3 main things- GOLD, GLORY, and GOD. GOLD- the explorers wanted to get natural resources like gold and silvers for both themselves and their countries. GLORY- the explorers wanted to be famous, so they claimed all land they found. this resulted in the glorification of the explorer and their country. GOD- the explorers believed that it was their right and duty to conquer other land and spread Christianity. They thought God had meant for them to do this. Hope this helped! =D


What is the difference between Tory and Whig parties in England?

The Whigs and Tories were British parliamentary groupings before the advent of universal sufferage. The Whigs went on to form the Liberal Party (with others) and the Tories became the Conservative Party. http://www.enotes.com/johnny-tremain/q-and-a/what-difference-between-whigs-tories-28329 said this: The Whigs and Tories were British Political parties that developed in the latter part of the 17th century. The Whigs generally supported constitutional monarchy and the role of the aristocracy, while the Tories supported a stronger monarchy. In the world of colonial and revolutionary America, the Whigs generally supported the patriots and the need for the recognition of self government for the aristocratic families of the colonies. The Whig position was that Englishmen in the colonies should have the same rights as Englishmen at home and thus took offence at the taxes and other abuses of these rights for the colonists. The Tories on the other hand supported a stronger monarchy and believed that the King and Parlaiment had the right to treat the colonies as they chose. They did not believe that the colonists should have the same rights as English citizens did in England. Thus the Tories were generally loyal to the English throne and against the War for Independence.


Why did channon claim appeasement was the right policy what if any evidence did he use to back this claim?

Channon claimed that appeasement was the right policy as it aimed to prevent war and maintain peace in Europe during a time of economic and political instability. He argued that the concessions made to aggressive powers, particularly Nazi Germany, were attempts to buy time for countries to prepare militarily and avoid conflict. Evidence supporting this claim included the lack of immediate military preparedness among European nations and the belief that addressing the grievances of Germany could lead to a more stable and cooperative international environment. However, critics argue that appeasement ultimately emboldened aggressors and failed to prevent World War II.

Why did the American colonies have the right of Englishmen?

The American colonies had the rights of Englishmen because they were established as British settlements and were subject to English law. The colonists considered themselves subjects of the British Crown and believed they were entitled to the same legal protections and civil liberties as those living in England. This principle was rooted in the tradition of English common law and the idea of natural rights, which fueled their expectations for representation and fair treatment. As tensions grew, these rights became a central argument in their quest for independence.
