The Inca road system formed a network known as the royal highway or qhapaq ñan, which became an invaluable part of the Inca empire, not only facilitating the movement of armies, people, and goods but also providing an important physical symbol of imperial control. Across plains, deserts, and mountains, the network connected settlements and administrative centres. Well-built and lasting, many roads included bridges, causeways, stairways,also had small stations (chaskiwasi) and sometimes larger, more luxurious complexes (tambos) dotted along every 20 km or so, where travellers could spend the night and refresh.

Describe the difference of views between the North and South on the Dred Scott court case. *

Rasek [7]

Answer:

Dred Scott was an enslaved African American, and his court case for freedom raised hostility between the south and the North.

Explanation:

Dred Scott was born inside slavery, and from 1833 to 1843, he resided in Illinois, where slavery was forbidden. Upon coming to Missouri, Dred Scott appealed for his freedom from slavery, insisting that his residence in non-slavery territory gave him free. As the case reached the Supreme Court, the tension further increases between North and South. Since the 1820s, two parties had compromised on the issue of slavery's expansion (the Missouri Compromise). The North was not happy with the court decision as they believed the case gave Southern slaveholders growing power. The Southerners pleased as they believed the North had no right to interfere with matters related to slavery.
