Question

what gave the patriots a military advantage over the british during the revolutionary war?
a. the patriots had access to more money.
b. the british military was made up of volunteers.
c. the british relied too heavily on slave labor.
d. the patriots were more familiar with the land where they were fighting.

Explanation:

The Patriots were fighting on their home - soil, so they knew the local terrain, hiding spots, and shortcuts. This local knowledge gave them an edge in military operations. The British, being from overseas, did not have this familiarity. The British had more money and resources, their military was not made up of volunteers, and their reliance on slave labor was not a factor in the Patriots' military advantage.

Answer:

D. The Patriots were more familiar with the land where they were fighting.
