How did the Kansas-Nebraska Act deepen the divided between North and South?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The Kansas-Nebraska Law was passed in 1854. This law had the objective of creating two new states, Kansas and Nebraska, which would define their acceptance or not of slavery through popular sovereignty, in which the people would vote by accepting it or not. This situation clearly violated what was established in the Missouri Compromise, since both territories were north of the 36º 30 'parallel, established by said commitment as the limit between the slave states and the free states.

This situation, which protected the possibility of popularly deciding on slavery, intensified the conflict between slavers and abolitionists, since both groups were allowed to take a direct part in the establishment or not of slavery in those territories. Thus, when thousands of representatives of both groups moved to Kansas to participate in the voting, a situation of confrontation and violence between the two was generated, which became known as Bleeding Kansas.

What important natural resource did the Songhai Empire control?
sineoko [7]

The Songhai Empire controlled the production and supply of Salt. This was a very important commodity which was known as white gold at the time.


At its peak the Songhai Empire was the largest and richest Empire in Africa and one of the most powerful in all of the Muslim world.


The cities of Timbuktu and Djenné became importing trading centers and remained one of the most important cities in Africa until the empire's demise.


Apart from salt, the empire grew rich due to its control over vast supplies of Gold, slaves, kola nuts, leather, and dates.



Eventually, the huge riches of the Empire attracted attention from other leaders of the region. In the last 20 years, the kings of Songhai were in constant feud with multinational armies which took a political and economic toll on the Empire.

Now use the chart to compare and contrast the perspectives on immigration from all three primary sources.
alukav5142 [94]

The immigrants are viewed as people who should be pitied and allowed in as they are mostly Jewish refugees, fleeing persecution, according to <em>Emma Lazarus' </em><em>The Colossus.</em>

<h3>What is a Primary Source?</h3>

This refers to the first-hand account of a topic or a narration that is usually reliable.

Emma Lazarus was of the opinion that immigrants can be Americans as she used the Statue of Liberty as a symbol of a welcoming mother to all immigrants. She also felt that all immigrants were equal and one was not superior to the other.

Thomas Bailey in his poem, <em>The Unguarded Gates</em>, is critical of immigrants coming to America. From the tone of the poem, he is a white supremacist and also an advocate of nationalism which also shows that he thought some immigrants were less equal than others.

<em>The Babel Proclamation </em>by the Iowa Governor William Harding showed the controversial declaration that only English should be spoken in public places and also he had strong anti-German sentiments in the wake of World War I and he was anti-immigration and thought some immigrants were less equal than others.
