WILL GIVE BRAINIEST!!!!! Why did Charles VI issue a rule that women could inherit Hapsburg lands?

Answers

Answer 1
Charles and his wife Elizabeth Christine had not had children, since 1711, Charles had been the sole surviving male member of the House of Habsburg. Charles's older brother, Joseph I, had died without male issue, leaving Joseph's daughter Maria Josepha as the heir presumptive. That presented two problems. First, a prior agreement with his brother, known as the Mutual Pact of Succession, had agreed that in the absence of male heirs, Joseph's daughters would take precedence over Charles's daughters in all Habsburg lands. Though Charles had no children, if he were to be survived by daughters alone, they would be cut out of the inheritance. Secondly, because Salic law precluded female inheritance, Charles VI needed to take extraordinary measures to avoid a protracted succession dispute, as other claimants would have surely contested a female inheritance. Charles VI was definitely succeeded by his own elder daughter, Maria Theresa (born 1717). However, despite the promulgation of the Pragmatic Sanction, her accession in 1740 resulted in the outbreak of the War of the Austrian Succession as Charles-Albert of Bavaria, backed by France, contested her inheritance. After the war, Maria Theresa's inheritance of the Habsburg lands was confirmed by the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle, and the election of her husband, Francis I, as Holy Roman Emperor was secured by the Treaty of Füssen.

Answers

Answer:

The four laws that were passed in the Intolerable Acts were the Boston Port Act, the Massachusetts Government Act, the Impartial Administration of Justice Act and the Quartering Act. It was known as the Coercive Act in Great Britain, and it was passed by the British Parliament and was signed into law by King George in 1774.

The Impartial Administration of Justice Act stated that any British officer accused of a major crime would be tried in Great Britain or anywhere in the Empire, if the defendant could not get a trial in Massachusetts. The Quartering Act forced colonist to host British troops in their homes

During the Cold War, there were periods of great tension between the United States and the Soviet Union, the two world superpowers at the time. This was also an ideological battle, between capitalism, represented by the U.S., and communism, represented by the Soviet Union.

This is why the House of Representatives had a committee, the HUAC, focused solely on detecting possible communist activity in domestic territory. This committee was similar to the one led by Joseph McCarthy in the Senate (The Senate Government Operations Committee).

Dear Father

I received your letter on Thursday the 14th with much pleasure. I am well which one comfort is. My life and health are spared while others are cut off. Last Thursday one girl fell down and broke her neck, which caused instant death. She was going in or coming out of the mill and fell down it being very icy. Last Tuesday we were paid. In all I had six dollars and sixty cents paid $4.68 for board. With the rest I got me a pair of rubbers and a pair of 50.cts shoes. Perhaps you would like something about our regulations about going in and coming out of the mill. At half past six [the bell] rings for the girls to get up and at seven they are called to the mill. At half past 12 we have dinner are called back again at one and stay till half past seven. I get along very well with my work. I can doff as fast as any girl in our room. If any girl wants employment I advise them to come to Lowell.

This from,

1. Why did the American colonists want to be free from England?

2. What is the meaning of the natural rights in the Declaration of Independence (life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness)

3. (Most important question) How was the Declaration of Independence written and why was it necessary?

Answers

1. The King and Parliament treated the colonists unfairly by placing taxes on British goods, allowing soldiers to live in their houses without permission, etc.

2. Natural rights = Rights that everyone are born with and cannot be taken away

3. The Continental Congress approved the D.o.I (Declaration of Independence) and announced the separation of the 13 North American British colonies from Great Britain. It was necessary because they needed to convince the States that the time had come for the United Colonies to split and declare independence from England.

The American colonists wanted to be free from England because of what they saw as unreasonable taxes made by the king.

The meaning of the natural rights in the Declaration of Independence are life which means that one has the right to hold the ownership of their OWN life. Liberty which intends people to have lawful freedom without depriving anyone else of their freedom. Finally the pursuit of happiness means that people can do whatever makes them happy as long as it is legal.

The Declaration of Independence was written by the five man committee which includes, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman, and Robert R. Livingston in Philadelphia. The purpose of the writing the Declaration of Independence was to break free from England. It was necessary because it proposed a new theory of government and separated the 13 colonies from England's laws, which allowed them to be a free country.
