What was the wilmot proviso, and how did it impact the national debate over slavery?.

Mila [183]

David Wilmot was a Pennsylvania-born congressman who opposed slavery. His "proviso"—a clause tacked on to a number of legislation being debated in Congress—prohibited slavery in all of the new territory won from Mexico following the Mexican War. Although the proviso was well-liked in the North, it was vehemently opposed by the South and never became a part of the legislation. It declared that slavery would be outlawed in any new area that the United States might take over from Mexico. The argument over whether slavery still exists in the West was rekindled.

amm1812

The state was Russian in all but name. They had complete control.

These were the reasons that made Russia come to the conclusion it did.

By the end of the 1800s, how did most Americans view industrialists?

Digiron [165]

Answer: Near the end of the 1800s, Americans viewed the industrialists as robber barons and did not hold trust in them.

Explanation:

Many of the industrialists crossed the line and hoarded their money and did not make it in a positive manner. Many lied, cheated, and were linked to old money. There were two types of industrialists, Robber Barons were the untrusted, and then the ones who actually made a positive living and helped others were called, Captains of Industry.
