Answer:

The following agreements were not part of the Missouri Compromise:

-admit Missouri as a free state

-admit Maine as a slave state

-Congress could not determine the expansion of slavery into the territories

Explanation:

The Missouri Compromise was an agreement taken in 1820 between the representatives of the slave and abolitionist states in the United States Congress in relation to the regulation of slavery in the Western territories, which in the future would become states, to maintain the majority, or at least equality, of the number of states opposed to slavery, existing from the creation of the United States until then.

The compromise arose from the need to maintain the balance that existed between the 11 non-slave states (New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, founders, and Vermont, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois), and the other 11 slave states (Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, founders, and Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama), when discussing in 1819 the law of admission of the new state of Missouri, slave, which would unbalance the composition of the Senate (each state had and has two representatives, regardless of its population), in favor of the slave states. In the House there was no such balance because its representatives were elected proportionally to the population, larger in the northern states.

The negotiated solution that was reached, the following year, on March 2, 1820, consisted in admitting the state of Missouri as a slave state, while creating the state of Maine, (which depended on the state of Massachusetts), as a non-slave state.

Also, and to maintain in the future the balance between states of one type and another, it was agreed to establish a dividing line, defined by the parallel 36º 30 ', as the future limit of the western slavery and abolitionist states.

Which identifies a major Russian victory on the eastern front during World War I?
zaharov [31]

Correct answer:  The Brusilov Offensive

Explanation:

I'll give more details about the Brusilov Offensive momentarily. First let's dispense with the other choices of World War I battles:

  • The Battle of Tannenburg was a huge loss for Russia.  The battle resulted in the near destruction of the Russian Second Army.  The Scond Army's commander, General Alexander Samsonov, committed suicide, knowing that the tsar would hold him responsible for the devastating loss.
  • The Gallipoli Campaign was an Ottoman victory in Turkish territory, over forces of Britain and France.
  • The Battle of the Somme was fought in French territory between British and French forces against the Germans,

About the Brusilov Offensive:

Named for the Russian commander in charge, General Aleksei Brusilov, the Brusilov Offensive was a major Russian attack against the Central Powers on the Eastern Front.  The offensive began on June 4, 1916 and lasted into September.  It was a great victory for the Russians, but came at a tremendous cost of at least 500,000 casualties.  The Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire) suffered even more losses, with around a million casualties.

Use an encyclopedia, the Internet, or other sources to research the following Reconstruction scandals: The Tweed Ring in New Yor
pickupchik [31]

Black Friday

The Gold Ring was formed by Jay Gould and James Fisk.  The then president  of the United States, Ulysses  S. Grant, made an effort to stabilize the US dollar,  boost the economy after the hits of the civil war, and also to pay off the national debt caused by the war. He tried to do this by selling treasury gold every week. The first step he took to get a grip on the economy was to sign the Public Credit Act, which enabled citizens to have their bonds repaid in gold or the equivalent and so get a more secure circulation of “sound money “. Moreover,  president Grant placed the very talented George Boutwell in charge of the United States Treasury and he started selling gold on a weekly basis to buy US wartime bonds.  At the same time he improved the tax collecting methods to avoid counterfeiting and was able to keep the gold price and the money supply level artificially low. Jay Gould and James Fisk infiltrated in the social circles of  president Grant to receive confidential information of the selling of gold. They plotted to stop the president from selling the gold weekly, so that the price of gold could rise again. They also fed the president with false premonitions that the gold selling would harm farmers. When they thought that they found a profitable price to buy gold, they did so, in order to sell the gold again later for a higher price and so increase their wealth.  But the president came to know about their foul scheme and he ordered more gold to be sold on this particular Friday ,24th of September 1869 ,called “ Black Friday’’ and in this way the price of gold went so low that Gould and Fisk lost most of their money.  

The Dawes Acts (including civil service reforms)

The 1887 Dawes Act, gave the authority to the president of the United States to allot Native American tribal land to individual Native Americans. If they accepted these allotments and would go live separately from their tribes, they would be granted the US citizenship.  The creator of the act was Massachusetts senator Henry Laurens Dawes. The Dawes Act was a way to transfer tribal and communal ownership of land into individual ownership, and also to give non-Native Americans the chance to purchase these lands. In 1891 the Dawes Act was amended, then in 1898 into the Curtis Act and then again in 1906 by the Burke Act. For decades after these Acts, the Tribal communities have sold a great part of their communal land to non-Native Americans and in this way the government managed to destroy their tribal way of living . The aim of the government was to open the Indian lands for  European- American settlers to farm and make way for railroads. Through this Act,  tribal owned land in America decreased from 138 million acres in 1887 to only 48 million acres in 1934. The Dawes act had an impact on the gender roles and the social structure in the Native American community because to be able to receive land, the women had to be officially married. Before, the women had control over property and descent because of the matrilineal tribal society.  Now the men had to go out working in the fields while the women had to do domestic chores. The original plan, concocted by Henry Dawes to create respectable farmers according to the European –American model has failed and left the tribal community as mere survivors of destruction.
