In the text on page 31 it states, “You've come home to fight us who strive for freedom and liberty.” all the work on the ship stopped. The air had suddenly grown warm. I glanced sideways. The soldiers guarding the crates had picked up their guns.” This furthermore proves how the subject could create small squabbles among those who were on opposite side or were believed to be on the opposing side. Many people whether they be on the Rebels or the Loyalist side just fought for what they wanted never hearing out the other side to try and come up with a peaceful resolution but instead they caused battles that made both of the side lose more blood.…

The French and Indian war is for the seven year war. The war was from 1754-1763. It was the North American conflict between Great Britain and France.

The conservative Loyalists had strong intentions of remaining patriotic to Great Britain, but not to the land in which they lived in.

Was it the weaknesses of the Royalists or the strength of their opponents which best explains the outcome of the First Civil by 1646There are several key factors determining why the royalists lost the English civil war in the years 1642 - 1646. The factors that caused their defeat were Cromwell 's talent for warfare and how he displayed it on the battlefield. The factions of the royalist command structure tearing the royalist campaign in two. The formation of the New Model Army. King Charles alienating many possible supporters of him with his decisions leading up to and including the civil war. Propaganda helping the parliamentarian cause during the English civil war. The affect of dual roles as King and Commander in Chief of Royalist forces upon King CharlesThe Formation of the New Model ArmyNeither side really had an advantage when it came to experienced soldiers in the country and both sides were initially commanded by men who gained their rank to their status in society rather than military ability. The New model army was now well organised on a sound basis, drilled, disciplined and administrated in uniform fashion, in complete contrast of a few years ago to the 'Ad Hoc ' (before the English Civil war the army was formed when a problem arose then immediately disbanded when the problem dissolved) arrangements that English armies had before the New Model Armies creation. Throughout March and April 1645 at Windsor the work began on training, preparing and equipping this new and improved Parliamentarian army. At the beginning of May 1645 the army left Windsor to meet the king 's forces in battle. The training had paid off as parliament crushed the king 's forces at Naseby. It differed from other armies in the same conflict in that it was intended as an army capable of deployment anywhere in the country, rather than being tied to a single area or garrison. As such, its soldiers became full-time professionals, rather than part-time militia. Furthermore, its officers…
