Answer:

True but it was more like this... King Nebuchadnezzar ordered a gold statue to be built 27 meters high and nearly 3 meters wide. He had it set up in Dura Valley near the city of Babylon, and he commanded his governors, advisors, treasurers, judges, and his other officials to come from everywhere in his kingdom to the dedication of the statue. So all of them came and stood in front of it. Then an official stood up and announced: People of every nation and race, now listen to the king's command! Trumpets, flutes, harps, and all other kinds of musical instruments will soon start playing. When you hear the music, you must bow down and worship the statue that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up. Anyone who refuses will at once be thrown into a flaming furnace. As soon as the people heard the music, they bowed down and worshiped the gold statue that the king had set up. Some Babylonians used this as a chance to accuse the Jews to King Nebuchadnezzar. They said, “Your Majesty, we hope you live forever! You commanded everyone to bow down and worship the gold statue when the music played. And you said that anyone who did not bow down and worship it would be thrown into a flaming furnace. Sir, you appointed three men to high positions in Babylon Province, but they have disobeyed you. Those Jews, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, refuse to worship your gods and the statue you have set up.” King Nebuchadnezzar was furious. So he sent for the three young men and said, “I hear that you refuse to worship my gods and the gold statue I have set up. Now I am going to give you one more chance. If you bow down and worship the statue when you hear the music, everything will be all right. But if you don't, you will at once be thrown into a flaming furnace. No god can save you from me.” The three men replied, “Your Majesty, we don't need to defend ourselves. The God we worship can save us from you and your flaming furnace. But even if he doesn't, we still won't worship your gods and the gold statue you have set up.” Nebuchadnezzar's face twisted with anger at the three men. And he ordered the furnace to be heated seven times hotter than usual. Next, he commanded some of his strongest soldiers to tie up the men and throw them into the flaming furnace. The king wanted it done at that very moment. So the soldiers tied up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and threw them into the flaming furnace with all of their clothes still on, including their turbans. The fire was so hot that flames leaped out and killed the soldiers. Suddenly the king jumped up and shouted, “Weren't only three men tied up and thrown into the fire?” “Yes, Your Majesty,” his officers answered. “But I see four men walking around in the fire,” the king replied. “None of them is tied up or harmed, and the fourth one looks like a god.”

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Get the British to revoke their Orders in Council, which placed harsh trade restrictions on the Americans.

Get the British to stop the impressment of American sailors into the Royal Navy.

Defend Americans' rights to freedom of the seas .

Explanation:

The Impressment of Sailors

Impressment of sailors was the operation of Britain's Royal Navy of sending officers to board American ships, examine its crew, and seize the sailors that were found guilty of being runaways from British ships.

occurrences of impressment are often recognized as one of the causes of the War of 1812. And while it is true that impressment occurred on a regular basis in the first decade of the 19th century, the exercises was not always seen as a awfully significant problem.

It was widely known that vast numbers of British sailors did abandon from British warships, frequently because of the hard regulations and miserable surroundings endured by seamen in the Royal Navy.

The impressment of sailors was definitely one of the causes of the War of 1812.

Trade Restrictions of the Americans

With the early Englishmen that settled in Jamestown, Virginia, and Plymouth, Massachusetts, England did little to direct their trade. As the colonies got more prosperous, however, England began to enforce its mercantile ideologies. A string of laws were passed in 1660s known as the Navigation Acts. They were established to make the Americans depend on the manufactured products of England. The colonists, of course, were expected to buy more from England than they sold and pay the gap(difference) in gold and silver. Therefore, England forbade all non-English ships from trading with colonies.

Freedom of the seas

A challenge to the discipline of freedom of the seas arose soon after the conclusion of the revolutionary war. In 1784, American commercial shipping in the Mediterranean, lacking the shielding of he British navy, came under attack from the North African Kingdoms along what was known as the Barbary Coast.

EXCEPT

The federalists opposed the war, they viewed the war as way to further the interests of the Republicans. The federalists also feared that the war would through the nation into the arms of the Napoleon.
