The early explorers in North America founded settlements and named them after places or people from their home country. They oft

en added the word new to the town or city name from their home country. This is why we have place names such as New Hampshire and New England in North America. The places they are named after tell you where in Europe the explorers came from. For example, British settlers named the state of New Hampshire after the English county called Hampshire. Spanish explorers named many settlements after Catholic saints. For example, San Francisco was named after Saint Francis of Assisi, a twelfth-century Catholic priest.
Make a list of places (states, regions, or towns) whose names show similar connections. Make sure you find at least three to four places that show a connection to each of the three nations—Spain, France, and England.

Lee’s vision for invading pennsylvania
Mkey [24]

Answer:

The implication in Lee’s reports that his goals in the Gettysburg campaign were limited, and largely achieved, is at least partly consistent with some modern studies of the campaign. They challenge the traditional view that Gettysburg was a disastrous Confederate defeat that shattered Lee’s hopes for a war-winning victory on Northern soil. They also reject the notion that Gettysburg was a crucial turning point toward ultimate Union victory in the war. According to historians who question these traditional interpretations, Lee’s incursion into Pennsylvania was a raid, not an invasion. A smashing victory over the Army of the Potomac would have been a nice bonus, but it was not the main goal of the raid. The Union victory at Gettysburg was merely defensive, and the Army of Northern Virginia got away with its spoils and lived to fight another day— indeed, many other days, as the war continued for almost two more years. It was only in retrospect and in memory that Gettysburg became the climactic battle and turning point of the war.

Explanation:

Some of these arguments are self-evidently correct. The war did go on for almost two more years, and the Confederacy still had a chance to win it as late as August 1864 by wearing out the Northern will to continue fighting. Rebel foraging parties did scour hundreds of square miles of south-central Pennsylvania for whatever they could find and take—including many African Americans carried back to Virginia into slavery.

Hope this helps : )

Which statement best describes working conditions in the mills in the 1800s A. Workers were fed three times and their health was
defon

Answer:

B. Some workers suffered from health problems such as chronic cough due to unsafe conditions.

Explanation:

The 1800s was a year that saw the First Industrial Revolution. This revolution brought about new processes and methods of producing and manufacturing.

An with that, the working conditions were as terrible and brutal as they can be. While adults were made to work in big factories with machines in a crowded space, with hardly enough pay and unhealthy atmospheres, children were also hired for their cheap labor.

So, the statement that best describes the working conditions in the mills in the 1800s was that <u>some workers suffered from health problems like cough due to the unsafe working conditions.</u>

<span>Generally, the largest territorial and political areas within a state are known as counties.

Faketon provides services for its residents, has its own law-enforcement, and became an incorporated entity after they submitted a charter to the state. This entity is most likely a city

Providing water, garbage disposal, and law enforcement are all examples of services provided by a local government.

In this type of local government structure, a council acts as the legislature and the mayor acts as the executive, but does have limits on his power.
