The liberty boys were established as a protest against what

The correct answer is - protest against the British Empire's rule.

The Liberty Boys were a group of youngsters that wanted to see the United States as a free and independent country, and they were protesting and were very loud against the British rule. Even though they were in danger of being sentenced to death by hanging, they were brave and persistent, and in the end their goal was achieved, and the United States managed to become its own independent country.

most people were factory or company owners.

the catholic church withhold people's access to the bible during the middle ages.

people could go to church and listen to the teachings, but it was absolutely forbidden to own and/or read the books of both the old and new testaments. it was also prohibited to translate the books (which where originally in biblical hebrew) to any other language.

this was done so the church could remain in control of what their teachings were and to enhance their importance and power, while also being able to judge people's actions through information that was unavailable for the general public.
