Answer 1

Answer:

Each October the LMHA celebrates two of the Continental Army’s most decisive Revolutionary War victories, the battles of Saratoga and Yorktown. While other Continental Army victories, such as the siege of Boston, were essential to the final defeat of British forces and the recognition of United States of America as an independent, sovereign nation by the British Crown, Saratoga and Yorktown are indisputably considered to be the definitive turning points of the American Revolution in that both resulted in the surrender of significant British forces along with their commanding officers (on October 17, 1777 and October 19, 1781, respectively). For the devotees of lower Manhattan history, these two battles hold special significance. Both General Horatio Gates, the commanding general at the Battle of Saratoga, and Alexander Hamilton, a key aide to General George Washington and the leader the climactic charge against redoubt 10 at the Battle of Yorktown, are buried at the site our ceremony in Trinity Churchyard. We note that while the grave of Alexander Hamilton, well known as the first Secretary of the United States Treasury and a key contributor to the Federalist Papers, has been known to patriots and historians from the day of his burial to the present, that Horatio Gates was left unmarked for almost 200 years; an omission addressed and remedied by the New York State Daughters of the American Revolution. This annual commemorative ceremony, led by the Lower Manhattan Historical Society and its sponsoring member organizations, addresses this gap in the understanding of our city’s contribution to the American Revolution cause. Also buried in Trinity Churchyard and dutifully honored as part of this ceremony is Marinus Willett, a critically important commander at the Battle of Fort Stanwix (a subsidiary battle to Saratoga and a very important post-Revolutionary War New York City politician). Additionally, the Battle of Yorktown is symbolic of the United States of America’s oldest military alliance. Powerful French land forces, commanded by the Comte de Rochambeau, and an equally important and sizable French fleet, commanded by the Comte de Grasse, played a crucial role in the defeat and capitulation of the British army commanded by Lieutenant General Charles Cornwallis. As such, the celebration of this great victory offers us the opportunity to commemorate our friendship with United States of America’s first ally by hosting representatives of the French military and the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

What significance did Northern Europe play in the Renaissance?

Answers

Until the mid 15th century the engine of the renaissance was mostly confined to the Mediterranean. What little permeated into Northern Europe was mostly around the prosperous Hanse ports of Antwerp and Bruge. The Dutch painter Van Eyck is perhaps the most notable Northern figure of this earlier period.

C
A person who wants to change the national anthem
D
A person who does not like God Bless America

Answers

Answer:

C- A person who wants to change the national anthem.

Explanation:

This is because they want the anthem to be easier to sing, so they would likely want to change it to be easier. B is incorrect because to a person who doesnt care about the anthem, they would not care if it was easy or hard to sing. It is not A because someone who likes the anthem would not want it to be easier, they would like it the way it is. Finally, D is wrong because God bless America isnt even the National anthem. It just doesnt make sense.

Answers

Answer:

Alabama and Georgia

Explanation:

The states that were at part of the Confederacy were mostly states that were in the Southeast. As a matter of a fact, the first capital of the Confederacy was Montgomery, Alabama.

Confederate States of America, also known as the Confederacy, was the name given to the government of the 11 Southern states that had seceded from the Union in 1860–1861. Hence option D is correct .

What was Confederate States ?

Until they were defeated in the spring of 1865, the Confederate States of America carried on all the functions of a separate government.

The Northern and Southern regions of the United States had been growing more and more hostile against one another in the decades before 1860. These conflicts produced varying interpretations of the meaning of key provisions of the Constitution and led to a fundamental disagreement concerning the rights of individual states.

The main issue separating the North and the South was slavery, despite the fact that several economic, social, and political reasons would contribute to this interregional conflict.

Since the founding of Slave labour played a significant role in the English colonies' economic development in the 17th century in the American colonies.

1.Sourcing: This rebellion against the Jamestown government was led by Nathaniel Bacon. He also wrote this document to gather support for this rebellion. Given this information, what kind of biases would we expect to find in this document?

2.Corroboration: If you wanted to confirm the truth of these events and accusations that Nathaniel Bacon is referring to in his declaration, what other kinds of historical documents could you analyze?

Answers

Answer:

1. Personal Bias, or opinions because Nathaniel Bacon wrote documents over the rebellion. There could be missing information.

2. Diaries from men fighting with Bacon, and also Government files.

Explanation:

These are the most reliable sources to look at because you might have stories from this that could've been different and others very opinionated.

The kind of biases one would expect to find in this document is known as Personal Bias.

This is because Personal Bias is a type of Bias in which an individual do, act, speak or write things that are considered to be favorable or prejudicial, to his cause or interests.

In this case, given that Nathaniel Bacon led the rebellion, it is expected that the document he wrote will contain personal bias as he would want to write things that favor him when the readers read it.

On the other hand, to confirm the truth of these events and accusations that Nathaniel Bacon is referring to in his declaration, the other kinds of historical documents one could analyze are:

Diaries of those not on the side of rebellion nor the government.Accounts of the government.

This is because the government can't support him through their accounts of the events, except it is the truth.

Also, the account of the person that is not attached to the rebellion nor the government would be considered fairly accurate.

Hence, in this case, it can be concluded that the answer to the first part is "Personal Bias." While the second part is Accounts of events from other people like the government and observers.
