Building the Panama Canal
The French in the 1880s had attempted to build a canal across Panama, this catastrophic failure, resulted in the deaths of over 22,000 individuals who were working on the canal project due to malaria and yellow fever. The French eventually stopped their attempt on the project in 1889.
The disease takes on this name because of the horrendous attack on the body that may lead to liver failure and result in a yellowish tone to the skin. The disease is a hemorrhagic fever which assaults the body causing a lengthy list of symptoms including vomiting, nausea, body aches, headaches, coughing up blood and possible resulting in death.
Colonial William Gorgas first let the charge in Cuba and then later in Panama to create a sanitation campaign, which laid waste to the habitats and breeding grounds for the mosquito carrying of the disease and discouraged other forms of contamination, such as isolating those who were sick in quarantine. With his successful program, the United States government was eventually able to complete the canal project in a 10 year period, at the beginning of the 10th century.

The correct answer is:
A. Lincoln declared it was the South's punishment for starting the Civil War.
Explanation:
<em>The 13th Amendment of the American Constitution abolished slavery and involuntary servitude</em>; it was ratified in 1865 after the Civil War and states:
- “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.”
President Lincoln stated in two speeches that Southern states had caused the Civil War because<u> </u><u>they favored slavery and because of their secession from the Union</u>, his first attempt to abolish slavery was the <em>Emancipation Proclamation in 1863,</em> but it only freed slaves from the<u> Confederate States of America,</u> so<em> Lincoln pressured the Congress to pass the Thirteenth Amendment before Southern states were restored as part of the Union </em>so they couldn't vote against the amendment. President Lincoln did not lived to see the final ratification on December 6,1865 because he was assassinated months before.
Answer:
The Holy Roman Empire faced many territorial challenges.
Explanation:
The first challenge was in Italy: the Italian states that were part of the Holy Roman Empire were separated from the German hinterland by the Alps, which imposed a communication barrier that made it very difficult for Emperors to hold control over these lands.
In what is now Germany, there were also territorial issues. The land was divided among countless states: duchies, counties, princedoms, fiefdoms, city-states, and so on, something that made coordination at the imperial level very difficult.
As centuries passed, the Holy Roman Empire lost control over several possessions: it lost most of the Low Countries, and the Italian city-states like the Duchy of Milan and the Republic of Venice became fully independent.
