Ad libitum [116K]4 years ago

During the First World War the North American Navy was very small compared to the armies mobilized by the European armies. With the declaration of war of the USA to Germany in April of 1917, the Congress approved an Act creating the Selective Service System. This law gave the president - W. Wilson at that time - the power of conscription, calling men for military service. The system consisted of a classification of five levels and expanded the previously allowed ages. By the end of the recluting days, it had achieved more than two million volunteers. This conscription campaign was very successful because it was accompanied by a strong publicity that encouraged men to a patriotic attitude, which guaranteed a high success rate. This recruitment system was left without effect in 1920.

Evaluate the economic, geographic, and social factors that impacted the growth of slavery in the southern colonies between 1607
choli [55]

Answer:

The geographic, economic, and social factors that impacted the growth of slavery in the southern colonies of the United States were as follows:

-On the one hand, the temperate climate of the southern colonies, from Virginia to Florida, encouraged the production of agricultural and livestock products, which needed abundant labor to be exploited efficiently.

-This made the southern colonies rely predominantly on the production of these resources as the main means of economic production.

-Thus, to efficiently exploit the resources of the south, the large landowners began to use slave labor to cultivate large amounts of land.

-This in turn was fostered by an extremely racist system, based on the presumed predominance of the white race in physical and intellectual terms.
