Answer:

It is estimated that hundreds took part in the Boston Tea Party. For fear of punishment, many participants of the Boston Tea Party remained anonymous for many years after the event. To date it is known that 116 people are documented to have participated. Not all of the participants of the Boston Tea Party are known; many carried the secret of their participation to their graves. The participants were made up of males from all walks of colonial society. Many were from Boston or the surrounding area, but some participants are documented to have come from as far away as Worcester in central Massachusetts and Maine. The vast majority was of English descent, but men of Irish, Scottish, French, Portuguese, and African ancestry were documented to have also participated. The participants were of all ages, but the majority of the documented participants was under the age of forty. Sixteen participants were teenagers, and only nine men were above the age of forty. Many of the Boston Tea Party participants fled Boston immediately after the destruction of the tea to avoid arrest. Thousands witnessed the event, and the implication and impact of this action were enormous ultimately leading to the start of the American Revolution.

What did John Adams do to make his term as president so bad?
I am Lyosha [343]
I think that it could be argued whether or not he was "bad" but he definitely wasn't the best. 

The biggest arguments for John Adams as a bad president:

1) He acted too much on his own beliefs and didn't go along with any party. Didn't go against Washington's wishes and enter war against France, which a lot of people disagreed with.

2) The Alien Acts made it easier to deport foreigners, and made it more difficult for immigrants to vote. The sedition acts were basically a form of censorship that prevented people from saying negative things about the government. 

3) He was not as religious as many other politicians at the time, and is famous for saying that the United States is not a Christian country. 

Basically, he did things based on his own beliefs and didn't go along with any one party. This caused both parties to hate him, and some could say that it led to the death of the Federalist party since they were without any real leader during this time.

Pyramids

Nile Delta

2.

Ancient Indus Valley

Hindu Kush mountains

Large, central granaries

3.

Ancient China

Yellow and Yangtze Rivers

Silkworms

Explanation:

Ancient Egypt, much like modern-day Egypt, relies on the Nile rivers irrigation to help keep the soil around the river fertile and good for arable farming. It is also home to the Valley of Kings and the pyramids were also built along the Nile.

The ancient Indus Valley civilization is a vast area with the large Indus river flowing through it. This river begins in the Hindu Kush and flows to the Arabian Sea. The river offered good irrigation to grow grains.

One of ancient China’s most valuable exports was silk. They kept the silkworms and people would travel great distances to obtain the silk. This trade route was known as the silk road. This was difficult as China has the Himalayas to its South, the Gobi desert to cross to Europe and an ocean along its Eastern border.
