  • Many of these people began to look for ways to invest their new-found wealth. One of these ways was to invest in colonies. ... England also looked at the settlement of colonies as a way of fulfilling its desire to sell more goods and resources to other countries than it bought.

Answer:

1. Why did the British have colonies abroad/overseas?

  • For natural resources provided by the colonies and opportunities for trading/doing business.
  • They were competing to have the most power and the biggest number of colonies with other empires like Spain.
  • Opportunities to get wealth and have more land.
  • Many people began to look for things to do with their recently found wealth. One way people used their wealth was by investing in the colonies and their goods.
  • England thought it would be a good idea to sell goods to the colonies in order to fulfill its desire of expanding trade to other countries.

2. The thirteen colonies were New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia.

3. How were they able to achieve this? (I'm not exactly sure what you wanted here but I hope this helps)

People went on explorations to find new land and hopefully wealth. England did this through charters from the British king/government. Trade was used to get goods that weren't available in your area by giving goods made in your area. The largest navy on Earth during this time was the Royal Navy with 7 aircraft carriers (and 5 more under construction), 15 battleships and battlecruisers (and 5 more under construction), 66 cruisers (and 23 more under construction), 184 destroyers (and 52 under construction). Settlers travelled to new areas in search of more land, better goods, possibly more food, and wealth.

Many say Cleopatra's life ended in tragedy. Describe this "tragedy" in your own words below:
KiRa [710]

Answer:I think Cleopatra was in love with a Greek man (Greeks and Egyptians were enemies) But when the other Greeks found out, they killed him, and in sorrow, she kiIIed herself via snake poison, and then the Greek leader kiIIed Cleopatra's son and made Egypt part of Greece  (or something like that.) Egypt is part of Africa now though, so I don't know how that happened, but whatever.

Explanation: Anyway, it's pretty tragic, partly because before her death she lost the love of her life and when she died she had to come to terms with leaving her kingdom to be conquered by the Greeks, and leaving her son behind.

I just looked it up, and I guess her choice was to either "Fall under Octavian's' domination" or kiII herself. So before her death she was pretty much backed into a corner. She probably felt that death was her only escape, and I guess it was, but she could've <em><u>tried</u></em> to escape to protect her son at least, I don't know, maybe she did.

ANYWAY, I digress.

So, this isn't really describing her tragedy, but I hope you can take away from it and describe her tragedy in your own words. Have a great day!!

Let me know if this helps at all, okie? :)
