History

Wilmot Proviso proposed a law prohibiting slavery in the territories, specifically territories won from Mexico following the Mexican-American War, such as Arizona, California, and Texas.

This proposal contributed to the Civil War in 1861, because it further heated the debate over slavery's role in the Union.

How did Theodore Roosevelt regulate the growth of trusts?
sattari [20]

Answer:  He enforced the Sherman Antitrust Act.

Context/history:

The Sherman Anti-Trust Act  was the first measure by Congress to prohibit trusts. It was passed by Congress in 1890.  A trust was when  stockholders in multiple  companies transferred their stock shares to a single group of trustees. Thus a whole industry area could be dominated by a single "trust" organization, destroying the free market of business competition. This was a monopolistic practice which the Sherman Anti-Trust Act ended.  Thus the Sherman Anti-Trust Act directly went against the idea of those who believed business success should be based on large business owners colluding with one another.

Initially the Sherman Antitrust Act was not well enforced by US courts.  But when Theodore ("Teddy") Roosevelt took office as President in 1901, he pushed enforcement of the Act and worked to reign in the power of big businesses.

Note:  

The Clayton Antitrust Act was passed by Congress in 1914, after Teddy Roosevelt was no longer President.

Was the American revolution inevitable?
Afina-wow [57]

American independence was inevitable, but victory in the American Revolution was not. The American colonies were filling up quickly and building a distinctly American culture. After the French were expelled from the West and Canada, the American colonists did not “need” the British any more.
