We are talking here about the cult of true womanhood or cult of domesticity. The victorian ideology describes women role and behavior as being proper, seen not heard, in the domestic sphere, taking care of the kids as a mother and a wife, very chaste, covered and reserved. This same code of honor placed white women on a pedestal while giving away black women to a life of slavery and sexual exploitation. However, there were 2 sets of women barred form cult of true womenhood: poor women, because they worked outside of home and black women, who were not even considered full women. To conclude, women were meant for the home, away from all the influences of business and public affairs. Women were not fit for hard labor, the political life, or the business world.

laila [671]

Answer:

Treaty of Paris 1783

Explanation:

John Monroe was an American diplomat, lawyer and statesman who was elected as the fifth president of the United States of America, he served from 1817 to 1825. President Monroe was born on the 28th of April, 1758 in Monroe Hall, Virginia, United States of America.

After the War of 1812, the United States of America and Great Britain had series of improved relationships with one another. These mutual relationships gave rise to the signing of the 1817 Rush-Bagot Pact and Convention of 1818 which played a significant role in the resolution of longstanding boundary disputes with respect to the 1783 Treaty of Paris.

Under President James Monroe, the 49th parallel was set as the boundary between the United States and Canada by Convention of 1818, which was signed on the 20th of October, 1818 in London, United Kingdom.

On the 22nd of December, 1823, President Monroe published the "Monroe Doctrine" in which European Colonialism in America was strongly prohibited and as such the Western Hemisphere was forbidden to the European powers.

The Treaty of Paris 1783 officially ended the American Revolution; British recognized United States as a free and independent country and gained the British Cession (lands west of the Appalachian Mountains to the Mississippi River).
