You are a young southern or northern man in 1861. you have left home to join the army. write a letter to your family explaining your reasons for joining the union or confederate army.

Dear family,

I leave this letter to warn you that I am joining the Union Army and asking for your prayers for my protection and for the protection of all those on the battlefield today.

I believe it is God's will that all men be free regardless of their skin color and that the way the Confederates defend slavery is something inhuman and cruel that hurts the Christian principles to which our country has been rooted.

Moreover, I believe that it is my duty as a citizen to fight for the union of our country, so in this way I will be guaranteeing a prosperous future, strong and full of freedom and unity.

Lastly, I apologize for the concern I am causing you, I ask you to understand and to introduce me in your prayers.

Sincerely yours,

John.

the phenomenon that would be cited as evidence of increased economic interdependence between europe and the americas is  the development of mercantilism.

this theory suggests that the wealth of a country depends on its economic assets, or capital.

hope this : )
