What are 4 reasons why the colonist should form a independent and free nation without Great Britain?

History
1 answer:
vodomira [7]3 years ago
8 0

The main reason why the colonists wanted to break away from Great Britain was "taxation without representation." Great Britain were taxing the colonists, through things like the Stamp Act, and the colonists felt like this was unfair. They did not get a say in what they were being taxed on and how much it was. They had no representation in British Parliament and had no way to make these decisions, so they felt it was unfair to be taxed. This made the colonists end up boycotting the products that were being taxed, leaving Great Britain with not as much money to pay war debts. Another reason was Great Britain sometimes made large armies stay with the colonists, who were normally armed. Great Britain then made the colonists provide housing for them, along with cooking, and even paying for them.

What does the passage suggest about how colonial women viewed political events?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Colonial women did not care about political events.

Explanation:

During the colonial era our society was shaped by strong patriarchal and misogynistic views, as such women were not included in any political matters. An ideal was constructed that all important decisions and events were to be left to the men and women completed all of the domestic tasks. The women did not really care about political events because it was not their job to. They were told by everyone around them that it was not of their concern and it had nothing to do with them and they went along with this thinking. Mainly women were controlled by the men in their lives, their fathers, their husbands, or even their sons, so if they told them it didn't affect their lives why would they give it a second thought? Of course, there were some women who cared about political events, but generally speaking they did not. This whole idea is very clearly taken from the passage as they spoke of the matter of voting rights. For a country based on democracy to not give women the right to vote, it is basically saying they are not citizens, which technically in many places they weren't. Political events played no role in their lives, thus women did not care about them.

What are 3 interesting “fun” facts about the Space Race?
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

1. On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union became the country that officially started the so-called space race by launching the Sputnik 1, the first Earth satellite in history.

2. A month after the USSR sent Sputnik 1 into space, they sent Sputnik 2, which was the first spacecraft to carry an animal (a dog named Laika) and so the country made history again by becoming the first to successfully send a living organism into orbit.

3.However, something that many people don’t know about this dog is that despite the Soviets initially claiming that Laika had survived in orbit for a week, decades later official Russian sources revealed that Laika lived only a few hours before dying from overheating.

What influence is apparent in the lifelike verism of roman republican portraits?
Alina [70]

Egyptian influence is apparent in the lifelike verism of roman republican portraits.

Egyptian priests and cults are thought to have come into touch with Italy and Greece before Republican portraits were created, and they are thought to have had a significant influence on the Romans in creating the veristic style.

Verism can be described as a type of hyperrealistic sculpture in which the subject's inherent qualities are amplified, frequently to the point of ridiculousness.

Verism can be seen as a kind of dry realism that depicts the subject as they actually are—wrinkles, warts, and other bodily flaws—and, more importantly, with an expression that is not that of a philosopher, poet, or visionary.
