What did many people in the North believe after the Supreme Court’s ruling in the Scott v. Sandford case?

History

The correct answer is A) Slavery might become legal everywhere.

The Dred Scott vs. Sandford case was an important Supreme Court case about the rights of slaves in American society. In this case, Dred Scott was a slave who was brought to live in the free territory of Illinois. After his master passed away, he sued for his freedom. He argued that since he lived in a free territory, he should be free.

However, the Supreme Court ruled that slaves are not citizens, therefor they do not have the right to file lawsuits against their owners. Along with this, it also ruled that slave owners could bring their slaves wherever they want. This is because slaves are considered property not people. This is why Northerners feared slavery being legal everywhere, as there was now nothing stopping slave owners from bringing their slaves to the North.

Anti-Federalists argued that?
lys-0071 [83]

The correct answer is: Option B. It was impossible to separate government into equal branches.

The Anti-Federalists stated that a strong, centralized federal government would equate tyranny, and therefore its powers needed to be divided in separate branches. These individuals sought to minimize the power of the centralized government, and at the same time, provide more to the state governments.

Why was the demand for enslaved people so high?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: As soon as Europeans began to settle in America, in the early 16th century, they imported enslaved Africans to work for them. As European settlement grew, so did the demand for enslaved people. Over the next 300 years more than 11 million enslaved people were transported across the Atlantic from Africa to America and the West Indies, and Britain led this trade from the mid-17th century onwards. Ports such as Bristol, Liverpool and Glasgow sent out many slaving ships each year, bringing great prosperity to their owners. Many other cities also grew rich on the profits of industries which depended on slave-produced materials such as cotton, sugar and tobacco.
