Answer:

Advantages of the North:

  • Population: the North had 22 million people at the start of the civil war, while the south had 9 million, less than half. This proved crucial because it allowed the North to field larger armies over a longer period of time (especially when soldiers began to die in large numbers).
  • Industry: the North was industrializing, while the South was essentially agricultural. This meant that the North had better supply lines, more railways, and more factories.
  • Leadership: most historians agree that Abraham Lincoln was a far more effective leader than Jefferson Davis.

The South had many disadvantages and most historians agree that winning the war for the Confederacy was practically impossible, however one advtange the South had was:

  • Territory: the Confederacy was vast, rural, the climate was hot and humid, and tropical diseases were common. The northern soldiers had it harder to adapt to this conditions, and the North had to invade the vast territory while the Confederacy only had to defend.

Write three paragraphs that explain the importance of Justinian’s political, social, and architectural achievements. Explain wha
Anika [276]

Answer: Justinian was responsible for the construction of the Hagia Sophia, the center of Christianity in Constantinople. Even today, the Hagia Sophia is recognized as one of the greatest buildings in the world. Justinian also systematized the Roman legal code that served as the basis for law in the Byzantine Empire.

Emperor Justinian I was a master legislator. He reorganized the administration of the imperial government and outlawed the suffragia, or sale of provincial governorships. He also sponsored the Codex Justinianus (Code of Justinian) and directed the construction of several new cathedrals, including the Hagia Sophia

Some of his most notable achievements include Belisarius and Justinian's reconquering of lost territories, Justinian's Code which unified the empire under a single set of laws, and his Rebuilding of Constantinople into one of the best cities there ever was, after the Nika revolt destroyed most of it.
