Read the excerpt below. Which factor cause the British to suffer such an unexpected defeat?

"British General Burgoyne planned an attack on the Americans at Saratoga. He and his army were in Canada and set out to Saratoga, approximately 220 miles away. Getting from Canada to Saratoga required his soldiers to travel through dense forests with thick undergrowth. It also required them to cross deep ravines, where heavy rain had turned the ground into thick mud. Travel took so long that his soldiers ran low on food. By the time the army reached Saratoga, they were hungry and exhausted. Additionally, General Burgoyne's messages to other generals never got through to them.

The Americans defeated the British at the Battle of Saratoga, in what became a turning point in the Revolutionary War."

The British army was weak and inexperienced

The British general was not familiar with the local geography.

The British general was too confident and did not ask for support.

Traveling 220 miles was an unreasonable expectation of an army on foot.
