Question

question 13 of 36
the american revolution influenced the haitian revolution by:
a. abandoning european forms of government in favor of new approaches developed in the americas.
b. demonstrating that colonies could free themselves from the control of their founding countries.
c. proving that nonviolent resistance was the best path to independence.
d. acknowledging the importance of ending slavery throughout the americas.

Explanation:

The American Revolution showed that colonies could gain independence from their mother countries. This inspired the Haitian Revolution. The American Revolution used violence (not non - violent resistance as in option C). The American Revolution did not fully end slavery (contradicts option D). Also, the American government still had some European influences (so option A is incorrect).

Answer:

B. demonstrating that colonies could free themselves from the control of their founding countries.
