Answer:

The British Government had imposed many taxes and wanted to fully control the colonists.

Explanation:

Various taxes and acts were implemented on the American colonists like Tea Tax, Stamp Act, Townshend Acts, Intolerable Act etc. These acts and taxes gave the Britishers full control over the thirteen Americans colonies. This also enabled the Britishers to gain more capital by collecting taxes. The British government had suffered a lot financially and had to pay their post-war debt through this collection of money.

If the Civil War had begun as a war to restore the Union, how did this Proclamation changed the purpose of the war?

OlgaM077 [116]

The Proclamation changed the purpose of the war into one of freeing slaves completely, making the long war into one about wether or not slavery would remain in place . The South claiming that they needed slaves to work on their plantations and needed slaves to help around was a major part of the war . They wanted to continue on this racist act of holding “different” people under their feet. Many say now that the this was not a reason for the war nor the separation between the north and south but when looking back at every statement made by every southern state slavery is mentioned for their uprising .
