Question

question 24
how were native americans east of the mississippi river impacted by the american revolution?

• these native americans were integrated into the new congress established by the articles of confederation, being allowed two representatives
• the americans, realizing their weakness as a new nation, granted native americans an independent territory in what is now modern illinois and wisconsin
• the british did not live up to their promises, ceding native lands to the americans in the peace treaty
• all of these

most modern americans have a vague understanding that the american revolution of the 1770s/80s was caused by american colonists not appreciating the taxes and restrictions imposed by the british in the 1760s/70s. however, a series of taxes and restrictions (collectively called the navigation acts) were enacted by the british in the last half of the 1600s. what was different about these earlier laws than those that led to the american revolution? select all that apply.

• the earlier laws only applied to british citizens, not american colonists
• the earlier laws only applied to the southern states of virginia, north carolina, and south carolina (which did not conduct much maritime trade, thus minimizing the impact of the laws)
• the earlier laws were not enforced very much
• the earlier laws were imposed by parliament, which at the time had american representatives
