History

Irina-Kira [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

★ Initially, the colonists accepted these taxes because they were lightly enforced by the government. These taxes were also light themselves, and were not a harsh payment to make for imports. When the British government did enforce these light duties and eventually added more direct taxes, the colonists feared that by accepting these, they would lose their property and political rights to the British. In the end, the colonists opposed all taxes imposed on them by the government.

Hope you have a great day :)

Which precedent was set by President George Washington during his first term in office? A. visiting foreign countries B. appoint
liq [111]
The precedent set by President George Washington during his first term in office was B. appointing a cabinet. The first sitting president to visit a foreign country was Woodrow Wilson who visited Europe after World War I to promote his League of Nations. President Washington actually avoided emphasizing a military aspect of the presidency while in office, preferring to be called Mister President rather than anything more formal. Additionally, Washington did not set a precedent of serving for life, but rather he set the precedent of serving only two terms, a practice that would remain until FDR was elected four times.
