Chapter 4 presented a turbulent era, marked by social and cultural conflict and imperial warfare, during which the regions of British North America were disparate and without unity. Yet by 1776 %u2014 only thirteen years after the Treaty of Paris ending the Great War for Empire %u2014 thirteen of Britain%u2019s mainland colonies were prepared to unite in a Declaration of Independence. What happened in that intervening time to strengthen and deepen colonists%u2019 sense of common cause? As they drew together to resist imperial authority, what political and cultural resources did they have in common? Using specific and relevant examples, explain the short- and long-term causes, as well as the relevant context that shaped actions toward independence. 2. Consider what you have learned about British North America and the British Atlantic world in Chapters 3, 4, and 5 . The British Empire oversaw dramatic growth and prosperity in its mainland colonies after 1700, but its control of North America unraveled after its decisive triumph in the Great War for Empire. What were the greatest strengths of the British Empire in these years? What were its fatal weaknesses? Describe the patterns of changes in the British Empire using evidence from the text.
