Describe what happened in Kansas that led newspapers to write about ''Bleeding Kansas.''

History

Pani-rosa [81]3 years ago

In 1854, the Kansas-Nebraska Act was passed. This law allowed both of these territories to become states. However, before officially becoming a state, the federal government gave them the option to vote on whether Kansas/Nebraska would be a free or slave state. This is what causes "Bleeding Kansas."

Thousands of individuals vote, with the initial results showing that Kansas would be a slave state. However, individuals against slavery, cried foul as citizens from Missouri (a slave state) came over the border and illegally voted in the election. The people who did not want slavery refused to settle on this issue and violence broke out all over Kansas. This fighting between people who did and did not want slavery caused extreme violence and death. This is why it is called "Bleeding Kansas."

Ann [662]

Answer:

I think Spain best illustrates the statement "contact with Europeans dramatically alters American Indian societies, both culturally and economically."

Explanation:

Plains Native Americans(American Indians) lived in a variety of sedentary and nomadic communities before the invasion of Spanish colonizers.

They farmed corn, hunted, and

often gathered, establishing different lifestyles and eating healthy diets but with the arrival of horses on the Plains along with the Spanish colonizers, they disrupted their agricultural norms and intensified hunting competition between American Indian groups.

The Spanish altered American Indian lives in many ways. Their intrusion resulted in changing the tribal customs and religious traditions of the American Indian community. Tribal alliances changed positions and new rivalries were developed. American Indians lost their land, their families, and their way of life.

The Indians were then compelled to feed the invaders with food initially used to feed themselves. This furthers proved to be a burden during the dry growing seasons. Implementing the encomienda and repartimiento systems which forced Indians to pay taxes with their food, blankets, and their labor. Repartimiento was a disadvantage to the Indians because it took from them their own fields to plant and harvest instead forced them to plant and harvest on the Spanish fields thereby altering their economy as a people
