Correct answer: C) 1850s

Details:

Harriet Tubman was an escaped slave. who had been held in slavery in Maryland. She escaped to Philadelphia in 1849 ... but then went back to rescue her family and help them to freedom. Then she helped extended family members, and eventually was helping many, many slaves to freedom on what became known as the "Underground Railroad" -- a secret network of routes from one safe house to another that aided slaves in their escape. During the 1850s, Tubman directly helped dozens of slaves escape to the North, and provided instructions for escape to dozens more beyond those.

<span>How did the Russians defeat both Hitler and Napoleon?

<span>First off, they started pretty well. When the Germans first invaded, the people thought they were being liberated (tells you a lot about the government at the time) and were treated pretty well. But then they started killing people and things went downhill. Now, Hitler had this grand idea to take over Stalingrad (mostly for its namesake, Stalin). He thought it would be a massive blow to the Russian morale. But instead of basing his military strageties on logic, he did on feelings (he wanted to beat Stalin); which is never a good thing. Unforunately, he didn't anticipate Russian winter (which, luckily for the Russians, came early that year and ironically the same year for Napoleon). So the German army was stuck in Summer gear, rather then the proper Winter gear (which was promised but never came through). AND look at Russia as a whole: It's a huge country (I heard it takes around 8-10 days to just get through Russia straight across). Now, to the other guy above me. Russia isn't known for having the strongest armies ever. Actually, compared to the Germans they were undisclipined, untrained and from all types of backgrounds, and all ages, etc. Hardly sounds like an ideal army. But the Russian people were stubborn and burned everything, so in that way the German army failed. Plus, Russia had an endless supply of men. Hitler was shocked to notice, there was always a fresh supply of men waiting to fight.

So in conclusion, Russia's massive land(s) and brutal winters contributed to both the fails of Napoleon and Hitler's conquer of Russia. </span>
