Answer:
Radical Republicans in Congress were most responsible for the passage of the Fourteenth Amendment, as they wanted to guarantee political rights for African Americans as soon as posible after the end of the Civil War.
Explanation:
The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States is one of the post-Civil War amendments, and includes, among others, the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause. It was proposed on June 13, 1866, and ratified on July 9, 1868.
The amendment provides a broad definition of national citizenship, which overrides the decision of Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857), which had excluded slaves and their descendants from possessing constitutional rights. It requires states to provide equal protection before the law to all persons (not just citizens) within their jurisdictions. The importance of the Fourteenth Amendment was exemplified when it was interpreted to prohibit racial segregation in public schools in Brown v. Board of Education.
The other two post-war amendments are the Thirteenth Amendment (prohibiting slavery) and the Fifteenth Amendment (it prohibits qualifications regarding the vote determined by race).
Answer: She will either lose her brothers or her betrothed/ fiancé
Explanation:
The question is in relation to a painting called<em> Oath of the Horatii</em> that depicts the Horatii brothers pledging to fight to the death for the glory of Rome. It is based on a legend that 3 Horatii brothers from Rome would fight 3 Curiatii brothers from Alba Longa to decide a winner between the two cities in an ongoing dispute. This way they would not have to send both their armies and therefore save life.
As the brothers salute their father, their sister weeps because she is betrothed to one of the Curiatii brothers. This means that she is a loser in this dispute because she will either lose her brothers if the Curiatii kill them or she will lose her betrothed if her brothers kill the Curiatii.
She ends up twice the loser however as her surviving brother returns home and kills her when he sees her mourning her betrothed and cursing Rome.
