There were several reasons that led to the US war of independence. First and the foremost reason was over taxation by the British to cover their expenses that were incurred because of the Indo-French war. This enraged the US citizens and they wanted to revolt against the British. Certain goods like cotton, tobacco etc.that were made in America had to be sold to sold to the British and again those goods were further taxed for selling. There was definite policy of double taxation. The gold that were sold to the Americans by the Europeans had to land in Britain first and then after taxation it reached America by British ships.

What pathogens were spread along the silk road

Stells [14]

Answer:

Hey you go

Explanation:

Silk, tea and spices weren't the only things that travelers carried on China's legendary Silk Road: Ancient poop shows that infectious diseases were also transported along this network of trade routes, according to a new study.

Researchers excavated 2,000-year-old feces from a latrine along the Silk Road in northwestern China, and found that it contained eggs from the Chinese liver fluke, a parasitic worm that is typically found at least 930 miles (1,500 kilometers) away, according to the study.

The researchers suggested that the traveler infected with this parasite must have journeyed a great distance. "This is the earliest evidence for the spread of infectious diseases along the Silk Road, and the first to find evidence at an archaeological site along the Silk Road itself," Piers Mitchell, a paleopathologist at the University of Cambridge and the senior author of the study, told Live Science.

The researchers found the feces on "personal hygiene sticks" — wood or bamboo rods with cloth wrapped around one end that people used to wipe excrement off bottoms. Under a microscope, the researchers examined the feces from seven of such sticks to look for signs of ancient parasites.
