D. Rely on naval forces more than the army to attack the British.
Answer: Britain had become the major power in Europe and the rest of the world
Explanation:
Still smarting from its defeat in the Seven Years’ War and loss of colonies worldwide, including much of Canada, France saw America’s rebellion as an opportunity for revenge—and to re-establish part of its own empire at British expense. The wily Comte de Vergennes, France’s foreign minister, urged Louis XVI to support the Americans, arguing that “providence had marked out this moment for the humiliation of England.”
French participation transformed what might otherwise have been a lopsided colonial rebellion into a significant war, with potential to become another global conflict. The British, it turned out, had little appetite for this—especially when other European powers such as Spain and the Dutch Republic proved willing to support the colonists. The geopolitical calculus made it difficult for British legislators to accept the prospect of a prolonged, costly and global battle.
Since you haven't given the choices in your assigned question, the best I can do here is offer you a list of some of the key events that DID occur during the years of William Howard Taft's presidency.
Robert Peary led an expedition that was the first to reach the North Pole (in April, 1909).
Nellie Taft (the president's wife) suffered a stroke in May, 1909. She recovered but it took many months.
In July, 1909, Congress passed the proposal for the 16th Amendment and submitted it to state legislatures for ratification. The amendment allowed Congress to collect income taxes. Ratification was complete by 1913, while Taft was still in office.
In May, 1911, the Supreme Court ordered the dissolution of the Standard Oil Company for violating the Sherman Antitrust Act. The company was required to split into smaller corporations. The American Tobacco Company was similarly ordered to dissolve for antitrust violations later in that same month.
In January, 1912, New Mexico became the 47th state of the United States, and in February, 1912, Arizona became the 48th state.
The famous sinking of the Titanic occurred in April, 1912.
There were other events that could be mentioned, but that gives you some ideas of the history of the time.
