The Pros And Cons Of War

Also, a lot of people died in both the bombing of NAgasaki and Hiroshima.

Therefore, the bomb was an awful solution to an almost solved

The Sons of Liberty were the organizers of many of these early demonstrations. They used intimidation and physical abuse, like tar and feathering, to force the resignation of several British tax collectors. An iconic act of colonial resistance, the burning of the Gaspee, a British patrol ship, in 1772 rekindled the flame of public rebellion after the calm that followed the Boston Massacre. While the Boston Tea Party is more well known, the burning of the Gaspee presented a more unified colonial opinion against Britain while the Tea Party left some divided. The final act of resistance, before official war, was the battle at Lexington and Concord in 1775.

“The Declaration changed forever the meaning of American freedom” (Foner 2014 pg. 197). The Declaration started the fight for Independence and to get out from under the King. Also the document made the thirteen colonies come together and fight for their independence. During the submission of the Declaration there was a war already going on between England and the colonies from enormous taxes without the colonist approving of them, housing England soldiers without a choice.

Vincenzo Gioberti believed that the Italian states should remain the same and not unify to become one nation. This is because having all the princes remain separate keeps that state strong but also allows them to maintain some freedom. With this freedom maintained he believed that disruptive civil like wars wouldn’t happen, and that it would make foreign invasion even harder. Daniele Manin also believed that Italy shouldn’t unit but for a completely different reason. His thought was that the people of Italy have been separated so long that they have developed different customs, cultures, and traditions.

Nearly 10,000 French army officers and aristocrats (nobles) were ready to join the foreign invasion (Doc C). France was facing a real crisis with only two years into the revolution. The Reign of Terror was bloody, but it clarified the goals of all French citizens- join the army, protect the revolution, and resist the return to feudalism and the Old Regime. The map addresses that France had external threats, in August 1792, 80,000 Austrian and Prussian armies were marching towards France to suppresses the French Revolution. That was not the only problem France had though, they also had internal troubles, 10,000 French army officers and aristocrats had moved to the Austrian-controlled Netherlands to form armies and they allied themselves with France’s foreign enemies.

The pueblo revolt was something that took place so quickly. The pueblos felt as if they were being used and decided to rebel against the Spanish. Before the pueblo revolt there was some other issues in history that lead up to this event. The American Revolution in 1776 was not a first war in America that fought for freedom, but before the American Revolution, there was another revolutionary war that fought for the same reasons.

The American Revolution arose from the escalating conflict between the thirteen colonies and their mother country, Great Britain. This uprising took place between 1775 and 1783. By the end of the war, the thirteen colonies, in victory, had gained their independence from Britain and were to be called the United States of America. Some argue that the increasing debt of the British Empire, aided the Americans’ win in the Revolutionary war the most. However the different battle tactics used by the colonial militia and intervention of other countries like France played a role on a much larger scale in the result of America’s victory.

There are a lot of turning point that led to the revolutionary war. Every act that the king signed and put intoto effect plus the actions of the red coats fueled the colonies motivation to start a revolution . The four major reasons were the stamp act, Tea act ,common sense by Thomas paine, declaration of independence The stamp act 1765 was the first direct tax put on the British colonies in North America (DOC.A). The colonies were not fond of the stamp act they had no say in what the tax should be on nor what it should be spent on.

In response to England losing money due to smuggling, Thomas Miller, a proprietary leader, formed a militia to enforce the trade laws and to arrest any colonists caught breaking them. Miller abused his power and issued faulty arrests until John Culpepper, the leader of the rising antiproprietary movement, lead “Culpepper’s Rebellion” in 1677. This non-violent rebellion raided county records, oversaw the arrest of Miller, and successfully ensured Culpepper elected as customs collector. Culpepper was tried in England for treason, but the Proprietors defended him; because if he was convicted, they would prove unfit to rule North Carolina and their charter would be lost. The “rebellion” ended when Culpepper was acquitted on the grounds that there was no standing government, so there could not have been a revolt.

This showed both sides that they were up against an almost equal force and it would be extremely hard to beat the enemy in this war. In the end of this battle 8 miniet men lay dead on the ground and about 50 British soldiers died at the same time.

On both sides bombings and strikes were made on centers of production, transportation routes, and other facilities causing a great deal of harm to the civilian population. By the end of the war over 50,000,000 civilians had become casualties of war. The destruction
