History

sineoko [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Thomas Jefferson helped to create a new nation based on individual freedom and self-government.  His words in the Declaration of Independence expressed the aspirations of the new nation. But the Declaration did not extend “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness” to African Americans, indentured servants, or women. Twelve of the first eighteen American presidents owned slaves. Thomas Jefferson drafted the Declaration and called slavery an “abominable crime,” yet he was a lifelong slaveholder. Fearful of dividing the fragile new nation, Jefferson and other founders who opposed slavery did not insist on abolishing it. It took 87 more years―and the Civil War, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the 13th Amendment―to end slavery.

What effect did the French and Indian War have on the British and their American colonies?
ruslelena [56]
The French and Indian War began in 1754 and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The war provided Great Britain enormous territorial gains in North America, but disputes over subsequent frontier policy and paying the war's expenses led to colonial discontent, and ultimately to the American Revolution.

What impact did the war of 1812 have on america?
aliya0001 [1]
The war of 1812 led to development of manufacturing capabilities in America. The British no longer played a role in the development of America and America was given freedom. The British no longer seized American trade ships that were going to Europe. The star spangled banner was written. America got recognition of being a sovereign nation and the government and over all nation gained a better reputation. America became allies with Canada. It also led to the White House being white because it was burned to a black color.

Answer:

Muslim control of many land trade routes

Explanation:

For centuries, Arab traders had controlled existing trade routes to Africa and Asia, which meant European merchants were forced to buy from Italian traders at high prices. They wanted to trade directly with Africa and Asia, but this meant that they had to find a new sea route.

Hope this helped!!!
