How the Declaration Came About

America's declaration of independence from the British Empire was the nation's founding moment. But it was not inevitable. Until the spring of 1776, most colonists believed that the British Empire offered its citizens freedom and provided them protection and opportunity. The mother country purchased colonists' goods, defended them from Native American Indian and European aggressors, and extended British rights and liberty to colonists. In return, colonists traded primarily with Britain, obeyed British laws and customs, and pledged their loyalty to the British crown. For most of the eighteenth century, the relationship between Britain and her American colonies was mutually beneficial. Even as late as June 1775, Thomas Jefferson said that he would "rather be in dependence on Great Britain, properly limited, than on any nation upon earth, or than on no nation."[1]
But this favorable relationship began to face serious challenges in the wake of the Seven Years' War. In that conflict with France, Britain incurred an enormous debt and looked to its American colonies to help pay for the war. Between 1756 and 1776, Parliament issued a series of taxes on the colonies, including the Stamp Act of 1765, the Townshend Duties of 1766, and the Tea Act of 1773. Even when the taxes were relatively light, they met with stiff colonial resistance on principle, with colonists concerned that “taxation without representation” was tyranny and political control of the colonies was increasingly being exercised from London. Colonists felt that they were being treated as second-class citizens. But after initially compromising on the Stamp Act, Parliament supported increasingly oppressive measures to force colonists to obey the new laws. Eventually, tensions culminated in the shots fired between British troops and colonial militia at Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775.
The correct answer is D) Abbasid rulers became wealthy by controlling trade between East Asia and Europe.
The statement that describes the Abbasid Empire between the eighth and thirteenth centuries is "Abbasid rulers became wealthy by controlling trade between East Asia and Europe."

Answer:
They could not participate in a abolitionist meeting.
Explanation:
They were seeking to organize and advance the women's suffrage movement. The national meeting in Seneca Falls in New York in 1848 was the first women's rights convention to be held in the United States. The Declaration of Sentiments was signed by 68 women and 32 men who had been among the participants in the convention. The document was modeled after Thomas Jefferson's Declaration of Independence. In the way that Jefferson had listed grievances against the British monarchy, The Declaration of Sentiments listed grievances against how men oppressed women in regard to civil rights.
B. The 3/5 (Three-fifths) compromise
I just took the test, lol!!
Back then, Portugal had a very strong and
rigorous army. The army was fully armed with cannons and guns so they were sure
of a win if they waged war on the coastal towns. And sure, they waged war which
overawed the enemy’s navy and left the coastal town villages completely burnt
down and the inhabitants injured and others dead.
