Question 1 options:

made the Emancipation Proclamation law by ending slavery in America


was supported by most citizens of the former Confederate States of America


gave newly-freed slaves the right to vote


all of the above

Answers

Answer:

The Thirteenth Amendment (Amendment XIII) to the United States Constitution abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. The amendment was passed by Congress on January 31, 1865, and ratified by the required 27 of the then 36 states on December 6, 1865, and proclaimed on December 18. It was the first of the three Reconstruction Amendments adopted following the American Civil War.

President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, issued on January 1, 1863, declared that the enslaved in Confederate-controlled areas were free. When they escaped to Union lines or federal forces—including now-former slaves—advanced south, emancipation occurred without any compensation to the former owners. Texas was the last Confederate territory reached by the Union army. On June 19, 1865—Juneteenth—U.S. Army general Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to proclaim the war had ended and so had slavery. In the slave-owning areas controlled by Union forces on January 1, 1863, state action was used to abolish slavery. The exceptions were Kentucky and Delaware where slavery was finally ended by the Thirteenth Amendment in December 1865.

In contrast to the other Reconstruction Amendments, the Thirteenth Amendment has rarely been cited in case law, but has been used to strike down peonage and some race-based discrimination as "badges and incidents of slavery". The Thirteenth Amendment has also been invoked to empower Congress to make laws against modern forms of slavery, such as sex trafficking.

Since 1804, states had divided into states that allowed or states that prohibited slavery. Slavery was implicitly recognized in the original Constitution in provisions such as Article I, Section 2, Clause 3, commonly known as the Three-Fifths Compromise, which provided that three-fifths of each state's enslaved population (“other persons”) was to be added to its free population for the purposes of apportioning seats in the United States House of Representatives and direct taxes among the states.

Though three million Confederate slaves were in fact freed by Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, their post-war status was uncertain. To ensure the abolition was beyond legal challenge, an amendment to the Constitution to that effect was initiated. On April 8, 1864, the Senate passed an amendment to abolish slavery. After one unsuccessful vote and extensive legislative maneuvering by the Lincoln administration, the House followed suit on January 31, 1865. The measure was swiftly ratified by nearly all Northern states, along with a sufficient number of border states (slave states not part of the Confederacy) up to the assassination of President Lincoln. However, the approval came via his successor, President Andrew Johnson, who encouraged the "reconstructed" Southern states of Alabama, North Carolina, and Georgia to agree, which brought the count to 27 states, leading to its adoption before the end of 1865.

Though the Amendment abolished slavery throughout the United States, some Black Americans, particularly in the South, were subjected to other forms of involuntary labor, such as under the Black Codes, as well as subjected to white supremacist violence, and selective enforcement of statutes, besides other disabilities.

President Ronald Reagan and British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher implemented a conservative economic policy based on the privatization of state-owned industries and policies based on deregulation, modest tax rates, and limited government spending. According to Commanding Heights Episode 1, did these policies affect commerce and industry in Great Britain and the United States during the 1980s? Why or why not? How did these two leaders affect the globalization of business?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not attach the video or a link to it.

However, trying to help you we can comment on the following.

In the final part of the video "Commanding Heights Episode 1," produced by PBS, the narrator refers to the ways Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher's economic policies and how affected the middle and lower classes of the United States and Great Britain during the 1980s.

It is correct to say that President Ronald Reagan and British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher implemented a conservative economic policy based on the privatization of state-owned industries and policies based on deregulation, modest tax rates, and limited government spending.

Both government leaders thought the government had controlled the economy for many years and this had produced bad economic results. They thought that the government was not able to own so many enterprises and had to deregulate and privatize the economy. And privatize they did. They privatize the nationalized industries and controlled workers' unions.

Thatcher and Reagan affected the globalization of business in that they supported excessive private investment in companies and allowed the development of new foreign trade agreements such as the GATT.

what are the rock chambers in ancient india used for

Answers

Answer:

It is there history of there creativity of making the design of the Rock for Kings and other richer people so that their place can look better then any other

Explanation:

Indian rock-cut architecture has more examples than any other form of rock-cut architecture in the world.

[1] Rock-cut architecture defines the practice of creating a structure by carving it out of solid natural rock. The craftsman removes rock not part of the structure until the architectural elements of the excavated interior constitute the only rock left. Indian rock-cut architecture, for the most part, is religious in nature.

[2] In India, caves have long been regarded as places of sanctity. Enlarged or entirely man-made caves hold the same sanctity as natural caves. The sanctuary in all Indian religious structures, even free standing ones, retain the same cave-like feeling of sacredness, being small and dark without natural light.

Curiously, Buddhist monks created their cave hermitages near trade routes that crossed northern India during the time of Christ. As wealthy traders became aware of the Buddhist caves, they became benefactors of expansion of the caves, the building of monolithic rock-cut temples, and of free-standing temples. Emperors and rulers also supported the devotional work and participated in the spiritual devotional services. Very likely, traders would use the hermitages for worship on their routes. As Buddhism weakened in the face of a renewed Hinduism during the eighth century C.E., the rock structure maintenance, expansion, and upgrading fell to the Hindus and Jains. Hindu holy men continued building structures out of rock, dedicating temples to Hindu gods like Shiva, until mysteriously they abandoned the temples around the twelfth century C.E. They abandoned the structures so completely that even local peoples lost knowledge of the awesome structures in their midst. Only in the nineteenth century, when British adventurers and explorers found them, did India rediscover the awesome architecture that comprises world treasures.

3) How did the French Revolution differ from those that occurred in Latin America?
How was it similar?

Answers

Answer:   While the French Revolution produced changes within the borders of France, the Latin American Wars of Independence established independent countries throughout large portions of South America, including Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Peru and Chile.

Explanation:

Answer: In the revolutions of America, France, and Latin America there was a common thread that united these revolutions as well as some differences in why. The common theme in the revolutions in America, France, and Latin America was independence from foreign rule. In the American Colonies, the colonists rebelled and fought for their independence from Great Britain. In France, the people rose up against the monarchy, and in Latin America the people sought independence from Spanish/Portuguese colonial control.

American Revolution

The America Colonies declared their independence on July 4th, 1776, with the adoption of the The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America by the Continental Congress. It asserted, “That all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”. Declaring war was a last resort. The colonist wanted to be treated the same as any another citizen of the king’s empire and this included having a representative in Parliament because they were paying taxes to England, who had increased taxes to pay the debt incurred by the Seven Year War (Bentley, 2006 p.784), but had no representation in England. These pleas fell on the deaf ears of the king and his Privy Council and which lead to the revolt in the American Colonies (Trail, Images of the American Revolution). In 1787 the Constitution Convention laid out the plans for a new system of government which granted rights to male property owners but left out native Americans, landless men, slaves, and women (Bentley, 2006 p.785-786).

Answers

Answer:

OA. They created apartheid laws to limit the rights of black South  Africans.

Explanation:

Although South Africa had a majority African population, the whites hold power over the blacks. This possibility of minority white being in power over the majority black population was only possible because of the racial segregation policy of Apartheid.

Apartheid was systematic legislation that segregates and allows the law to make a distinction between the citizens based on their race and color. And it was through this power that the minority whites were able to maintain power over the majority of black people.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

The correct answer is B. The Industrial Revolution.

Explanation

The Industrial Revolution was a period in which profound transformations occurred in different areas of the European economy, society, and technology (mainly Great Britain) since the 18th century. Once this revolution started, its impact was massive and it spread throughout Europe, and North America in the 19th and 20th centuries. These changes allowed for an increase in the European population because the displacement towards large industrialized cities was encouraged and the demand for labor for factories increased rapidly. Therefore, the correct answer is B. The Industrial Revolution.

marbles numbered from 1 to 12 are put in a bag. if marbles are not put back into the bag after being drawn, what is the probability of drawing two prime numbers in a row?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P = \frac{1}{11}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]Marbles = 12[/tex]

Selection: Without replacement

Required

The probability of selecting 2 primes

Between 1 and 12, the prime digits are: 3, 5, 7 and 11

i.e. 4 prime digits

When the first marble is selected, the probability that it will be prime is:

[tex]P(1) = \frac{4}{12}[/tex]

 

Since it is a selection without replacement, there are 3 primes left and 11 marbles in total.

The probability of selecting another prime is:

[tex]P(2) = \frac{3}{11}[/tex]

The required probability is:

[tex]P = P(1) * P(2)[/tex]

[tex]P = \frac{4}{12} * \frac{3}{11}[/tex]

[tex]P = \frac{1}{11}[/tex]
