The correct answer is William Sherman.
Sherman is often remembered for "Sherman's March to the Sea." Sherman, along with federal forces, used total warfare throughout the state of Georgia. This concept of total war consisted of destroying railroad tracks, burning crops, and burning down important buildings/homes of southern citizens. This attack helped lead to the downfall of the South, as the destruction of railroad tracks and food reduced the amount of resources available for the Confederacy.
The answer is B, white Americans became fearful that the rebellion might spread to american shores.
Both the Southern and Middle Colonies had fertile farmlands, but only the Middle Colonies was able to provide trading opportunities, thanks to their coastal lowland and bay-provided harbors. Southern Colonies highly contributed to the rise of cash crops such as rice, tobacco, and indigo. Slaves cultivate huge tracts of land and plantations owned by wealthy aristocrats and large landowners. On the other hand, Middle Colonies were more suitable for growing grain and livestock, with its environment ideal for small to large farms. More diverse workforce also exists in the Middle Colonies, consisting of farmers, fisherman, and merchants. Another notable contrast between the two colonies is that, for the people of the South, life developed as rough and rural while people of the Middle countries are deeply connected to the Church and village community.
