By this time, there was already a growing middle class from New England through down to the southern colonies. These new taxation were done without consent nor representation for the colonists which greatly angered them as the taxes were already immensely expensive on daily items such as tea and stamps. The enlightenment thought was also influential, as new schools of thought challenged the position of the individual to the state and monarchy. Eventually, sentiment grew and the colonists fought for their freedom from heavy taxation and monarchy, winning it in 1783.
Similarly, the French revolution saw its beginnings in similar fashion to that of the American revolution. France just fought two major conflicts (French and Indian war, as well as siding with the colonists in the American Revolution).

Rasek [7]

Answer:

<em>d. A dead Indian.</em>

Explanation:

When the Plymouth colony ship crew and passengers docked at the shore, a small party was sent to explore the area inland. When the exploratory party went inland, they first encountered an old European-built house with an iron kettle, which was probably left behind by some ship's crew. They also came across recently cultivated fields, some of these fields still had corn stubble. Next, the team came across an artificial mound near the dunes. When they partially uncovered the mound, they found it to be an Indian grave, with a dead Indian. As they traveled further inland, other similar mounds were found, which were more recently, and these ones were graves with corns in them. The team then took some of the corn, which they later used as seed for planting, and covered the mound back with its remaining content.
