Answer:

The event that made France decide to help the Americans in the Revolutionary War was the Battle of Saratoga in 1777.

Explanation:

The objective of France was to weaken England, to prevent it from becoming more powerful and to take revenge for the defeat it suffered in the Seven Years' War. After the US capture of the invading British army at Saratoga (1777), and after the French Navy was rehabilitated, France was ready. In 1778 France recognized the United States as a sovereign nation, signed a military alliance and created coalitions with the Netherlands and Spain, which kept Britain without a significant ally to help it.

It gave the Americans grants, weapons, loans, and sent an army to serve under George Washington, that prevented the second British army from escaping from Yorktown in 1781. For all, France spent approximately 13 billion dollars in current currency to support Americans directly, not including the money they spent fighting against England on land and sea outside the United States.

How did congressional neutrality towards slavery in the federal territories actually stir up sectional strife
dusya [7]

Answer:

The neutrality of the congress generated polarization in the country. This polarization caused states where slavery was prohibited to criticize and devalue states where slavery was allowed, which retaliated against devaluation with further devaluation.

Explanation:

When Congress decided to stay neutral in relation to slavery in the country, Congressmen believed that this would generate peace in the country, as each state would have autonomy to decide whether it wanted to use slaves or not.

However, the result could not have been more different. Neutrality generated polarization and many conflicts between countries that allowed slaves and prohibited slaves. Countries that did not allow slavery criticized, devalued and tried to interfere with the autonomy of the states that allowed slavery. The slaves who allowed slavery did not tolerate this interference and retaliated as best they could, in addition to promoting a strong devaluation in relation to free countries.
