The losses in the Middle East were staggering: the war not only ravaged the land and decimated armies, it destroyed whole societies and economies. In this way, the experience of World War I in the Middle East is perhaps more akin to the experience of World War II in Europe.
Answer:
a. anti slavery
b. Abraham Lincoln
c. making abolition a war goal
Explanation:
The Emancipation Proclamation contributed in no small part to the defeat of the Confederacy in the Civil War because it gave the Union the support of the Abolitionists and the Black Americans in both the North and the South.
At a time where the Union was experiencing losses in the battlefield and Abraham Lincoln was losing support, the Abolitionists rallied behind him and gave him the support needed to push on.
The war also ensured that the European nations who might have supported the Confederacy, steered clear of the conflict as they did not want to be seen as supporting slavery.
Apartheid (“apartness” in the language of Afrikaans) was a system of legislation that upheld segregationist policies against non-white citizens of South Africa. After the National Party gained power in South Africa in 1948, its all-white government immediately began enforcing existing policies of racial segregation. Under apartheid, nonwhite South Africans (a majority of the population) would be forced to live in separate areas from whites and use separate public facilities. Contact between the two groups would be limited. Despite strong and consistent opposition to apartheid within and outside of South Africa, its laws remained in effect for the better part of 50 years. In 1991, the government of President F.W. de Klerk began to repeal most of the legislation that provided the basis for apartheid. President de Klerk and activist Nelson Mandela would later win the Nobel Peace Prize for their work creating a new constitution for South Africa.
