The United States faced threats from which of the following in the 1780s? Check all of the boxes that apply.

Answer
A
Great Britain
B
Spain
C
France
D
Mediterranean pirates

Explanation

In the 1780s, the United States faced disputes and pressure from Great Britain, including its continued presence at frontier forts, and from Spain, which restricted American access to the Mississippi River. Mediterranean pirates also threatened American ships and trade. France was an ally rather than a threat in this period, so the correct choices are Great Britain, Spain, and Mediterranean pirates.
