Answer:

<u>He had military experience during the French and Indian War and was known to be a man of character. </u>

Explanation:

In 1753, France itself began expanding military control in Ohio, as well as in the British colonies of Virginia and Pennsylvania. This led to the outbreak of conflict in the colonies called the French and Indian War. Washington was involved in the war from the beginning.

In 1755, Washington became an assistant to British General Edward Braddock. Braddock was supposed to expel the French from Ohio with the strength of the British Army. In 1755 Washington was named as the commander of all Virginia troops with the task of defending the western border.

He did not participate in military life until the outbreak of the Revolution of 1775. Washington had a reputation, military experience, charisma and influence, and was known as a great patriot .

It was composed of regions from Colorado, Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Kansas. And it happened because of the overexploitation of the environment. The farmers changed the ecosystem by transforming the majority of the land in the zone into agricultural land. Also, they killed the animals in the zone. Including buffalos, which they hunted until they were seen in small groups. Even though these animals helped the ecosystem to be balanced.

What was the biggest effect on the Columbia exchange on Europe
Roman55 [17]

The Columbian exchange of crops affected both the Old World and the New. Amerindian crops that have crossed oceans—for example, maize to China and the white potato to Ireland—have been stimulants to population growth in the Old World. The latter’s crops and livestock have had much the same effect in the Americas—for example, wheat in Kansas and the Pampa, and beef cattle in Texas and Brazil. The full story of the exchange is many volumes long, so for the sake of brevity and clarity let us focus on a specific region, the eastern third of the United States of America.
