The historical significance of salutary/benign neglectis: the colonists ended up learning that they didn't always need to obey English law and began to govern themselves while England was busy with the French and Indian War (a 7 year war) > so basically: for 7 years the colonies were on their own and doing pretty well > BUT!! > when the French and Indian War was finally over, England turned its attention back to the colonies > first order of business: in reaction to an Indian rebellion against the colonists moving westward, the British government established the Proclamation Act > the colonists resented the act > AND!! > because of England's war debt, the British taxed them!! > For instance, the Stamp Act > this act also was resented by colonists, and protested: "no taxation without representation" seeing as Parliament was taxing them without their consent, and the Sons of Liberty was formed - impatient to wait for repeal, they turned violent against colonial stamp distributors > then there was the Tea Act > in response: the Sons of Liberty dumped tea into the harbor, an event known as the Boston Tea Party > this event provoked England to pass the Intolerable Acts to force the colonies to behave > However it had had the opposite affect > the colonists were more determined to defend their rights > and afraid that the colonies were moving toward independence - thus began the American Revolution in 1775 > during revolution, the 2nd Continental Congress met and attempted to negotiate with England > they sent George III the Olive Branch Petition > However!!> George III refused to even read it!! > some say that the colonists might have stayed in the British Empire if they just had listened > but instead - by mid-1776 - the colonies were ready to formally declare their Independence > before the declaration however, Thomas Paine's Common Sense appeared

What is the value of a 1950 US 5 dollar bill with a yellow seal?
Yellow and brown seals were used on special 1934-series $5 bills printed for use in Hawaii and North Africa during WWII, but all 1950-series $5 bills should have the familiar green Federal Reserve seal. If your bill's date is 1950 the seal color could have been altered by exposure to chemicals. Even something as relatively benign as laundry detergents have been known to cause color changes. That alteration would be considered post-printing damage. However 1950-series $5 bills are only worth $5 to $7 undamaged, so your loss would be minimal.
Why did Americans want George Washington to be president?
George Washington was a very tall imposing figure and survived many dangerous French and Indian and Revolutionary War battles without a single wound, so he had a kind of superhero aura around him. More practically, he did not have any well known political beliefs or any scandals, so he was a fairly benign choice for president.
What arguments might Europeans use to justify their colonization of the New World?
They used the colonies to expand there reach as a world power. Most of the European countries used there colonies to provide resources for there own development. If your asking how they justified it from a moral standpoint, they had no one but each other to answer to so they did not justify the creation of colonies and most would not have cared to anyway. But the final answer would be they created colonies to expand there power. Colonial expansion has shaped the world into the form we have now. this ^^^ is wrong... although i do not know the right answer i am aware that europeans DID have other countries to answer to. they invaded Africa and parts of china to colonize they did colonize there to obviously expand and gain power.... and FYI they werent the only country to be colonizing on Africa and china at the time everyone was trying to "get a piece of the pie"....... -Dalton, 15 California i just needed to know the answer but i found it
