What was considered middle age in the early 1800s?

History
1 answer:
zvonat [6]3 years ago
6 0
Life expectancy around the year 1800 was only about 36 years, so "middle age" (or median of lifespans) would be only about 17 or 18 years of age.  By the time young people reached their late teens, they typically were expected to be working, married and carrying adult responsibilities.  

Those life expectancy numbers can be a little misleading, though.  A main reason that average life expectancy was only in the mid-30s is because infant mortality rates were very high.  For persons who survived their childhood into adulthood, there was a good chance they lived to a much older age than 30-something.

What were the challenges of Reconstruction?
Gelneren [198K]

Racial feelings with freed slaves

A major challenge during the Reconstruction was a lack of political focus which led to a failure to solve sectional wounds. It also resulted in the elimination of the freed slaves' newly gained civil liberties and ultimately failed to bring about long-term racial integration.

Which Progressive policy influenced the Seventeenth Amendment?
nadya68 [22]

Answer: A. Election Reform

Explanation:

Critics of the system claimed that the senators behaved like property for lobbyists and that it wasn't about their competence but about what they could do for those who financed them. That's why they added the 17th amendment to enable popular sovereignty when it came to choosing senators.
