Answer:

The Boers, also known as Afrikaners, were the descendants of the original Dutch settlers of southern Africa. Britain took possession of the Dutch Cape colony in 1806 during the Napoleonic wars, sparking resistance from the independence-minded Boers, who resented the Anglicization of South Africa and Britain’s anti-slavery policies. In 1833, the Boers began an exodus into African tribal territory, where they founded the republics of the Transvaal and the Orange Free State. The two new republics lived peaceably with their British neighbors until 1867 when the discovery of diamonds and gold in the region made the conflict between the Boer states and Britain inevitable.

In mid-1863 the Union gained control of the entire length of Mississippi River. What strategic advantage did this give the Union

Shalnov [3]

Answer: Some historians believe that the Mississippi River's control was a key factor that decided the victor in the war.

Explanation:

Statistics say that as many as 26 battles were fought around that strategic place during the civil war and countless smaller conflicts. Control of the Mississippi River was one of the key factors in the Civil War. After the Union gained control of the Mississippi River, it gained a huge strategic advantage. In the first place, it divided the Confederation into two parts, and since the communication was flowing along that river, communication with the Confederation was disabled. With this move, the Union also economically weakened the Confederation since there was a huge flow of goods along the river to be disabled. Thus the Confederation was economically in disarray.
