Answer:

Secession would destroy the only democracy in existence and prove for all time - to both future Americans and the world - that a government of the people could not survive." Abraham Lincoln This Harper's Weekly illustration features members of the South Carolina delegation who resigned their seats on Christmas Eve 1860.

Explanation:

Because Lincoln embodied the striving for human freedom more than any figure in history. As far as Lincoln was concerned, secession was unconstitutional, and therefore the rebel states had never actually left the union. Why did the South have the right to secede?

Secession, as it applies to the outbreak of the American Civil War, comprises the series of events that began on December 20, 1860, and extended through June 8 of the next year when eleven states in the Lower and Upper South severed their ties with the Union. What did the Confederates stand for? Confederate States of America.

Answer:

D. Had political rulers called consuls.

Explanation:

After the Romans eliminated the Consul position when they became an empire in 27 BC, there wasn't really a such thing as a consul until 1722, when Great Britain appointed them to the Republic of Genoa. That was a full 269 years after the Byzantine Empire ended. The equivalence of a consul (which was the highest rank of power during the Roman Republic era) in the Byzantine Empire was a Eunuch (pronounced YOO-nuhk).
