Answer:
Each October the LMHA celebrates two of the Continental Army’s most decisive Revolutionary War victories, the battles of Saratoga and Yorktown. While other Continental Army victories, such as the siege of Boston, were essential to the final defeat of British forces and the recognition of United States of America as an independent, sovereign nation by the British Crown, Saratoga and Yorktown are indisputably considered to be the definitive turning points of the American Revolution in that both resulted in the surrender of significant British forces along with their commanding officers (on October 17, 1777 and October 19, 1781, respectively). For the devotees of lower Manhattan history, these two battles hold special significance. Both General Horatio Gates, the commanding general at the Battle of Saratoga, and Alexander Hamilton, a key aide to General George Washington and the leader the climactic charge against redoubt 10 at the Battle of Yorktown, are buried at the site our ceremony in Trinity Churchyard. We note that while the grave of Alexander Hamilton, well known as the first Secretary of the United States Treasury and a key contributor to the Federalist Papers, has been known to patriots and historians from the day of his burial to the present, that Horatio Gates was left unmarked for almost 200 years; an omission addressed and remedied by the New York State Daughters of the American Revolution. This annual commemorative ceremony, led by the Lower Manhattan Historical Society and its sponsoring member organizations, addresses this gap in the understanding of our city’s contribution to the American Revolution cause. Also buried in Trinity Churchyard and dutifully honored as part of this ceremony is Marinus Willett, a critically important commander at the Battle of Fort Stanwix (a subsidiary battle to Saratoga and a very important post-Revolutionary War New York City politician). Additionally, the Battle of Yorktown is symbolic of the United States of America’s oldest military alliance. Powerful French land forces, commanded by the Comte de Rochambeau, and an equally important and sizable French fleet, commanded by the Comte de Grasse, played a crucial role in the defeat and capitulation of the British army commanded by Lieutenant General Charles Cornwallis. As such, the celebration of this great victory offers us the opportunity to commemorate our friendship with United States of America’s first ally by hosting representatives of the French military and the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

In the 1760s, many English colonists of North America reacted to imperial governance by:
1) Opposing restrictions of religious worship
2) Protesting a lack of representation in Parliament
3) Refusing to adopt the English legal system
4) Demanding independence from England
Please help!!!
Answer:
2) Protesting a lack of representation in Parliament
Explanation:
During this time period, the British Empire began to assert more influence in the American Colonies. It wanted a tighter political control over the colonies, and it also raised taxes on them.
The colonists, who were used to lower taxes, and a great degree of independence, were outraged. They demanded "no taxation without representation", meaning that no laws affected them should be decreed in the British Parliament without representation from the American Colonies.
In the 1760s, many English colonists of North America reacted to imperial governance by protesting a lack of representation in Parliament.
Colonists did not have any participation in Parliament as they were part of colonies.According to the British, colonies were established to support the Mother country by supplying raw materials, etc.Colonies were asked to pay taxes without any approval from colonists.Colonies form their self-governance in America as the House of Burgesses.Therefore we can conclude that English colonists of North America were angry without having representation in Parliament.
Thus option 2. is the correct answer.

1. Explain 2 motivations for US imperialism
2. What were the causes of the Spanish American War?
3. What territories did we gain from the Spanish American War? How did it change America's role in the world?
Answer:
1. Various motives prompt empires to seek to expand their rule over other countries or territories. These include economic, exploratory, ethnocentric, political, and religious motives. ... Imperial powers often competed with each over for the best potential resources, markets, and trade.
2. The reasons for war were many, but there were two immediate ones: America's support the ongoing struggle by Cubans and Filipinos against Spanish rule, and the mysterious explosion of the battleship U.S.S. Maine in Havana Harbor.
3. Representatives of Spain and the United States signed a peace treaty in Paris on December 10, 1898, which established the independence of Cuba, ceded Puerto Rico and Guam to the United States, and allowed the victorious power to purchase the Philippines Islands from Spain for $20 million. U.S. victory in the war produced a peace treaty that compelled the Spanish to relinquish claims on Cuba, and to cede sovereignty over Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines to the United States. The United States also annexed the independent state of Hawaii during the conflict.
