What Happend in the british tea party

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Boston Tea Party was a political protest that occurred on December 16, 1773, at Griffin's Wharf in Boston, Massachusetts. American colonists, frustrated and angry at Britain for imposing “taxation without representation,” dumped 342 chests of tea, imported by the British East India Company into the harbor

Answer 2

Answer:

Boston Tea Party, (December 16, 1773), incident in which 342 chests of tea belonging to the British East India Company were thrown from ships into Boston Harbor by American patriots disguised as Mohawk Indians. The Americans were protesting both a tax on tea (taxation without representation) and the perceived monopoly of the East India Company.

The Townshend Acts passed by Parliament in 1767 and imposing duties on various products imported into the British colonies had raised such a storm of colonial protest and noncompliance that they were repealed in 1770, saving the duty on tea, which was retained by Parliament to demonstrate its presumed right to raise such colonial revenue without colonial approval. The merchants of Boston circumvented the act by continuing to receive tea smuggled in by Dutch traders. In 1773 Parliament passed a Tea Act designed to aid the financially troubled East India Company by granting it (1) a monopoly on all tea exported to the colonies, (2) an exemption on the export tax, and (3) a “drawback” (refund) on duties owed on certain surplus quantities of tea in its possession. The tea sent to the colonies was to be carried only in East India Company ships and sold only through its own agents, bypassing the independent colonial shippers and merchants. The company thus could sell the tea at a less-than-usual price in either America or Britain; it could undersell anyone else. The perception of monopoly drove the normally conservative colonial merchants into an alliance with radicals led by Samuel Adams and his Sons of Liberty.In such cities as New York, Philadelphia, and Charleston, tea agents resigned or canceled orders, and merchants refused consignments. In Boston, however, the royal governor Thomas Hutchinson determined to uphold the law and maintained that three arriving ships, the Dartmouth, Eleanor, and Beaver, should be allowed to deposit their cargoes and that appropriate duties should be honoured. On the night of December 16, 1773, a group of about 60 men, encouraged by a large crowd of Bostonians, donned blankets and Indian headdresses, marched to Griffin’s wharf, boarded the ships, and dumped the tea chests, valued at £18,000, into the water.In retaliation, Parliament passed the series of punitive measures known in the colonies as the Intolerable Acts, including the Boston Port Bill, which shut off the city’s sea trade pending payment for the destroyed tea. The British government’s efforts to single out Massachusetts for punishment served only to unite the colonies and impel the drift toward war.

The political cartoon above best represents which event in African history?

Answers

Answer:

C. The Berlin Conference held in Germany

Explanation:

In the context of the Industrial Revolution, which was in full steam in Europe during the end of the 19th century, commodity and natural resource-rich Africa started to draw more and more of the world’s attention.

In the late 1800s, representatives from fourteen countries met in Berlin to discuss how to divvy up their competing claims on Africa and its resources. Motivated by their desire to avoid a power struggle amongst themselves, representatives at the Berlin Conference drew colonial boundaries in Africa and decided matters ranging from trade rights to control over major rivers without a single African representative present.

Although many Africans resisted the ensuing colonization of their region, Europeans moved quickly to exploit existing political divisions among the region’s kingdoms and leveraged a distinct advantage: guns. By 1914, European powers controlled almost 90 percent of the continent.

Tariffs and import quotas are mainly used for economic reasons. In what way are they different from embargoes?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

Tariffs and import quotas are mainly used for economic reasons. These are different from embargoes for the following reasons.

In simple terms, a tariff is a tax on every import. For every import that enters the country, you have to pay the due tax. The government decides the percentage to be paid.

The case of quotas refers to the number of goods that can be important. It is not about money or tax, it is a restriction imposed on the number of products that can be imported from a determined country. This makes the imported good be pricy because there is a limited number of them.

The case of the embargo is different. An embargo means that one country cannot trade with another country. For instance, during Barack Obama's administration, the United States imposed a trade embargo on Cuba. There was no trade between the two countries.

It was important to President Thomas Jefferson that this new land was explored to see what type of resources were available. How did President Jefferson go about exploring this new land? Who did he choose? What did they do?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson had been interested in exploring the west well before the 1803 Louisiana Purchase from France. During the 1780's and 1790's, he championed a few failed attempts at such an exploration. Believing the United States needed to expand west to help ensure its survival and prosperity, he jumped at the chance to buy Louisiana from France’s Napoleon Bonaparte. Plans were immediately made to explore the new acquisition and establish American claims to the vast region, an area which effectively doubled the size of the United States. Aside from obvious political reasons, Jefferson, as a child of the Enlightenment ,was an immensely inquisitive individual. The exploration would provide a wealth of information on everything from flora and fauna to geography to the inhabitants.

Observando el mapa ¿que porcentaje corresponde a zonas de proteccion ambiental, ganaderia y agricultura?

Sin embargo, con la idea de ayudarte, podemos comentarte lo siguiente en términos generales deseando que te sirva de algo.

Las zonas de protección ambiental, ganadería y agricultura tienen que ser perfectamente especificadas en los mapas para que la gente y los desarrolladores urbanos las respeten y no quieran pasar por encima de las leyes y edificar construcciones en lugares que están protegidos.

Para ello, las Secretarias de Medio Ambiente o los Departamentos de Conservación de Recursos Naturales, deben estar vigilando constantemente esas zonas protegidas porque de lo contrario, los desarrolladores urbanos comienzan la tala de árboles y la invasión de tierras ecológicamente protegidas.
