Answer:

George Washington was selected by the Continental Congress to guide the Continental Army in the American Revolutionary War for two main reasons:

-On the one hand, he was the patriot with the most military experience in the Thirteen Colonies, since he had commanded troops efficiently during the French and Indian War and had organized the militias of Virginia after this war.

-On the other hand, Washington was a very important political figure in Virginia, which at that time was the most populous colony (and therefore, the one that could contribute more resources and more men to the cause). Therefore, by appointing Washington as commander, the Continental Congress secured Virginia's support for the patriotic cause.

What were the first fossils found in antarctica? where and when were they found? worksheet answerrs?
Mila [183]
Antarctica, as we know it today, is located at the south pole. However, it was not always there or so cold! Around 500 million years ago, during the Cambrian period, Antarctica was actually closer during Earth's equator! Due to continental drift, Antarctica was attached to Australia and shifted more to the south during the time of the dinosaurs. The first fossils found were of marine reptiles called plesiosaurs. They were found on Seymour Island in 1982. The first dinosaur fossil found was of an ankylosaur. It was found on James Ross Island in 1986.
