Answer:

states ratified the Thirteenth Amendment.

Explanation:

The Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution ('Amendment XIII') officially abolished and continues to prohibit slavery in the United States of America, and, with limited exceptions (such as those condemned for a crime) prohibited involuntary servitude.

At the time of ratification, slavery remained legal only in Delaware, Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland and New Jersey. In the rest of the United States the slaves had been freed by the state action and the "Emancipation Proclamation" of the federal government.

Abraham Lincoln (who had promulgated the Proclamation) and others were concerned that the Proclamation of Emancipation would be seen as a temporary measure only during the American Civil War, and, therefore, in addition to the liberation of slaves in those states where slavery It was still legal, they supported the Amendment as a means of guaranteeing the permanent abolition of slavery.

Answers important questions: What/Where/When/How/Why/Why Important? on Pompeii

taurus [48]

WHAT: POMPEII was a city of Ancient Rome.

WHEN: According to archaeologists and scientists who have studied the vestiges of this ancient city, it is believed that the first inhabitants of the area settled there in the 11th century BC. Although this is not the date of the foundation of the city, it would be closer to the seventh century BC.

WHERE: Pompeii is located a few kilometers from the city of Naples, housed at the foot of the volcano Vesuvius, one of the most transcendental volcanoes in the world given its history.

HOW: In the year 79 of our era Pompeii suffered one of the most violent natural disasters in the history of mankind. More than 2,000 people died instantly or were buried alive under a blanket of ash from the eruption of Vesuvius.

BECAUSE: It was buried by the violent eruption of Vesuvius on August 24 of the year 79 d. C.and many of its inhabitants died due to the pyroclastic flow. The current city of Pompeii rises nearby.

BECAUSE IT IS IMPORTANT: Its historical importance would not have gone beyond that of any other seat in the Roman world but for the terrible eruption of Vesuvius, which took place in 79 AD. As a consequence of the same, Pompeii and other places of the environs were buried by layers of lava and ashes. Many of the Pompeians were able to flee and protect their lives, but some of the inhabitants were buried and fossilized in time as well as the streets, temples, hot springs, homes or public buildings.

Pompeii was forgotten for more than fifteen centuries.
