How was the Declaration of Independence viewed when it was first written?

1 answer:

4 0

The Declaration of Independence was written in 1776 by the Continental Congress. It was viewed as a document of the people wanting to Declare their independence from Britain. After all the taxes/laws the colonists have gone through, they had enough (Stamp Act, Sugar Act, Townshend Act, Intolerable Acts, etc.) Almost all colonists viewed it as their ray of "hope." There are a few loyalists who disapprove, though.

If you had been making the journey on the Mayflower what would you have done to prepare for life in america

emmainna [20.7K]

I would bring hygienic stuff because most people died on ships due to diseases and there have been outbreaks of viruses (especially during the winter) in settlements. I would also bring seeds/ food with me because then once I arrive I could begin harvesting before the winter. Speaking of winter, I would also bring anything that would keep me warm such as animal fur, blankets, etc.

The correct answer here is A.

John Jacob Astor was born in 1763 to father who was a butcher so he was not very wealthy. He amassed his fortune by trading fur through that business he became one of the most wealthy people in the United States. Astor traded sandalwood, teas and of course fur with China which turned out very profitable for him.
