To match the events to the correct nation, let's review each event and its relation to Canada's path to independence and the United States' path to independence:
A. The statute of Westminster grants Independence: This event corresponds to Canada's path to independence, as the statute of Westminster was a British law passed in 1931 that granted Canada and other Commonwealth countries legislative autonomy, essentially recognizing them as fully independent nations.
B. The revolutionary War was fought against British: This event corresponds to the United States' path to independence. The Revolutionary War, which took place from 1775 to 1783, was fought by the American colonists against the British in their quest for independence.
C. The British were defeated in the Battle of Yorktown: This event corresponds to the United States' path to independence. The Battle of Yorktown, which occurred in 1781, was a decisive victory for the American forces led by General George Washington and resulted in the surrender of the British army, effectively ending major combat operations in the American Revolutionary War.
D. The British North America Act unites the province and allows for some self-government: This event corresponds to Canada's path to independence. The British North America Act, passed in 1867, united the provinces of Canada (now Ontario and Quebec) with New Brunswick and Nova Scotia to form the Dominion of Canada. This act provided a framework for self-government in Canada and was a critical step towards greater autonomy and eventual independence.
