Stamp act:

an act of the British Parliament in 1765 that exacted revenue from the American colonies by imposing a stamp duty on newspapers and legal and commercial documents. Colonial opposition led to the act's repeal in 1766 and helped encourage the revolutionary movement against the Crown. Or, an act regulating stamp duty (a tax on the legal recognition of documents).

Boston Massacre:

a riot in Boston (March 5, 1770) arising from the resentment of Boston colonists toward British troops quartered in the city, in which the troops fired on the mob and killed several persons.

Boston Tea Party:

a raid on three British ships in Boston Harbor (December 16, 1773) in which Boston colonists, disguised as Indians, threw the contents of several hundred chests of tea into the harbor as a protest against British taxes on tea and against the monopoly granted the East India Company.

shepuryov [24]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The first test case for Reconstruction took place on Sea Island or Port Royal in South Carolina in 1861, where the Union Army tried to redistribute land to the freedmen.

We are talking about a moment in the history of the United States in 1861, when the Union Army invaded and capture Sea Island, in South Carolina. There they established a project called "Port Royal Experiment." The Union made this place a work center for former slaves that worked the farm fields that had been left behind by southern landlords. Historians think that 9000 to 10,000 black people stayed on the island when white people abandon it due to the Civil War.

Do states give up all power to withdraw when they join a union of states
Sauron [17]

Yes.

Although the constitution does not mention the issue of secession, The Supreme Court has consistently interpreted the Constitution to be an "indestructible" union.  The states cannot leave the Union. There is no legal basis a state can point to for unilaterally seceding.
