In 1850, President Fillmore signed the Fugitive Slave Act, which made it illegal to help a slave run away and required officials to return escaped slaves to their owners.

Why did President Grover Cleveland refuse to sign the treaty that allowed the United States to annex Hawaii?
maks197457 [2]
He was an anti-imperialist and believe the US overstepped in Hawaii.

The marines had forced the queen of Hawaii to give up her thrown and took over the island country. They brought an annexation request to Congress and before it could be considered, Cleveland removed the request from consideration. He believed the US overstepped and stepped on the rights of the Hawaii people. Cleveland tried to put the queen back in power through his presidency but eventually McKinley would push through the annexation during his presidency.

Why might a Roman historian like ammianus want to compare the huns to unthinking animals
KatRina [158]
The reason for this is that Romans were at the time a very highly developed civilization while the Huns, together with other tribes with which the Romans have dealt with in previous decades, were mostly nomads who did not have permament and grand settlements such as Rome at the time for example. For that reason, this might have made historians like Ammianus be inclined to think that Huns were savage brutes without the capability to think.
