With the help of neighbour and Chinese man who ate bat soup
Explanation:
Belief in the supernatural-and specifically in the devil's practice of giving certain humans (witches) the power to harm others in return for their loyalty-had emerged in Europe as early as the 14th century, and was widespread in colonial New England. In addition, the harsh realities of life in the rural Puritan community of Salem Village (present-day Danvers, Massachusetts) at the time included the after-effects of a British war with France in the American colonies in 1689, a recent smallpox epidemic, fears of attacks from neighboring Native American tribes and a longstanding rivalry with the more affluent community of Salem Town (present-day Salem). Amid these simmering tensions, the Salem witch trials would be
fueled by residents' suspicions of and resentment toward their neighbors, as well as their fear of outsiders.
Because the Americans knew that if they entered the war they would need a lot of money, lives would be lost, it was questionable what would happen with the political scene; whether the ruling party would still have the majority vote once it was all over, they would be more susceptible to attack, etc.
There are many factors to consider before deciding on entering a war.
