Why was Napoleon’s delay of the retreat form Moscow such a great blunder?

History

tester [92]3 years ago

Answer: The Russian winter destroyed Napoleon's army.

Explanation:

According to military analysts, Napoleon made many mistakes during his campaign against Russia. Among the biggest is certainly the prolongation of the withdrawal of its troops on time. After the battle for Moscow, both armies declared victory. In any case, Napoleon waited for the Russian tsar to offer peace to Napoleon under French conditions. Days passed in such circumstances. The strong Russian winter, the large number of wounded, and the lack of food further decimated Napoleon's army. Wars during the 19th century were unthinkable without horses.

The horses hauled complete logistics and served in color. The postponement of Napoleon's retreat led to the disappearance of horse food. In such circumstances, tens of thousands of horses died from lack of food. Recent historical research has provided very interestingly additional information in this context. Namely, historians claim that the French horsemen made a mistake because they did not adopt the horse griffins to the ice. The vultures were not thick enough, so they did not drive enough into the ice, so many horses broke their legs.

Under the Articles of Confederation, on whom did the Confederation Congress rely to enforce its laws?
xz_007 [3.2K]

<em>A.  Individual states.</em>

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution for the United States. They were known for being very weak and giving little to no power to the government, only to the states. Under the Articles, the government could not tax the states, regulate trade, create and enforce laws properly, draft soldiers, and other important aspects of what a government needs to do.

Since most of the power went to the states, it was very hard to do anything. The Confederation Congress relied on the states in order to enforce any laws and 9 out of 13 of the states had to agree with it.

Eventually, people started to realize how the Articles of Confederation was doing more harm than good and was potentially harming the country. The people who believed in this and wanted to amend the Articles were called Federalists. On the other hand, people who were in support of the Articles and wanted the power to be in the hands of the states were called Anti-Federalists.

When the<em> Constitutional Convention of 1787</em> was called, the original goal was to amend the Articles of Confederation. This did not happen though. The Articles actually ended up getting scrapped altogether and the United States Constitution was created instead.
