Who was William Bradford  ?

On March 19, 1590, William Bradford was baptized in Austerfield, West Riding, Yorkshire, where he was born to Alice Hanson and William Bradford. The family was wealthy and well-known, and they owned a sizable farm.

According to historian George J. Hill, Bradford's grandpa was William Bradford, who was likely of aristocratic descent and had at least four children, including Bradford's father.

Many family fatalities occurred throughout Bradford's formative years. At the time of his father's passing, he had just turned one. He was transferred to live with his grandfather when he was four years old since his mother remarried.

He moved back in with his mother and stepfather after his grandfather passed away two years prior. In 1597, a year after his mother's passing,

Choose one of the basic rights from the First Amendment. How would you feel if your government no longer guaranteed this?

Answers

Answer:

The freedom of speech

Explanation:

If the freedom were to be stripped from the citizens in the United States, I would be extremely angry. This country was built upon the idea that citizens should be guaranteed the ability to speak freely, and say whatever they please without fear of the government's intervention. This is why many are allowed to speak out against the government and speak up when they disagree with a bill or act. If this ability was taken away, Americans would no longer be free in almost every other aspect of the first amendment as well. The freedoms to assemble and petition both also have to do with speaking out against the government, and therefore would be restricted as well if the freedom of speech were to be taken away.

What was some of the complaint the colonist had during the intolerable Acts?

Answers

The Intolerable Acts were laws that were set by Great Britain onto the colonists, after the Boston Tea Party. These laws were essentially punishments for the colonists trying to rebel and act out on Great Britain. These acts are known for being very harsh on the colonists. Many of the colonists thought they were unfair and these laws started to push them closer to revolution.

The Boston Port Act was just one law under the Intolerable Acts and it closed the Boston port until the colonists had paid for all of the tea they had dumped in the harbor during the Boston Tea Party. Since the port was closed so tightly, only wood and food could go through the port, not even hay for horses. This was a major complaint from colonists, as they felt it was unfair that all of Boston was paying for what a couple of people had done.

The Quartering Act was another law under the Intolerable Acts and it made it so the colonists were forced to house British soldiers if needed. This really angered the colonists, as they wanted to keep their distance from the British troops. This distance was now tarnished, as they were forced to house them, even cooking for them and washing their clothes. Since this was such a major complaint by the colonists, they assured that this would never happen again by creating the Third Amendment, which prohibits soldiers from being quartered in homes without consent.

The colonists had many complaints about the Intolerable Acts, these are just a few. They despised these acts and deemed them to be entirely unfair and once again believed that Great Britain was abusing their power.

Given what you have learned, what alternatives do you think Chamberlain might have had? Could he have negotiated a stronger peace treaty with someone like Hitler? Should he have refused to negotiate at all? - discuss​

Answers

Answer:

Chamberlain did what he could (should not have done it in any other way).

Explanation:

Chamberlain in his position as UK Prime Minister, going to such events as the Munich Conference, Germany was prepared for both options if Hitler refused or not. Hitler only agreed to stall time and his preparations for Czechoslovakia were already underway. If Chamberlain demanded better terms then Hitler would most likely refuse to sign it. It is possible if Britain and France had said something about the Remilitarization of the Rhineland then Hitler would have stopped these moves of aggression. Obviously, this move was a huge gamble for Hitler that paid off since France and Britain lacked the knowledge of a semi-weak Germany; instead, they saw legions of soldiers marching into the Rhineland fearing another war would come. If Chamberlain refused to negotiate, then that throws diplomacy right out the window and both Britain and France did not want to start another war so that is out of the question.
