Answer:
The correct answer is C. George III's rejection of the Olive Branch Petition played a role in the decision of the Second Continental Congress to declare independence from Great Britain.
Explanation:
Most settlers expected a reconciliation with the metropolis, even after the revolutionary war began in Lexington and Concord in April 1775. The second Continental Congress met in the Pennsylvania State Chamber in Philadelphia in May 1775 and some representatives expected the subsequent independence, but it was not discussed in declaring it. Although many settlers no longer believed that Parliament had sovereignty over them, they continued to profess loyalty to George III and expected him to intercede on their behalf. At the end of 1775 they became disillusioned when the king rejected the second request of Congress, issued a proclamation of rebellion and announced to Parliament on October 26 that he was considering "friendly offers of foreign aid" to suppress the uprising. A pro-American minority in Parliament warned that the central government was encouraging settlers to independence.
The immediate trigger of the conflict was Napoleon's invasion of the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) in 1807 and 1808, but its roots also lay in the growing discontent of creole elites (people of Spanish ancestry who had been born in Latin America) with the restrictions imposed by Spanish imperial rule.
Answer:
From 1882 to 1943 the United States Government severely curtailed immigration from China to the United States. This Federal policy resulted from concern over the large numbers of Chinese who had come to the United States in response to the need for inexpensive labor, especially for construction of the transcontinental railroad. Competition with American workers and a growing nativism brought pressure for restrictive action, which began with the Act of May 6, 1882 (22 Stat. 58). Passed by the 47th Congress, this law suspended immigration of Chinese laborers for ten years; permitted those Chinese in the United States as of November 17, 1880, to stay, travel abroad, and return; prohibited the naturalization of Chinese; and created the Section 6 exempt status for teachers, students, merchants, and travelers. These exempt classes would be admitted upon presentation of a certificate from the Chinese government.
