An important resource that Spain wanted from the colonies was gold.
I need to see the photo to come up with an answer
Hi Curious,
So in October 7, 1765, the Stamp Act Congress in New York city, made up of representatives of nine colonies, sent a petition to King George III and Parliament, requesting that colonists have representation if they were to be taxed.
-Hope this helped!
They gave more control to the States than the actual Federal Government.
This was intentional due to the colonists not wanting a strong central
government and cause a repeat of England's rule. This proved to be
inadequate because the federal government was unable to regulate taxes
or even gather an army to help with disputes. These flaws in the
Articles were shown with Shay's Rebellion as the Continental Army
(federal government's army) was slow to organize and confront the
problem. They did not give congress and national government enough power. It also did not give congress the power to tax, which caused the government to print more money, and lead to inflation. Another valid reason why the Articles of Confederation was inadequate, it did not give congress to the power to draft troops.
Answer:The answer is option 1: Loyalists supported the Continental Congress.
Explanation:
Loyalists supported the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War, therefore they were against the Congress and the ongoing revolution at that time. Congress, as well as all states, passed repressive measures against them, such as orders to confiscate or tax their property, prohibition to hold office and disenfranchise them.
