There were several factors that moved America towards independence from Britain. They are as followed:
1) The development of an American culture- Even though the colonists were still part of Great Britain during the 18th century, many of these individuals were natives of the colonies and had never even been to Great Britain before. This is a huge transformation from when settlers came here originally to find freedom from religious persecution during the early 16th and17th centuries.
2) Colonists being forced to into wars they did not want to fight in- The British army was constantly fighting with other European powers like France in North America. This resulted in colonists being part of wars they did not want to be in (like the French and Indian War).
Answer:
The correct answer is <u>B</u>: Michelangelo
Explanation:
<em>David </em>is a Renaissance Sculpture made by the Italian artist Michelangelo between 1500 and 1504. It is a marble statue that represents a Biblical hero David at the time of his fight with Goliath, and it also represents a symbol of the medieval state of Florence.
David is one of Michelangelo's two greatest sculptural works and it's also considered one of the most recognizable sculptures in the world. Michelangelo's David differs from other versions of David because it portrays David before his battle, while the other artists represent him after his glorious victory over the giant.
The Statue of David is currently located in the Accademia Gallery in Florence.

Slavery was not outlawed in the United States by the Declaration of Independence.
Lenin had an idealistic vision about a socialist state that had nothing to do with the reality of what happened later on in the Soviet Union. The vision of Lenin was to create a society where all the people will be equal, thus there would be a horizontal hierarchy. Also, all the people should have earned the same amount of money, and all of them would have had enough for a decent living. The country should have been stable, and the economy self-sustaining.
In reality, the Soviet Union turned to be a society where there was lot of discrimination. The people were terrorized, and millions died because of their opinion, ethnicity, or religion. The society was ruled by the oligarchy, and the rest of the people were living in relatively poor conditions. Because of bad economic planning there were multiple years in which there was not enough food.
Cold War concerns about the containment of communism were a priority for President Dwight Eisenhower, who had been a prominent military general before becoming president. His concerns for increasing and strengthening America's national security gave impetus to the plan to create an interstate highway system.
Eisenhower, the former general, had seen how Germany's Autobahn system of highways had been an asset to their strength. He came to see highways as an important part of our country's national defense. When Eisenhower gave a speech to Congress in 1955, to promote the building of a federal highway system, he listed safety on the roads and economic advantages as strong reasons for the huge project. But he also listed a national security reason, saying: "In case of an atomic attack on our key cities, the road net must permit quick evacuation of target areas, mobilization of defense forces and maintenance of every essential economic function. But the present system in critical areas would be the breeder of a deadly congestion within hours of an attack" (Special Message to the Congress Regarding a National Highway Program, <span>February 22, 1955).
