History

The ratification of the 14th Amendment is important in that it provided citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States, including former enslaved people, and promised all citizens "equal protection of the laws."

<h3>What other significance did the 14th Amendment have?</h3>

It was one of three amendments approved during the Reconstruction period to abolish slavery and create civil and legal rights for African Americans, and it would serve as the foundation for many historic Supreme Court judgments over the years.

Later sections of the 14th Amendment authorized the federal government to punish states that violated or abridged their citizens' right to vote by reducing the states' representation in Congress proportionally, and mandated that anyone who "engaged in insurrection" against the United States could not hold civil, military, or elected office (without the approval of two-thirds of the states).

Identify the countries that were Soviet satellite states.
stira [4]

The Soviet Union, in a similar fashion as the United States, had its satellite states. The satellite states of the Soviet Union were located in Eastern and Central Europe, and they served as a protection shield from the West. The nations that were satellite states to the Soviets were East Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria. These states formed a nice barrier for the Soviets from the West, and they were perfectly aligned from the North Sea, down to the border with Greece and Turkey. It has to be mentioned though that the majority of the people in these countries were not very fond of being under the control of the communists, but lot of force was used against them to frighten them and oppress them, so ti took a lot of time for these nations to get free from the communist.
