that the revolution was inevitable, their views about the transformation were profoundly different. The disagreements between those groups caused violent conflicts with eventually the Bolsheviks making all their opponent parties illegal. After the takeover, the conditions in Petrograd were highly fragile. Reed described the morning after as calm and normal, almost too good to be true. But this was only on the surface and the actual consequences began to emerge soon. “Superficially all was quite: hundreds of thousands of people retired at a prudent hour, got up early and went to work. In Petrograd the streetcars were running, the stores and restaurants were open, theatres going, and exhibition of paintings advertised … All the complex routine
British imposed acts and events against the colonies which put strain on their relationship, which lead to the Revolutionary War. I believe that the Revolutionary War was not avoidable, but only to an extent.
Was the American Revolution inevitable? According to John Adams in 1818, the desire for independence was already in the hearts of Americans long before war broke out in 1775. This was untrue for many loyalists living in the colonies in 1775. However, there was simply nothing the mother country could do to stop her colonies from wanting to move on from its natural state of identity in order to grow into a unique and independent country. To begin with, Richard Bland in his 1766 “An Inquiry Into the Rights of the British Colonies” believed that America should be independent “as to their internal government, of the original Kingdom, but united with her, as to their external policy…”
The American Revolution between Great Britain and the American Colonies was not avoidable. This is because in source a: Legislation bank it shows six acts that were put into place to reduce the high national debt back in Britain. These acts were to collect taxes on anything that was highly used in the colonies and for other services. As you would expect, the colonists were outraged. In source b: Protests in Boston, it shows multiple colonists tar and feathering a British tax collector. The revolution was not avoidable, these pieces of evidence show how this is so. I say this because source a clearly shows why the british put these acts into effect so the colonists were outraged because they should not have been taxed without representation.
Was the American Revolution Inevitable? The question of the inevitability of American Revolution is as interesting as it is complicated. Although it is debatable, the answer to the question above would have to be a resounding “Yes”.
The Boston Tea Party and the Battle of Concord. The Taxation startwd when The French and Indian
War between britain and the american colonies couldn't have been avoided if the colonists had representation in parliament. We start with the French and Indian war, an inevitable war between French and British colonists. The war was inevitable because when a country colonizes a free open world ( except for the Native Americans ) there will be nations ready to colonize as well, this leads to land grabs and fighting. Ending in 1763 after a seven year contention, the British colonists end up losing the land they fought for, the appalachian mountains due to the "Treaty of Paris" which gave the natives their land back. The colonists were furious, what made things worse is when Great Britain raised taxes on the colonizes because the French and Indian
People have a need to be heard, and so they naturally speak louder when their needs are overwhelming until their voice is distinguished from the crowd. On the contrary, the individual who does not speak their opinions boldly already imprisons themselves beneath the comforts of silence. For years, the British Crown unknowingly encouraged the frail beginnings of what would become a great empire. Although, the British did not intend to establish a sovereign sister nation, but rather, expand its realm of commerce and capital through merchant settlers and religious pioneers. From my point of view, a nation has never been so provoked by its oppressors to question sovereignty as the final solution like the United States of America did.
I was always taught that the American Revolution was a tremendous victory over a tyrannical government, as well as a victory in the advancement personal liberty. However, according to Romans 13: 1-7, it seems as though the American Revolution wasn't justified by scripture, nor was it honoring to God. When Paul wrote this letter to the Roman church, he said quite clearly that we should not rebel against authority as a church, and that we should respect it, for they are placed over us because God willed them be. As an American we can get upset at such a claim, because our presupposition has always justified the revolution, but here is how we can overcome that presupposition and understand as well as apply this passage to our day-to-day lives.
The militia men left their mark on the world. Risking their lives, and quality of life for their cause. Inspiring others to do the same. As a result, becoming the American revolution. Their stand became the greatest stand in the world. Effecting countless lives by paving the pathway towards a free
Many people disagree with the British because they put taxes on the colonists. Many people also question whether the American revolution was avoidable. I believe the American Revolution was avoidable. Three reasons why the American revolution could have been avoided were that if both sides hadn’t reacted so violently, if the British had put a reasonable tax,and if the British actually listened to the colonists when they said they did not like the taxes that were put on them.
Even with both the English and the Americans willing to compromise and make deals, it would have been very hard to prevent the War for independence. The American enlightenment, however, could have been stopped. A large majority of Americans wanted independence from England mainly because of the way they were being ruled. Of the Americans that wanted to break away were from many backgrounds, they came from all over the social ladder and from all over the world. If they didn’t all come together to be equal around each other then the War for Independence still would have happened, but the success and growth during and after the war would have never happened. It was never a sure thing whether or not the people would come together to move the
Some of the main causes of the American Revolution are British import taxes, tea act, Boston massacre, and no taxation without representation. The American colonist thought it was unfair for them to be taxed by the British if they did not have a role in parliament. Through many acts and taxed the colonist got more and more angry with the tyrant of a king. A tyrant is similar to a dictator which is unfair and cruel to their people. This all led up to the American Revolution and the colonists freedom from the British king.
The narrative suggests that the war for American independence was not inevitable, that the British Empire could have been saved. Do you agree? At what point during the imperial crisis was peaceful compromise possible?
If someone was to get bullied every day in different ways a fight is bound to happen. This is why the American revolution was absolutely necessary. I believe so because the colonist were pushed around and mistreated by the British, even if the American revolution didn't happen the a war would still be waiting to happen. Things the British did leading up to the war was unacceptable. Even though the British may have a reason it was unfair to the colonist. The British was cruel and unfair.
Ultimately, the French Revolution was inevitable. The people of France were growing increasingly more upset with treatment they received from the upper and royal classes, mainly due to special privileges and weakened punishments for people of aristocratic families. Further fueling the fire, Louis XVI, the reigning king at the time, had recently levied a new land tax to solve France’s financial issues. The nation’s public banded together to eliminate unjust ruling in their country once and for all. The revolution officially began in June 1789 and quickly escalated, with the Storming of the Bastille, the forced release of French prisoners by the public, occurring less than a month later. While members of the government had anticipated an angry mob, the actual amount of people that showed up at the Bastille far surpassed their prediction of about 100. Eventually, civilians were able to barrel their way into the prison and release the seven inmates, all of which were imprisoned by King Louis XVI. The event left approximately 100 military and insurgents dead and marked a huge leap toward the eventual creation of the Republic of France.
