which of the following was a result of the french and indian war

Answers

Answer:

Consecuencias

Durante la guerra, Francia perdió el control sobre todas sus posesiones canadienses, lo que fue ratificado por el Tratado de París. Perdió por tanto todas sus colonias al este del Misisipi, salvo Saint Pierre y Miquelon, dos islas cerca de Terranova. En el Caribe, solo mantuvo las islas de Guadalupe y Martinica. España no salió muy mal parada ya que recibió Luisiana en compensación por la pérdida de Florida37​ y también recuperó La Habana.36​

Gran Bretaña había sido, claramente el gran vencedor del conflicto, consiguiendo dominar toda la costa este de Norteamérica y eliminando un imperio colonial rival que le impedía extenderse hacia el interior. También ganó importancia en las aguas caribeñas gracias a las numerosas plazas ganadas a los franceses.

A Gran Bretaña se le planteó el problema de cómo gobernar la Provincia de Quebec, habitada por católicos francófonos, contra los cuales tenían leyes en la metrópoli. El rey de Francia, temeroso de represalias contra sus ciudadanos, consiguió incluir en el Tratado de París algunas cláusulas por las cuales los británicos debían respetar sus costumbres y religión.

Militarmente, Gran Bretaña se convirtió en la mayor potencia mundial, tanto en tierra como en el mar. Comenzó tras la guerra de los Siete Años un siglo de predominio británico en todo el mundo, con un Imperio que abarcaba gran parte de Norteamérica, casi un tercio de África y la India, poseyendo una Armada capaz de mantener y proteger todas sus tierras. Francia entró en una etapa de decadencia militar de la que le costó salir.

Económicamente la guerra fue desastrosa para ambas partes. Las deudas públicas en los dos países amenazaban con llevar a la bancarrota a la Hacienda pública. Ambos reaccionaron subiendo los impuestos enormemente. La diferencia fue que Gran Bretaña los aplicó a los colonos norteamericanos y Francia, habiendo perdido sus colonias tuvo que gravar la vida de sus ciudadanos. Fueron notables los impuestos sobre el comercio del té y la ley del Timbre.

Por otro lado la expulsión de los acadianos de Nova Scotia provocó una migración de estos hacia las otras posesiones francesas al oeste del Misisipi creyendo que éstas volverían pronto a ser francesas y que la dominación española sería temporal. Surgió así la población cajún en los alrededores de Nueva Orleans.38​

Por último, y no tan directamente, esta guerra pudo llevar a la Revolución de las colonias contra la dominación británica. Como ya se comentó antes, Gran Bretaña impuso a sus colonias unos desorbitados impuestos que ahogaban su economía, lo que llevó entre otros, al motín del Té.39​ Además, como ya predijeron tanto británicos como franceses durante e inmediatamente después de la guerra franco-india, al perder los colonos a la única potencia vecina capaz de vencerlos ya no necesitaban del ejército británico para defenderse. Los únicos enemigos a los que se tenían que enfrentar eran a los nativos, a los que hasta el momento habían conseguido doblegar. Inglaterra había forzado a muchos colonos a participar activamente en la guerra por lo que en las colonias vivían numerosos veteranos que sabían aplicar las tácticas de guerra y que, aún más importante, habían descubierto que eran capaces de vencer a ejércitos mayores.

Explanation:

Why is Article #11 in the Articles of Confederation not as important as the other articles?

Answers

Establishing both the means by which a new state could enter the "union" on equal footing, and an attempt for military security, Article 11 specifically targets one issue in a way that no other article does.  Annexing Canada and formally absorbing it into the folds of the United States would have increased the power of the U.S. tremendously. The inclusion of Canada in the union would significantly increase the U.S. resources of land, people, types of industry, and available ports. It would increase the tax base of Congress as well as contribute its valuable resources to the overall economic good of the U.S. Furthermore, the annexation of Canada would help to significantly eliminate the biggest threat to American Independence: the presence of Great Britain on the North American continent.  If Canada had overthrown British rule in the 1780s and joined the United States as a sovereign state, the British would have had no further holdings of land in North America. However, after the war, the British continued to violate the Treaty of Paris by maintaining forts in the western territory of the United States. The British controlled the Great Lakes, which bordered the U.S. and Canada and the St. Lawrence River, thereby giving them powerful control over trade in the interior of North America. The United States aimed to eliminate the presence of as many of its competitors as possible. Unfortunately, Canada had no interest in joining the United States and remained a British colony. The British presence north and west of the United States continued to be a problem, and eventually led to the War of 1812.

What this Article did accomplish, however, was to establish the precedent by which new states would be absorbed into the union. With this precedent, rather than representing a governing body with fixed limits, the United States would be able to expand and absorb sovereign states on an equal basis, instead of as colonies. This idea was later put into practice in Thomas Jefferson's Land Ordinance of 1784, which provided new states with the same right to self-governance and representation in congress as those enjoyed by older states.

A)Label the three colonial geographical regions on the map.





B)Which geographic region seems to have the most land? Which region has the least amount of land?



C)How might this have impacted what kinds of settlements formed where? For example, which colonial region do you think would have more cities, which would have more rural areas? Why?)

Answers

Answer:

Check explanation.

Explanation:

A) I'm assuming you're talking about the British colonies (13 colonies). When describing these regions, there are three key words to know. The New England colonies, the Middle colonies, and the Southern colonies. If you need more elaboration, just comment.

B) The South probably seems like it had the most land. as it needed the land for slaves to work on plantations. This transition to slavery from indentured servants was primarily caused by Bacon's rebellion, in which indentured servants rose up against landowners. For more elaboration, look up Bacon's rebellion. When looking at the map, the Northern Colonies probably had the least amount of land as it did not have the plantations and the need for land was limited. This answer is elaborated on C.

C) The amount of land impacted what kinds of settlements formed, as seen from the colonists' perspective, more land means more farming land while less land is less suitable to farming but instead subsistence farming. The amount of land also impacted which colonial region would have more cities or more rural areas as less land means it would be in a sense more urban, while more widespread land would be more rural. The divide between the two regions would later be found in the American Civil War, in which the North had more industry and cities while the South was more widespread as it did not need the urban cities like the North. Contrary to the question though, I feel like the weather/climate played a much bigger role than the amount of land each region had.

The island of Taiwan experienced a name change shortly after the 1949 Communist revolution, it was formerly called- Question 10 options: Democratic Republic of China Thailand Formosa Hong Kong

Answers

Answer:

Formosa

Explanation:

I got the answer wrong and told me it was that!

The correct option is C. The island of Taiwan experienced a name change shortly after the 1949 Communist revolution, it was formerly called Formosa .

Taiwan was only recognized as the Republic of Formosa for a mere five short months, despite the fact that it had been called Formosa for millennia.

Why is Taiwan also called the Republic of China?

Taiwan was governed by the ROC after the Allies' victory over the Japanese during World War II. The Chinese Communists defeated the Nationalists in a conflict in 1949. The People's Republic of China was founded by them. The Nationalists arrived in Taiwan after departing from China's mainland.

The island of Taiwan continues to go by a number of names, each originating from explorers or kings who lived during a specific historical era. When Portuguese sailors discovered an unexplored island in 1542, they gave it the name Ilha Formosa and documented it on their charts.

The right answer is C. Taiwan was once known as Formosa; the name was changed shortly after the Communist revolution of 1949.

The 19th amendment legally guarantees American women the right to vote. Achieving this milestone required a lengthy and difficult struggle—victory took decades of agitation and protest. Beginning in the mid-19th century, several generations of woman suffrage supporters lectured, wrote, marched, lobbied, and practiced civil disobedience to achieve what many Americans considered a radical change of the Constitution. Few early supporters lived to see final victory in 1920.
