Before the abolition and the Civil War, most African American women were slaves. When the war ended in the mid 1800's, most women were involved in domestic or agricultural work. They started earning real money after the Emancipation Proclamation, and employed as seamstress, maids, cooks and farmers.

Why did Hamilton use the words "insurgent" and "insurrection" to describe the events in Pennsylvania
Nataly_w [17]

In the summer of 1794, tensions between farmers and creditors in western Pennsylvania boiled over into violence. A group of armed farmers, calling themselves the "Associators," began to attack and seize the property of anyone they saw as an enemy. In response, President George Washington dispatched a force of 13,000 militiamen to put down the rebellion.

In a report to Congress, Alexander Hamilton described the events in Pennsylvania as an "insurgent" and "insurrection." By using these words, Hamilton was trying to downplay the seriousness of the situation and avoid calling it a full-blown rebellion. He may have also been trying to avoid provoking even more violence by using language that was less inflammatory.

The situation in Pennsylvania was eventually resolved without any major bloodshed. However, the episode showed how quickly tensions could boil over into violence in the early days of the republic. It also showed the importance of having a strong central government that was able to quickly put down any internal threats to the stability of the country.

Why was the election of andrew jackson significant
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Jackson's election was significant because of his posture as "the common man's" candidate.  Jackson was one of the first Presidents elected who did not have the Federalist pedigree of prior candidates.  At the same time, he did not possess the "insider" status of his opponent, John Quincy Adams.

Which contributions did Kublai Khan make during his rule in China?
zhuklara [117]

Kublai Khan is known and revered for his civilian and administrative, not his military achievements. Grandson of Genghis Khan, Kublai sought to govern rather than to exploit and devastate the vast domains bequeathed to him by two generations of Mongol conquests. He made the transition from a nomadic conqueror from the steppes to effective ruler of a sedentary society. Ironically, however, his reign witnessed the Mongols’ most remarkable military success, the subjugation of the Southern Sung dynasty of China, and simultaneously their greatest military fiascos, the failed naval expeditions against Japan and Java.
