Revolution American
How did the French help the Americans during the American Revolution?
Write an essay into the history and mission of my sheet says "You are a French citizen and want the Americans to help fight against britian. Write an essay trying to persuade the U.S. to the other with you."'m basically saying in my essay that we (the French) have helped U.S. during the American Revolution against the British and "should" we. How did the French help the Americans during the American Revolution? And more ideas?
One thing to keep in mind: the French aid came to us because of men like Benjamin Franklin and Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais that King Louis XVI who was in the interest of France to lend a hand. terms of Britain's Louis was the enemy, and the promotion of the rebellion in the colonies has been in a fair to good cause for problems George III.

Major Events That Led to the American Revolution
The road to revolution built slowly over time. Many events fed the growing desire of the thirteen colonies for independence. Following are the major events that led to the Revolution.
1754-1763 – French and Indian War
This war between Britain and France ended with the victorious British deeply in debt and demanding more revenue from the colonies. With the defeat of the French, the colonies became less dependent on Britain for protection.
1763 – Proclamation of 1763
This prohibited settlement beyond the Appalachian Mountains. While Britain did not intend to harm the colonists, many colonists took offense at this order.
1764 – Sugar Act
This act raised revenue by increasing duties on sugar imported from the West Indies.
1764 – Currency Act
Parliament argued that colonial currency had caused a devaluation harmful to British trade. They banned American assemblies from issuing paper bills or bills of credit.
1764 – Committees of Correspondence
Organized by Samuel Adams, these helped spread propaganda and information through letters.
1765 – Quartering Act
Britain ordered that colonists were to house and feed British soldiers if necessary.
1765 – Stamp Act
This required tax stamps on many items and documents including playing cards, newspapers, and marriage licenses. Prime Minister George Grenville stated that this direct tax was intended for the colonies to pay for defense. Previous taxes imposed by Britain had been indirect, or hidden.
1765 – Stamp Act Congress
In 1765, 27 delegates from nine colonies met in New York City and drew up a statement of rights and grievances thereby bringing colonies together in opposition to Britain.
1765 – Sons and Daughters of Liberty
Colonists tried to fight back by imposing non-importation agreements. The Sons of Liberty often took the law into their own hands enforcing these 'agreements' by methods such as tar and feathering.
1767 – Townshend Acts
These taxes were imposed to help make the colonial officials independent of the colonists and included duties on glass, paper, and tea. Smugglers increased their activities to avoid the tax leading to more troops in Boston.
1770 – Boston Massacre
The colonists and British soldiers openly clashed in Boston. This event was used as an example of British cruelty despite questions about how it actually occurred.
1773 – Tea Act
To assist the failing British East India Company, the Company was given a monopoly to trade tea in America.
1773 – Boston Tea Party
A group of colonists disguised as Indians dumped tea overboard from three ships in Boston Harbor.
1774 – Intolerable Acts
These were passed in response to the Boston Tea Party and placed restrictions on the colonists including outlawing town meetings and the closing of Boston Harbor.
1774 – First Continental Congress
In response to the Intolerable Acts, 12 of the 13 colonies met in Philadelphia from September-October, 1774. One of the main results of this was the creation of The Association calling for a boycott of British goods.
1775 – Lexington and Concord
In April, British troops were ordered to Lexington and Concord to seize stores of colonial gunpowder and to capture Samuel Adams and John Hancock. At Lexington, open conflict occurred and eight Americans were killed. At Concord, the British troops were forced to retreat with the loss of 70 men. This was the first instance of open warfare.
1775 – Second Continental Congress
All 13 colonies were represented at this meeting in Philadelphia beginning May. The colonists still hoped that their grievances would be met by King George III. George Washington was named head of the Continental Army.
1775 – Bunker Hill
This major victory for the Colonists resulted in George III proclaiming the colonies in rebellion.
In the end, the American Revolution grew out of increasing restrictions placed upon the colonies by the British. One interesting side note: It is estimated that only one-third of the colonists were in favor of rebellion. One-third continued to side with the British. The last third were neutral concerning the rebellion and break from Great Britain.
hahah if your happy with that country as it is now, you are sick. you need help! them people are there because if they didnt go they would have been killed! iran is a zorastrian race, you fucking arabs came along and fucked it up. PRICK
Finland, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden practice a form of Democratic Socialism. This basically means that the country controls or influences certain parts of the economy either through regulation, or just owning certain industries. They also engage in higher taxation policy that allows them to provide social services such as education, welfare, health care, utilities, daycare as well as a bunch of others.
