Answer:

By raiding Harper's Ferry, John Brown was hoping to provide arms to the slaves.

Explanation:

John Brown was an avid abolitionist who believed that the only way to overthrow slavery was by armed insurrection. After bleeding Kansas and the Dred Scott case, in 1856 Brown attacked Pottawatomie (Franklin County), where he killed five alleged slaveholders. He was then considered a criminal, but abolitionists considered him a hero. He decided to hide from the justice system and develop a plan of further action.

On October 16, 1859, with the support of about twenty people, he invaded the town of Harper’s Ferry. Brown's unit reached the town, killed the mayor and captured the weapons magazine located there. Slaves, however, did not support the uprising, while the state police and marines detached the warehouse easily and suppressed the rebellion. Some of the attackers were killed, while the rest were arrested and brought to court. Brown and his colleagues were accused of treason, plotting and murders, and the court sentenced them to death.

Why did President Grover Cleveland refuse to sign the treaty that allowed the United States to annex Hawaii?
maks197457 [2]
He was an anti-imperialist and believe the US overstepped in Hawaii.

The marines had forced the queen of Hawaii to give up her thrown and took over the island country. They brought an annexation request to Congress and before it could be considered, Cleveland removed the request from consideration. He believed the US overstepped and stepped on the rights of the Hawaii people. Cleveland tried to put the queen back in power through his presidency but eventually McKinley would push through the annexation during his presidency.

What advice was given to the farmers as to how to treat the diseased potatoes?
Korolek [52]
The advice given to those affected by the potato blight bordered on the absurd. One scientist advised people to get hold of chloric acid and manganese dioxide. This mixture should have been been added to salt and applied to the diseased area of the potato.

What are the consequences of second world war​
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

There are tons of consequences

Explanation:

For starters, huge swathes of land were utterly devastated from the fighting, many countries were divided up between the allies (i.e Germany, Korea).

Also, the Americans and Soviets began competing over which system was better (capitalism or communism?) which only furthered world tensions and damage. The war also left many economies devastated from putting so much into their militaries.

Many population centers were completely obliterated (70 - 80 million casualties in ww2). And in many countries new dictators and tyrants were able to take over and just make life worse for their already struggling people.
