A huge part of it had to deal with the way that the French government dealt with debt.
<span>Only their third estate, primarily poor merchants and peasants, paid any taxes. The French largely funded the American Revolution because of their long-standing animosity with Great Britain. However, the debt they incurred was only slowly paid off because the people they were taxing had very little money. The country fell into an economic crisis and resentment began to build against the first and second estates--the weathly, title-holder, landed gentry and clergy. Thus the revolution. </span>
<span>A good comparison is Great Britain post-America Revolution, who taxed their citizens more fairly and avoided revolution by not throwing most of their citizens into the desperate straits of poverty.</span>
Answer:
In order to stem the onslaught of Comanche attacks on settlers and travelers, the U.S. government assigned the Indians to reservations in 1867. Quanah and his band, however, refused to cooperate and continued their raids.
In 1830, Jackson ignored a Supreme Court ruling to sign into law the Indian Removal Act, forcing native people to lands in the West, away from their homes east of the Mississippi river.
The reason: Gold.
Gold had been found on Cherokee land, and Jackson wanted it. The president’s excuse for removal – claiming the Cherokees had violated the constitution by declaring their own state without approval – was a smokescreen.
The native Americans were eventually forced to march 800 miles west. From the 47,000 southeastern Indians that were uprooted, it is estimated that 1 in 4 died from either exhaustion or starvation on what is now called The Trail of Tears. Jackson acquired more than one hundred million acres of land.
The Indian Removal Act was genocide.
Andrew Jackson should not be on the $20 bill I have many more reason but that’s the biggest.
The Bill of Rights in the Constitution protected RAPPS. RAPPS stands for religion, assembly, press, petition, and speech.
