Answer:

Escalations began shortly after the end of the French and Indian War —known elsewhere as the Seven Years War in 1763. Here are a few of the pivotal moments that led to the American Revolution. 1. The Stamp Act (March 1765)

Explanation:

The Boston Massacre was a confrontation on March 5, 1770, in which British soldiers shot and killed several people while being harassed by a mob in Boston. The event was heavily publicized by leading Patriots such as Paul Revere and Samuel Adams. British troops had been stationed in the Province of Massachusetts Bay since 1768 in order to support crown-appointed officials and to enforce unpopular Parliamentary legislation. Amid tense relations between the civilians and the soldiers, a mob formed around a British sentry and verbally abused him. He was eventually supported by seven additional soldiers, led by Captain Thomas Preston, who were hit by clubs, stones, and snowballs. Eventually, one soldier fired, prompting the others to fire without an order by Preston. The gunfire instantly killed three people and wounded eight others, two of whom later died of their wounds. The crowd eventually dispersed after Acting Governor Thomas Hutchinson promised an inquiry, but they re-formed the next day, prompting the withdrawal of the troops to Castle Island. Eight soldiers, one officer, and four civilians were arrested and charged with murder, and they were defended by future U.S. President John Adams. Six of the soldiers were acquitted; the other two were convicted of manslaughter and given reduced sentences. The two found guilty of manslaughter were sentenced to branding on their hand. Depictions, reports, and propaganda about the event heightened tensions throughout the Thirteen Colonies, notably the colored engraving produced by Paul Revere.

Boston Tea Party, (December 16, 1773), incident in which 342 chests of tea belonging to the British East India Company were thrown from ships into Boston Harbor by American patriots disguised as Mohawk Indians. The Americans were protesting both a tax on tea (taxation without representation) and the perceived monopoly of the East India Company

Evaluate the extent to which the gilded age reformers were successful?
solniwko [45]
The Gilded Age displayed considerable amounts of foul play ineconomic exploitation, political corruption, and unethical business practices. Many people who saw the unlawful ways of the rich and powerful took action to better the American society. Many reformers of the Gilded age were successful in bringing the change they desired; the reforms are still in effect to this day in our country, working to protect American citizens from unfair business practices that concentrated economic power, subjected workers to horrific labor <span>conditions, and outcasted the mentally ill.  That probably doesn´t answer your question at all, but I tried.</span>

Nata [24]

Kersaint and Saint-Maurice's arguments were different from that of the nationalists because:

  • The nationalists argued that only the people that were born in the nation and had a shared history were to be regarded as citizens within the country.

<h3>Who were the nationalists?</h3>

These group of people were those that were regarded as the free men of color. They wanted a country were people would be free and have same rights.

The country of Haiti was under the colonization of the French at the time. Kersaints wanted the black to have their freedom only after they had met with certain conditions.

Saint Maurice on the other hand wanted the people to have equal rights and freedom . He wanted a situation where no body would be under the mercy of another.
