What impact did imperialism have on societies?
Imperialism had both positive and negative effects. Great Britain had captured and colonized most land in India and Africa. These places tried to defend but the British armies had stronger weapons. They tried to convert the places they captured, to Christianity. The British took advantage of the natives because they knew they could. Because the British were so harsh to the africans, they never fully recovered therefore causing them to become a third world country. While the Indians gained back land little by little and got stronger.

What were the results of the first three battles of the American Revolution?
I think Saratoga was one and that was when the British General John Burgoyne Surrendered to patriot forces at Saratoga on October 17, 1777. 5,000 British Red Coats had to surrender. That one group had 1/4 men as the entire Continental army. That means the Continental army had no more than 20,000 soldiers while the redcoats had 50,000. Then the battle of Brandywine creek happened on September 11, 1777. That was when the British captured the city of Philadelphia on September 26. The British were forced to retreat while 960 men of 1,100 had been wounded captured or killed. In the battle of Yorktown, the British were forced to surrender, and the colonists had gained independence.
