Answer 1

Your answer is going to be B

Answer 2

D) Spain and the Netherlands

Step-by-step explanation:

After the capture of the British army at Saratoga, France decided to get involved in the war and support the American colonists. An official alliance was drafted in 1778 and France became the first country to recognize the Declaration of Independence. The Spanish became allies of the French in 1779, while the Dutch did so in 1780. This led them to also support the colonists and forced the British to fight a global war.
