Abraham Lincoln's Gettysbury Address is perhaps the most iconic and famous speeches in the history of the United States.
It the address took place just 4 and a half months after the end of the Civil War, at the time when the United States was struggling to find a national way forward.


The aim of the Address was to provide hope to the American people and give them a vision of a brighter future. It was addressed both at the Southerners and the people in the North.

A whole generation had seen war, death and misery and the future for many, was not so great.

The overall message of the address was to tell every American, that their right to life, liberty and freedom will be respected and that their country will keep on prospering.

The address wanted people to look at the end of the Civil War as an opportunity for a New America.

 The main theme of the speech was to demystify the American civil war to a country that had just crept out of war and its misery. Lincoln message was that of hope, and restoration of American spirit and reinstatement of the fundamental principles of the American nation such as liberties and freedoms.

One political consequence of religious upheaval in the period 1450 to 1750
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The thirty-year war was the main consequence of the religious upheaval seen among 1450-1750.

Explanation:

The war of three years was established thanks to the religious conflict between Protestants and Catholics in Rome. This conflict that started being regional, gradually involved different European countries, reaching the point of involving the whole of Europe. The war lasted for years and in addition it ceased to have a religious nature to have a political nature, through the involvement of governments and the stabilization of alienations and persecutions, causing a great political polarization.

The war ended only after the Munster treaty, a peace treaty.

The great compromise resolved the differences that large and small states had about which of the following major concerns
Phoenix [80]
The Great Compromise was a compromise between the New Jersey Plan and the Virginia Plan.

The New Jersey Plan, basically, was for each state to get an equal vote in Congress, while the Virginia Plan, again, briefly, was for each state to get a vote proportional to the amount of citizens living in their state.

The Great Compromise solved the concerns that the large and small states had, of not getting enough power in Congress. They compromised, and created the House of Representatives, following the Virginia Plan, and created the Senate, which is above the House of Representatives, following the New Jersey Plan.
