Georgia,
British artist Thomas Addison Richards painted River Plantation (1855-60) from sketches made in Georgia during his travels through the South in the 1840s. Oil on canvas (20 1/4" x 30").
River Plantation
uniquely situated among southern states on the eve of the Civil War (1861-65), played a vital part in the formation of the Confederacy. A geographic lynchpin that linked Atlantic seaboard and Deep South states, the "Empire State" was the second-largest state in area east of the Mississippi River (Virginia was larger until West Virginia broke away in 1861), and the second-largest Deep South state (only Texas was larger). In population, slave and free, Georgia was the largest in the Deep South. Both geographically and demographically, Georgia encompassed as much diversity as any other Confederate state, and these factors had an important impact on how the state experienced the war years and what it contributed to the Southern war effort.
Answer:
The Townshend Acts of 1767-1768 placed taxes on items such as glass, lead, paint, paper, and tea. One of the Townshend Acts allowed general search warrants. British offi ials used these to combat smuggling— illegally moving goods in or out of a country. Then, Parliament passed the Tea Act. " This measure was not a tax. In fact, it allowed a British company that grew tea in India to import its tea into the colonies without paying the existing tea tax. This made the British company’s tea cheaper than other tea sold in the colonies. Still, Parliament’s control of taxes angered the colonists."
The colonists were not at all happy with this, and resulted in the Boston Tea Party, which involved throwing hundreds of thousands of barrels of tea overboard British ships [while dressed as Native Indians], resulting in punishment from Parliament, the Intolerable Acts, also known as the Coercive Acts.
