Abraham Lincoln, was the president of the United States from a period of time of four years (1861 to 1865), he was also a lawyer, and statesman. He was a skilled and one of the greatest orators in the United States history, giving hundreds of speeches that are still studied for their oratory and eloquence powers. In his speeches Lincoln defined democracy as the equal rights and equality of opportunity. However, he made a difference between basic natural rights like freedom from slavery and political and civil rights such as voting.

One of his most important speeches, was the one delivered after the Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863, in this speech not only he quoted that "<em>all men are created equal</em>", but also that "d<em>emocracy is a government of the people, by the people, and for the people</em>", meaning that is the people who confer higher power and exercise it directly or by their elected representatives under a free electoral system.

sukhopar [10]

In the twentieth century, urban areas were defined as communities of more than 2,500

Explanation:

During the Civil War, American cities expanded even faster as industrialisation and globalisation began. By the turn of the 20th century, the US eastern coast towns were almost inconceivable, and many of their inhabitants were still living in misery. Often extremely corrupt is their local government, police forces, and companies.

Apart from this increase of urbanisation, the US has become more and more global since its foundation. More than 3/5 of the US population today resides in an urban area (usually defined as an integrated region with a minimum population of 2,500) and much less than a quarter is living in a rural area.
