History
1 answer:
m_a_m_a [10]3 years ago
7 0

Because the large federal government of England had been oppressing them for years. They rebelled against the tyranny showed to them by the British government, so after years of mistreatment at the hands of big governments, they wanted to structure their own government so that it could not oppress them. Hence, they wanted a small government that gave the people more individual power.

To what degree did Britain get involved in the American Civil War?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<u><em>The British Involvement</em></u>

Britain was engaged without proclaiming which side they were on. The south relied on the protection of Britain, but they did not get it. The British Government needed to help the Confederacy. British common people were anti-slavery. British had a sufficient supply of cotton and did not need the South for that supply.

Given bad crop yields, Britain was pressured to import grain from the North

<u><em>The Trent Affair</em></u>

First major crisis in late 1861, with Britain. A British ship was stopped by Union warship and 2 Confederate Delegates removed. Slow communication has given UK time to calm down.

<u><em>Alabama</em></u>

British made a Confederate Warship. The ship picked up arms in Cuba. Union merchant ships were captured and burned. Canada was invaded by the north.

<u><em>Laird Rams</em></u>

Two huge warships made in the UK. Fabricated to sink Union ships. Had they supported the West, Canada would have been overrun by the East.
