The debate takes place in Charleston where people including the lead actor Benjamin Martin, a veteran of the French and Indian war is called support the Continental army. It is stated that other states like Massachusetts and Virginia were at war and the war was for a greater good, i.e. the independence of America. However, the lead actor persists that there are alternatives to war. Haunted by his past war experience and the responsibilities towards his 7 children he denies to be the part of the war against England. 3. How would you characterize the British view of the American colonists (don’t assume rebels)? The British view the American colonists as nobodies. They believe that they had the ultimate power against the colonists. 4. Near the end of the Battle of Yorktown, shortly before he surrendered, the actor playing General Cornwallis stated, “Everything will change…everything has changed.” What does he mean? By that statement he is admitting that he was wrong in thinking how the British had the ultimate power over the colonist and how they could never win the war. He is acknowledging his defeat and the win of the colonists in the war. 5. How did the colonists defeat the British? They defeated the British with strong unity, perseverance and a strategic plan. After Gabriel is taken hostage, Martin entered the continental army to avenge the death of his son. The continental army got support from the French soldiers and they fought the war with tactics they learnt about the British. With all the war that went on, Martin was able to fight Tavington and stab him to death. After Tavington is killed, the British accept their defeat. I have very similar views. The Sons of Liberty could be seen as both mob or patriots. They were mobs for the British but Patriots for Americans. Although the methods they used to revolt were violent, maybe they needed it to achieve the political goals and grab the attention of the British. Had it been a peaceful protest at that time the impact may not have been as powerful as the violent method Sons of Liberty choose

relations between the soviet union and the united states were driven by a complex interplay of ideological, political, and economic factors, which led to shifts between cautious cooperation and often bitter superpower rivalry over the years. the distinct differences in the political systems of the two countries often prevented them from reaching a mutual understanding on key policy issues and even, as in the case of the cuban missile crisis, brought them to the brink of war.

the united states government was initially hostile to the soviet leaders for taking russia out of world war i and was opposed to a state ideologically based on communism. although the united states embarked on a famine relief program in the soviet union in the early 1920s and american businessmen established commercial ties there during the period of the new economic policy (1921–29), the two countries did not establish diplomatic relations until 1933. by that time, the totalitarian nature of joseph stalin's regime presented an insurmountable obstacle to friendly relations with the west. although world war ii brought the two countries into alliance, based on the common aim of defeating nazi germany, the soviet union's aggressive, antidemocratic policy toward eastern europe had created tensions even before the war ended.
