To add, a Treasury bond (T-Bond) is a marketable,
fixed-interest U.S. government debt security with a maturity of more than 10 years. Treasury

An Order-in-Council signed by King George III on July 20, 1764, said that the boundary between New Hampshire and New York is the west bank of the river. The order was intended to settle a dispute between New York and New Hampshire in which each claimed the territory that later became the state of Vermont. The disputed territory had been governed for 15 years as a de facto part of New Hampshire, but the king's order awarded it to New York. On January 15, 1777, Vermont issued its declaration of independence, creating the independent Vermont Republic. On August 20 and 21, 1781, Congress expressed conditions that must be met before the then-still unrecognized but de facto independent state could be admitted into the Union. Among the conditions was that Vermont must give up its claims to territory east of the river. On February 22, 1782, Vermont's legislature complied, and the Supreme Court's opinion in 1933 cited that act.
Running away or fleeing, feigning as though sick and sabotaging the property of the slave holders are some acts of resistance. Slavery existed in the southern states and it had taken a toll on the younger men who were made slaves and hired to any plantations or run errands for their owners. Slaves would flee to north but was not easy. If they were caught, they were given death penalty too.
Pretending to be sick is mostly practiced by women slaves. They were permitted by their owners in order to save their child bearing capacity.
Incapacitating or damaging the property of the slave holders is another form of resistance which annoyed their owners.
Throughout history, Vietnam was
not totally free from China’s power and dynamism, having been under Chinese
domination for different, interrupted time periods, the earliest being in 111 BC.
Being a strategic southern territory, the Chinese used now-Vietnamese territory
to launch expeditions to Southeast Asian states. The last Chinese occupation of
Vietnam ended in 1427, with the Chinese Ming Dynasty accepting Vietnam as an
independent, yet tributary state.
