The Native Americans naturally sided with the French as they had formed a stronger connection through trade. This alliance was not enough and the British were victorious with assistance from their colonies. The result of this war was the colonies wanting to split away from the rule

colonies. These, along with the Republican ideology, and the Boston Tea Party, all led to the American Revolution. The French and Indian War marked Britain’s dominance to world power, but the war resulted in a huge debt to the British government. The Englishmen believed that the colonies were just subordinates which could be used and exploited in the best interests of the British government.

These women were known for meeting and discussing the women’s rights abuses in the United States, however, it was time for them to finally place their resolutions on a declaration for rights that clearly mimics the style of the Declaration of Independence.

And when it comes to the executions, he does not act the way Donovan does. For instance, when Donovan is about to shoot Hawkin, Bonaparte begins to pray and closes his eyes so as not to see his friend die

Okonkwo was so furious, “His machete descended twice”, he had killed one of the Englishmen in his clan.(204) This was the breaking point. Okonkwo had lost hope that Umuofia would return to the way it was. Killing the Englishmen was the final fatal error. Right after the killing, Okonkwo killed himself.
