Fort Ticonderoga was a British fort in northern New York. It had a large number of cannons, but it was not well defended. So, a Massachusetts militia led by Benedict Arnold went to capture it. On the way, the militia joined forces with Colonel Ethan Allen. Allen led the Green Mountain Boys, another militia from present-day Vermont. Before dawn on May 10, 1775, the two militias quietly crossed the lake near the fort. They found the fort defended by fewer than 50 soldiers. The British were completely surprised, and the soldiers at the fort quickly surrendered. The Patriots did not even fire a single shot. But they won an important prize: a collection of British cannons!

answer: they’re different

explanation: different people

it is based on the same philosophy as health insurance

the correct answer is "pioneers carried all of their possessions on long and dangerous trails".

the first wave of pioneers travelled in 1842. they were merely 100 people. the next year that sum climbed to 1000 men, women, and children. these people travelled around 2,000 miles to oregon in the hopes of a better life. although the first part of the trip didn't present many obstacles, as time and miles went by they learnt that threat came from simple things, like becoming ill due to unclean water or bad food.

the weather didn't much, as wagons couldn't protect them from storms. as they travelled through the desert, the intense heat caused wood to shrink. their own lips abscessed and split because of the dry air. the only cure for this was to rub axle grease on their lips.

even crossing rivers was dangerous. sometimes wheels were damaged by unseen rocks on shallow water. mud didn't much either. pioneers were afraid of indian attacks, but there aren't many records of fights between pioneers and native americans. accidents happened because of negligence, exhaustion, guns, and bad weather.

history says that 1 of 10 pioneers who travelled to oregon didn't survive the journey. diseases spread fastly because they didn't have doctors and medical care was ofently improvised. one of the most deadly diseases they came upon was cholera, which became a worldwide pandemia.
