What were the direct causes of the American Revolution? no
Goshia [24]

Answer:

The 7 year war

Taxes and duties

Boston Massacre (1770)

Boston Tea Party (1773)

Intolerable Acts (1774)

King George III’s Speech to Parliament (1775)

Explanation:

The Seven Years War was a multinational conflict, the main belligerents were the British and French Empires. Each looking to expand their territory across numerous continents, both nations suffered mass casualties and racked up copious amounts of debt in order to fund the long and ardous struggle for territorial dominance which led to economic hardship in the US and an acknowledgment of the cultural differences between colonists and Britons. making it one of the key roles that led to the war

Taxes and Duties

The taxes and duties caused outrage in the colonies and became the main root of spontaneous and violent opposition. Encouraged and rallied by propaganda leaflets and posters, such as those created by Paul Revere, colonists rioted and organised merchant boycotts. Eventually, the colonial response was met with fierce repression

Boston Massacre (1770)

The Boston Massacre is often represented as the inevitable start of a revolution, but in fact it initially prompted Lord North’s government to withdraw the Townshend Acts and for a time it seemed like the worst of the crisis was over. However, radicals such as Samuel Adams and Thomas Jefferson kept the resentment ticking over.

Boston Tea Party (1773)

it was in December 1773 that the most famous and overt display of anger and resistance took place. A group of colonists led by Adams hopped aboard the East India Company trade vessel Dartmouth and poured 342 chests of tea (worth close to $2,000,000 in today’s currency) of British tea into the sea at Boston Harbour. This act – now known as the ‘Boston Tea Party’, remains important in patriotic American folklore.

Intolerable Acts (1774)

Rather than attempting to appease the rebels, the Boston Tea Party was met with the passing of the Intolerable Acts in 1774 by the British Crown. These punitive measures included the forced closure of Boston port and an order of compensation to the East India Company for damaged property. Town meetings were now also banned, and the authority of the royal governor was increased.

The British lost further support and patriots formed the First Continental Congress in the same year, a body where men from all the colonies were formally represented. In Britain, opinion was divided as the Whigs favoured reform while North’s Tories wanted to demonstrate the power of the British Parliament. It would be the Tories who got their way.

In the meantime, the First Continental Congress raised a militia, and in April 1775 the first shots of the war were fired as British troops clashed with militia men at the twin battles of Lexington and Concord. British reinforcements landed in Massachusetts and defeated the rebels at Bunker Hill in June – the first major battle of the American War of Independence.

King George III’s Speech to Parliament (1775)

On 26 October 1775 George III, King of Great Britain, stood up in front of his Parliament and declared the American colonies to be in a state of rebellion. Here, for the first time, the use of force was authorised against the rebels. The King’s speech was long but certain phrases made it clear that a major war against his own subjects was about to commence:

<em>“It is now become the part of wisdom, and (in its effects) of clemency, to put a speedy end to these disorders by the most decisive exertions. For this purpose, I have increased my naval establishment, and greatly augmented my land forces, but in such a manner as may be the least burthensome to my kingdoms.”</em>

After such a speech, the Whig position was silenced and a full-scale war was inevitable. From it the United States of America would emerge, and the course of history radically changed<em>.</em>

7nadin3 [17]

The New Frontier & Great Society were extremely successful in building up the US's infrastructure, scientific technology, and other aspects of the U.S. Each program has been able to benefit the U.S. public one way or another.

<u>Great Society Program</u>:

The GSP was extremely successful in conserving nature, building up the U.S's infrastructures, providing national healthcare & benefits, and pouring resources into the U.S. education system. Examples of these benefits can be found in the programs passed, including the Medicaid (1965), which provided  healthcare benefits to lower income families. Medicaid (& later Medicare), is still being used up until recently, and bits and parts are still used in today's world. Allowing for cheaper and beneficial medicare for the average allows for the freeing up of funds to be spent somewhere else. Another act that was aimed more towards building up the lower-income bracket families is the Higher-Education Act (1965), which allowed for scholarships and loans to lower-income households to be able to send their children (or to go to college themselves). The aim for this act is that with higher education & a degree, citizens of the U.S. is able to get/fill in higher-paying jobs, which in turn raise the U.S. GDP Index as a whole. Finally, Project Head-Start (1965), was aimed at helping the US GDP grow from an early age. Remember, higher educational level usually led to degrees, which in turn led to more people being able to fill in higher-paying jobs, which would in turn affect the GDP as a whole for the better.

All of these are aimed to help improve the internal conditions of the U.S. as a whole.

<u>New Frontier:</u>

The New Frontier was created by the Kennedy Administration, and was aimed at building up internal conditions & foreign relations. For example, the Peace Corps (1961), was created to send US citizens abroad to help under-developed countries (3rd world countries) to transition for the better. It was also a more peaceful way to bring countries into the U.S. sphere of influence & under democracy. With the creation of the Peace Corps, however, Kennedy saw the need to increase spending on the military, augumenting the funding of the military to allow for research for new military hardware and implementation funding for such. Like Johnson after him, he worked to help improve the U.S.'s economy, and created bills that helped the poor & less-fortunate people. He also created N.A.S.A, which led in the US in Space Exploration, discovering not only new information about the world outside, but also landing the first man on the moon. Later on the ISS was created, which brought the world together to explore the universe together.

Unlike the GSP, the NF was created to help improve external relations with other countries, in hopes of, at first, staving off the spread of communism, and later on, to open up the U.S. for cordial relations with Communist nations.

Both were fairly, if not, really successful in meeting the objectives that they have set. However, that is not to say that there may not be more improvements, but as for what they knew, and the conditions they lived in during that time, I believe that they did their best to make the world not only a better place to live in, but also worked to help expand our knowledge of the world and her surroundings.

How was Stonewall Jackson's army able to surprise the Union army at Chancellorsville?
Natali [406]

Answer:

The correct answers are B, C and D. Stonewall Jackson's army marched secretly to a spot on the side of the Union Army and then they attacked, while the Union forces were not expecting this.

Explanation:

The Battle of Chancellorsville was a major victory for Confederate troops over the Union Army and is one of the jewels of military strategy.   Jackson and Lee masterfully used bluffing and covert shifts to deceive the enemy, and at one point they reached for the opportunity to encircle and completely destroy General H0oker's army.

During this battle, H0oker took a position north of Chancellorsville, leaving his left wing unprotected. Noticing that, Lee attacked with 20,000 people against Ho0ker's left wing, and sent Jackson to H0oker's right wing with 25,000 people. On May 2, Jackson attacked and pushed H0oker's right wing. The next day, H0oker took his forces to better positions. On the same day, General Sedgwick repulsed Lee's weak forces near Fredricksburg, but reinforcements that arrived on May 4 forced Sedgwick to withdraw. On May 6, Lee ordered a general attack. H0oker saw that the battle was lost and retreated to the left bank of the Repehenek.

Only the death of Stonewall Jackson after his men mistaken him for an enemy in the night fight saved the Union from destruction. As a result, the Confederacy's victory was not nearly as complete as it should have been.

However, the Union army escaped, and the death of Jackson, considered the Confederate's best field tactician and General Lee's irreplaceable right hand, was a catastrophe from which Southern troops never fully recovered.
