Answer:
Carl Vinson added the Naval Expansion Legislation to strengthen the US Navy in terms of latest ships.
Explanation:
- Carl Vinson was appointed as the chairman of the House of Naval Affairs in 1931.
- Vinson-Trammell Act was pushed by Vinson in 1934 to authorize the replacement of old vessels with the new ones along with increasing the number of ships.
- During the time of World War II, Vinson was responsible for additional Naval Expansion that made it enter world war 2 and match the Japanese ships and vessels.
From what I can remember, states' rights was a large factor contributing to the Civil War. With Lincoln becoming president and representing the North, the Southern states seceded, leading to a war. The state governments of the South argued that since the Constitution and federal government was created by the states, the federal government had no right to stop states from seceding. President Lincoln and other northerners disagreed and wanted to preserve the Union by stopping states from seceding.
After the war, I believe the South still disagreed on a strong federal government. They wanted to rule the area by themselves.
