Describe trade relations between Britain and the united states following the war.
coldgirl [10]
The Louisiana territory was purchased by the United States in 1803. This purchase was made not only to avoid war with France and prevent an alliance with England, but also to double Mississippi river and the port of New Orleans. Both of these additions were critical to the development of the country as well as the development of the country west of the Mississippi River.
<span>War between France and England in 1803 caused impressments and by 1805 both countries tired to prevent American trade and escalated to possible war. The USS Chesapeake was stopped outside US waters in 1807 and several Americans were killed, injured, and imprisoned. Resulted in Embargo act 1807 when US couldn’t trade with foreigners. Embargo Act was lifted because of what it did to American economy. The Non- Intercourse act of 1809 was put in its place. This opened trade to all countries except Great Britain and France. Macon’s Bill #2 allowed for the US to open trade with France after it promised to respect our trade rights. </span>

Which of the following is the best reason that the demand for manual labor increased in Colonial America?
ruslelena [56]

The best reasons why the demand for manual labor was increased was because  Indentured servants finished their contracts.

<h3>What is meant by indentured servitude?</h3>

This was the type of serving that happened back then. This was the period that a person would require another person to serve him and do work for him. In repayment, he is going to be responsible for the persons maintenance in that period of time.

This was different from slavery because there was no pay in slavery. Hence  The best reasons why the demand for manual labor was increased was because  Indentured servants finished their contracts.

The difference that it had with slavery was that it was a great form of debt bondage. The people had to serve masters for helping to bring them to America. While they served the master, he would be the one that would give them shelter, food as well as clothe them.
