History

Nimfa-mama [501]3 years ago
5 0
The American colonists tried to let King George III know about their grievances in several different ways before sending the Declaration of Independence to him.

1) Boston Tea Party- This event that happened in December 1773 was a result of the Tea Act. This act put a tax on British tea, which was a popular drink for the American colonists. To show their dissatisfaction with this law, American colonists boarded British ships and destroyed the tea. This showed King George III that the colonists were unhappy with his new law.

2) Olive Branch Petition- This letter sent by members of the Second Continental Congress discussed how the colonists were still loyal to the British as of July 1775. However, if King George III did not change his policies, the colonists threatened action.

How did the inhabitants of Vicksburg survive during Grant’s siege on their city?
Scilla [17]

Hello!


During the siege, many residents of Vicksburg lived in caves to protect themselves from the constant bombings of the Union against the city from both the ground artillery and the naval artillery of the Union fleet, which was bombing from the Mississippi. In that siege they were gradually reduced to eating horses and mules, and then dogs, cats and rats.


I hope this can help you.

Regards!

astraxan [27]

The French demanded that the United States provide France with a low-interest loan, assume and pay American merchant claims against the French, and lastly pay a substantial bribe to Talleyrand. The U.S. envoys were shocked, and also skeptical that any concessions would bring about substantial changes in French policy.
