Why was Philadelphia important in colonial America?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Philadelphia was important in colonial America because it became a trading center due to its location and size.

Here's a controversial question:

<h2>Which is more important for colonial America, Boston or Philadelphia?</h2>

Depends on when, as Philadelphia had a greater population during the American Revolution and was strategically located in the midst of the colonies. Because Philadelphia is a little younger than Boston, Boston was more influential early in the Colonial period.

Both cities were equally important during the colonial period and the American Revolution. Together with New York City, these were the most populous city in the colonies at the time of the Declaration of Independence. Many consider Boston to be the Revolution's muscle, while Philadelphia was its intelligence. This isn't entirely incorrect, given the majority of the preparations and physical battles took place in Boston and the neighboring New England region. The Boston Massacre and Tea Party, the active Sons of Liberty, the Coercive or Intolerable Acts, the Battle of Lexington and Concord, the Battle of Bunker Hill, and many other events in and around Boston all contributed to the American Revolution.

Philadelphia grew in importance once the revolution began. Again, since it was the largest city at the time and was at the center of the 13 colonies. It was the greatest place for colonial officials to congregate and discuss what was going on in Boston and how it was spreading across the provinces. Philadelphia became the site of the First Continental Congress, the Second Continental Congress, and the drafting and signing of the Declaration of Independence. It was also the site of the signing of the Articles of Confederation. Following the Revolution, Philadelphia was chosen once more for the Constitutional Convention and later as the temporary capital of the new government while Washington, D.C. was being built.

Boston and Philadelphia were both vital to the colonies, but Philadelphia's position made it a more strategically crucial city during the Revolution.

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

A, B and D

Explanation:

Man-made disasters can be prevented by applying the options above.

Alarm systems have proven to be very effective in alerting people to potential dangers in their environment whether in the home or workplace. For example, a fire alarm which goes off on the detection of smoke enable people to evacuate a building and the fire department to be called in to contain the situation.

Plans for evacuation and shelter in the event of a disaster cannot be underestimated. For example, the evacuation of people living near and around nuclear reactor sites or chemical plants should be planned for.

Regular inspection by licensed inspectors, of man-made structures goes a long way in helping determine whether those structures are still durable and reliable. For instance, regular inspection of old architectures like buildings and bridges enable us see warning signs about a potential disaster and take steps to stop it.

Implementation of a fail-safe mechanism recognises potential failures in system designs and protects against such failures resulting in a fatality.
