905. All of this meant that Britain's industrialization was very quick and significantly earlier than Russia's.
