Explanation:
The Olive Branch Petition written by John Dickinson was drafted at a time when the colonists were seeking independence from the King. This was as a result of the sufferings they were made to undergo, stemming from the high taxes imposed on them to compensate the dwindling resources spent by the King in the war with France. They clearly wanted independence but without the consequence of war. They also were asserting loyalty to the King. This seemed like two requests that could be hardly granted at the same time.
King George III did not read the letters not to talk of granting the request for he already declared war on the colonists prior to the time when they tendered the letters.
Answer:
The correct answer is D. A group of Chinese peasants resisted the loss of their traditional ways of living.
Explanation:
The Boxer Rebellion was a Chinese movement against European, US and Japanese imperialism. In the spring and summer of 1900, the attacks of the Boxer movement against foreigners and Chinese Christians brought about a war between China and a coalition consisting of Germany, France, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Austria-Hungary, Russia and the USA, which ended with a defeat for the Chinese.
It was directed primarily at Chinese Christians and their missionaries, and eventually at Western political and commercial influence in China in general. Eventually, it became an overriding goal for the boxers and for the forces at the Qing court who supported and nurtured them to get all foreigners removed from China. From the point of view of the foreign powers, the goal was initially to come to the aid of besieged foreigners in Beijing, but eventually there was a punitive expedition and a positional race in the expectation that the Qing dynasty would have to hand over even more power to foreign powers.
