Great Britain and North American colonies engaged in an ideological and propaganda war even before the actual Revolutionary War
began. The Patriots and Loyalists disagreed about independence, King George III rejected the Olive Branch Petition, and the Second
Continental Congress decided to declare independence from Great Britain
Think about the grievances which motivated the Second Continental Congress to make arguments for and declare independence from
Great Britain Provide two specific examples of these grievances and explain them in detail using complete sentences.
Answer:
Richard Penn and Arthur Lee, representing the Continental Congress, present the so-called Olive Branch Petition to the Earl of Dartmouth on September 1, 1775. Britain’s King George III, however, refused to receive the petition, which, written by John Dickinson, appealed directly to the king and expressed hope for reconciliation between the colonies and Great Britain.
Dickinson, who hoped desperately to avoid a final break with Britain, phrased colonial opposition to British policy this way: “Your Majesty’s Ministers, persevering in their measures, and proceeding to open hostilities for enforcing them, have compelled us to arm in our own defence [sic], and have engaged us in a controversy so peculiarly abhorrent to the affections of your still faithful Colonists, that when we consider whom we must oppose in this contest, and if it continues, what may be the consequences, our own particular misfortunes are accounted by us only as parts of our distress.”
By phrasing their discontent this way, Congress attempted to notify the king that American colonists were unhappy with ministerial policy, not his own. They then concluded their plea with a final statement of fidelity to the crown: “That your Majesty may enjoy long and prosperous reign, and that your descendants may govern your Dominions with honour to themselves and happiness to their subjects, is our sincere prayer.”
By July 1776, though, the Declaration of Independence proclaimed something very different: “The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.” In fact, Congress insisted that Thomas Jefferson remove any language from the declaration that implicated the people of Great Britain or their elected representatives in Parliament. The fundamental grounds upon which Americans were taking up arms had shifted. The militia that had fired upon Redcoats at Lexington and Concord in April 1775 had been angry with Parliament, not the king, who they still trusted to desire only good for all of his subjects around the globe. This belief changed after Congress learned that King George refused to so much as receive the Olive Branch Petition.
Do you think America did the right thing by dropping the atomic bomb on Japan? Why or why not?
Answer:
No.
Explanation:
Dropping the bombs on Hiroshima is recognized as a right decision by America for many. Had the bomb not been dropped, the war would have prolonged on, but dropping the bomb cost many lives in Japan and almost destroyed the country. Though the act is considered justifiable for saving lives, it actually destroyed as much as it saved. A surrender would definitely have occurred eventually, if maybe a little later than sooner. But the bomb had been unnecessary. Japan suffered consequences for decades. Besides, the action was not only inhumane, but also racially motivated. For listed reasons, I believe the dropping of the atomic bomb was not quite the right thing to do even though many would argue otherwise

The people living in Iceland today are descendants of the Norse who settled on Iceland, which was uninhabited in the 9th century. How was the Norse able to maintain the settlement of Iceland?
[tex]\huge\mathfrak\fcolorbox{purple}{pink}{Añswer}[/tex]
The land was settled quickly, mainly by Norwegians who may have been fleeing conflict or seeking new land to farm. By 930, the chieftains had established a form of governance, the Althing, making it one of the world's oldest parliaments. Towards the end of the tenth century, Christianity came to Iceland through the influence of the Norwegian king Olaf Tryggvason. During this time, Iceland remained independent, a period known as the Old Commonwealth, and Icelandic historians began to document the nation's history in books referred to as sagas of Icelanders
