History
1 answer:
yKpoI14uk [10]3 years ago
4 0
The conditions were usually of natural causes. For example, since homesteaders relied on self-sufficiency and were mostly agricultural throughout history, a homesteader might suffer immeasurably if a drought hit and destroyed all their crops since it was their only source of income. Sometimes however in the United States they could also get raided by bandits or Native Americans since they would be usually settling in new areas towards the western frontier.

They relied on some technological advancements to survive. For example, they used barbed wires and weaponry to fend off unwanted animals or people who would try to harm them. They would also use things like the steel plow to help ensure that their land was better suited for crops. Some also relied on windmills both for power and for things like grinding grains.<span />

How did the colonists feel about the American Revolution while it was going on?

Answers :

Until the end of the Seven Years' War in 1763, few colonists in British North America objected to their place in the British Empire. Colonists in British America reaped many benefits from the British imperial system and bore few costs for those benefits. Indeed, until the early 1760s, the British mostly left their American colonies alone. The Seven Years' War (known in America as the French and Indian War) changed everything. Although Britain eventually achieved victory over France and its allies, victory had come at great cost. A staggering war debt influenced many British policies over the next decade. Attempts to raise money by reforming colonial administration, enforcing tax laws, and placing troops in America led directly to conflict with colonists. By the mid-1770s, relations between Americans and the British administration had become strained and acrimonious.

Explanation:

There were several key factors contributing to the Colonists' victory over the British, such as war tactics, strong leadership and one solid alliance. Despite facing larger forces, better trained armies, and more weapons, the Colonists managed to win.

The American Revolution was a colonial revolt which occurred between 1765 and 1783. The American Patriots in the Thirteen Colonies defeated the British in the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783) with the assistance of France, winning independence from Great Britain and establishing the United States of America

The American colonials proclaimed "no taxation without representation" starting with the Stamp Act Congress in 1765. They had no representatives in the British Parliament and so rejected Parliament's authority to tax them. Protests steadily escalated to the Boston Massacre in 1770 and the burning of the Gaspee in Rhode Island in 1772, followed by the Boston Tea Party in December 1773. The British responded by closing Boston Harbor and enacting a series of punitive laws which effectively rescinded Massachusetts Bay Colony's rights of self-government. The other colonies rallied behind Massachusetts, and a group of American Patriot leaders set up their own government in late 1774 at the Continental Congress to coordinate their resistance of Britain; other colonists retained their allegiance to the Crown and were known as Loyalists or Tories.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Actually yes it could have.

Explanation:

The only compromise that could have headed off war by then was for the Southern states to forgo secession and agree to abolition. Once the Confederate states seceded and troops fired on Fort Sumter, the only solution possible was complete Southern surrender.
