Rhode Island became a haven for Baptists, Quakers, Jews and other religious minorities
<span>French Territory West of the Mississippi River (to Include Missouri) was ceded to Spain. Subsequently, in 1800 this same area was ceded back to France who subsequently sold this as the Louisiana Purchase to the United States.</span>
In Western Europe, the war was largely a stalemate as a result of extensive trench warfare that gave the defenders a massive advantage during battles. In Russia, however, the monarchy was overthrown by rebels, who then negotiated peace and surrendered large chunks of land to the Germans, allowing them to concentrate all their troops and resources to the Western Front.
Feudalism was well established in Europe by the 800s CE but appeared in Japan only in the 1100s as the Heian period drew to a close and the Kamakura Shogunate rose to power.
European feudalism died out with the growth of stronger political states in the 16th century, but Japanese feudalism held on until the Meiji Restoration of 1868.
Hope this helps and have a WONDERFUL day!!
