Five Forks was such an important strategic position for Lee and the Confederate Army because it was a point that made the Confederacy able to control the South Side Railroad.

Once the Confederates lost Five Forks on April, 1865, the cities of Petersburg and Richmond were put in danger, as the Confederates had lost a rapid way to reach those cities to defend them.

Answer:

“During the European Enlightenment, thinkers were setting forth the idea that

governments should be structured on a foundation of law and that a contract existed

between the government and the governed. It was not too great a step from that idea to the

belief that revolution against those who abused the existing contract was justified. The

makers of the American revolution and later the founders of the American constitutional

system of government were guided in their actions and beliefs by the theory of natural

rights and the idea of representative government, as advocated by the Enlightenment

thinkers.”

Now, write a reflective paragraph on how many forces came together to create a desire for

a new type of government; a new society.
