Looking at the map of the Battle of Long Island, where did the British troops come from before they landed in Brooklyn?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

Unfortunately, you forgot to include the map. So we are going to answer the question without the map, just on our knowledge of the subject.

The Battle of Long Island. The British troops came from the evacuation of the city of Boston Massachusetts before they landed in Brooklyn. Indeed, the British troops camped in Staten Island, very close to what today is Manhattan, before marching to what today is Brookly, the area where the Battle of Long Island was fought.

This Battle was considered to be the largest battle in the Revolutionary War of Indidepende and was fought on August 27, 1776. It also was the first major battle after the promulgation of the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, drafted by Thomas Jefferson and other four prominent founding fathers.
