explain how the Wilmot Proviso was so controversial in raising the debate over the slave issue again to such intense levels.
Pachacha [2.7K]

The Whigs faced a different scenario. The victory of James K. Polk (Democrat) over Henry Clay (Whig) in the 1844 presidential election had caught the southern Whigs by surprise. The key element of this defeat, which carried over into the congressional and local races in 1845 and 1846 throughout the South, was the party's failure to take a strong stand favoring Texas annexation. Southern Whigs were reluctant to repeat their mistakes on Texas, but, at the same time, Whigs from both sections realized that victory and territorial acquisition would again bring out the issue of slavery and the territories. In the South in particular, there was already the realization, or perhaps fear, that the old economic issues that had defined the Second Party System<span> were already dead. Their political goal was to avoid any sectional debate over slavery which would expose the sectional divisions within the party.</span>After an earlier attempt to acquire Texas by treaty had failed to receive the necessary two-thirds approval of the Senate, the United States annexed the Republic of Texas by a joint resolution of Congress that required simply a majority vote in each house of Congress. President John Tyler signed the bill on March 1, 1845, a few days before his term ended. As many expected, the annexation led to war with Mexico. After the capture of New Mexico and California in the first phases of the war, the political focus shifted to how much territory would be acquired from Mexico. The key to this was the determination of the future status of slavery in any new territory.

Both major political parties had labored long to keep divisive slavery issues out of national politics. The Democrats had generally been successful in portraying those within their party attempting to push a purely sectional issue as extremists that were well outside the normal scope of traditional politics.[2] However, midway through Polk's term, Democratic dissatisfaction with the administration was growing within the Martin Van Buren, or Barnburner, wing of the Democratic Party over other issues. Many felt that Van Buren had been unfairly denied the party's nomination in 1844 when southern delegates resurrected a convention rule, last used in 1832, requiring that the nominee had to receive two-thirds of the delegate votes. Many in the North were also upset with the Walker tariff which reduced the tariff rates; others were opposed to Polk's veto of a popular river and harbor improvements bill, and still others were upset over the Oregon settlement with Great Britain where it appeared that Polk did not pursue the northern territory with the same vigor he used to acquire Texas. Polk was seen more and more as enforcing strict party loyalty primarily to serve southern interests. Hope This Helps! Can I have Brainliest? Please:)

What development allowed hunter/gatherer groups of humans to build large cities?
yarga [219]

It would be the development in agricultural knowledge/technology

Development in agriculture enable hunter/gatherer society to shift their behavior. Before this, they had to keep moving from one place to another in order to seek food to live.

After the development in agricultural knowledge/technology, the society now can stay in one exact place for a long period of time and relied on agricultural product as their main source food.

After living in one same place for a long time, the needs to build things to accommodate their living start to arise. They start to built several things and repeat the process every year. In the end, large cities were developed from the initially small hunter/gatherer society.

BARSIC [14]

1) In this passage Cortez is describing in great details the temples, the natives’ religion and how he tried to convince them that there was only one God they should worship. At first natives protested but them accepted the rules imposed by the conqueror.  

2) Cortez describes in a very detailed version how the temples were built. He sounded surprised and amazed by the architecture of the temples as well as the decoration of idols. Evidence from the passage can be found in the following parts: “Among these temples there is one which far surpasses all the rest, whose grandeur of architectural details no human tongue is able to describe”, “The stone and wood of which they are constructed are so well wrought in every part, that nothing could be better done”, “Three halls are in this grand temple, which contain the principal idols; these are of wonderful extent and height, and admirable workmanship”.  

3) According to the excerpt, Cortez did not agree or understand the religion of the natives, especially the part of human sacrifices. He tried to convince natives that there was only one God and that there was not such a thing as receiving favors from the Idols.
