The RMS Lusitania was a ship that sailed from New York and had American civilians in - at that point the US was neutral in the WWI -, when the ship came to the sight of the Irish Coast the German U-boat attacked it.
Despite the fact that Americans were horrified at the Lusitania attack, many Americans did not like the idea to enter the war, Irish Americans did not enjoy the idea of helping Britain because the country denied Ireland its independence, German Americans were sympathetic towards their ancestral homeland and Americans saw no reason to enter into a war between European powers. The US only entered war two and a half years after it started.

Answer:
<h2>A state of virtual slavery </h2>
Explanation:
Sharecropping was the system in which the landowner gives plots of land to a tenant in exchange for a share of harvest. It allowed the tenants to produce more to stay tied to the land.
In the southern US black families rented lands from the white owners and raised crops like rice, tobacco and cotton. The landlords and merchant used to lease the equipment credit, food, fertilisers and seeds on credit until the harvest season.
But this system was not different from slavery as unpredictable harvests, high interest rates kept the black families indebted and the debts had to cried over to the next year. The laws which required the harvest to be sold only to the landlord and prevented the former slaves from changing their landlord if they were indebted to them.
Two third of all the sharecroppers were white and one third were black. Sharecropping faded away in 1940's due to mechanisation, great depression and various other factors in 1940's.
Answer:
C. Congress can negotiate treaties
Explanation:
A treaty is a form of formal agreement between countries.
The US foreign policies are always brought up by the President which are then passed to the Congress and reviewed for further actions. The Congress ensures the policies such as treaties are in the best interest of the nation and then a vote is taken. The treaty is then passed if the two thirds of the Congress vote in support of the treaty.
