I believe that the colonies shouldn’t pay for Britain’s economy drop from the French & Indian War because it is very unreasonable that the colonists who were in the brunt of battle must suffer even more just because the mother country is in debt. In contrast, others may believe that the British should be taxing the colonists more because there is nobody else to make up for this loss of money and the colonists should pay their share of the debt anyway. In document one, lines 6-9, written through the

but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!” Henry’s rhetorical questions showed lots of emotions. Thomas Paine’s rhetorical questions also showed lots of emotions too. For an example, when he asked, “Why is it that the enemy have left the New England province, and made these middle ones the seat of war?” This question was meant to make the colonists’ angry with

During the late 16th century and into the 17th century, European nations rapidly colonized the newly discovered Americas. England in particular sent out numerous groups to the eastern coast of North America to two regions. These two regions were known as the Chesapeake and the New England areas. Later, in the late 1700's, these two areas would bond to become one nation. Yet from the very beginnings, both had very separate and unique identities. These differences, though very numerous, spurred from

The Dark Ages “According to their custom the Northmen plundered…and burned the town of Dordrecht…the Northmen, with their boats filled with immense booty, including both men and goods, returned to their own country “(Document 3). This was from a chronicle of articles written by the Anglo Saxons who inhabited great Britain in the 9th century.

Thomas Paine was the most persuasive writer for the American Revolution. He wrote to inspire soldiers under Washington that they can win the war, remain strong and fight for the freedom of their country.. In Paine’s essay, “The Crisis, No. 1,” rhetorical devices that Thomas uses are personification and emotional/logical appeal to compare and contrast victory versus defeat. Paine emphasizes that the struggle for freedom from the British through personification and that it’s important because the

After the French and Indian war ended in 1763, England was in a huge debt. To pay off this debt they had to find a source of income. For the colonist that was bad because it just so happens that they were that source of income. The colonist had to pay unfair taxes and one of the unfair taxes was the Sugar Act. In April of 1764, Prime Minister George Grenville proposed and established the Sugar Act. The proper name for the Sugar Act is the “ American Revenue Act of 1764”. Prior to the Sugar act was

Life in New England was far more robust than in the Chesapeake. While in the Chesapeake, population growth greatly depended on new English immigrants, life in New England essentially revolved around large families. As a result, population growth was far more organic in New England, and moderate natural conditions permitted much longer lifespans for New Englanders. New England’s clean water and colder temperatures stopped the spread of disease and made building settlements easier than in the Chesapeake

Why Was Charles Town Impenetrable to Settle On South Carolina is a triven state in the United States, it has a lot of history to it like having a lot to do in the revolutionary war. It has some of the outstanding neighborhood in America. It seems to be a good vacation spot, well it would surprise people to know that South Carolina was once a place where some settlers were trying to settle on the land, but a couple of things kept the settlers from settling on the rich land. Geography, resources

After the French and Indian war Americans started to sever ties with England. Americans declared independence from England when was the unfair taxation, rights being taken away, military, and religious ideas. This allowed the colonist to break away from England and declare their independence. First, one of the major factors was the taxation of the American people. George Glenville was the prime minister of England. He started the Sugar act of 1764 and the Stamp Act of 1765. These acts would allow
