The Intolerable Acts were passed by Parliment as a reactionary measure against the colonists after the Boston Tea Party. Most were aimed at punishing Boston itself. The main 4 effects thr Intolerable acts had were:
1. Closing the Boston Port and significantly hurting the trade-based Boston economy.
2. Banning public Town Assemblies and strengthening the power of the Military Governor (who was loyal to the crown).
3. Allowimg British officials to be tried for crimes in London rather than in the US, increasing their chances of being acquitted significantly.
4. Reviving some elements of the Quartering Act.

These measures alienated the colonists and damaged the economy of Boston, fueling hostility towards London and the King.

How were Japanese-Americans treated differently than German-Americans and Italian-Americans?
Talja [164]

Japanese Americans after the Pearl Harbor attack were removed from their homes against their will and placed in internment camps after Executive Order 9066 was instituted by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, despite heavy resistance from the political system. It was done in the name of national security, since it was assumed that there might be sleeper agents for the Japanese in the U.S.

This was very similar to what was done to German-Americans in both WWI and WWII. After the repeated German submarine attacks, German Americans were labeled "enemy aliens" and place in internment camps. The executive order from FDR also applied to Germans, as well as Italians.

However, the Japanese were treated differently because Japanese people who were American citizens were also apprehended, despite the order originally applying to only enemy aliens, or non-citizens.

How did Hamilton contribute to the changes made to the Articles of Confederation? How did his views on the Articles of Confedera
dangina [55]

Answer:

He was elected one of the delegates and made a speech about how he wanted to focus on a centralized government. He famously wrote 51 articles of the famous federalist papers along with John Jay and James Madison.

Explanation:

He felt there were many contradictions and issues with the Articles of Confederation, so it was eventually scrapped. He advocated for a strong centralized government which many other delegates disagreed with. By centralized government, he meant he wanted the government to have more power to tax, have a bank and a strong executive. If there wasn't  a strong centralized government, then the people could easily walk all over them.
