In some instances, Federal officials expedited the naming process by furnishing the names themselves, and invariably the name would be the same as that of the freedman’s most recent master. But these appear to have been exceptional cases; the ex-slaves themselves usually took the initiative—like the Virginia mother who changed the name of her son from Jeff Davis, which was how the master had known him, to Thomas Grant, which seemed to suggest the freedom she was now exercising. Whatever names the freed slaves adopted, whether that of a previous master, a national leader, an occupational skill, a place of residence, or a color, they were most often making that decision themselves. That was what mattered.

Answer:
<h2>D. Europe</h2>
Explanation:
The western members of the Allies (Britain, France and the United States) and their wartime partner in the alliance, the Soviet Union, were at odds over how Europe would be governed after the war. The Western democracies wanted free and open elections in the countries of Eastern Europe coming out from under Nazi domination. The Soviet Union wanted states allied and aligned with it to prevent any future aggression against the USSR (like how Germany had invaded). The USSR ended up heavily influencing the Eastern European countries to align with communism, bringing them behind what Winston Churchill called "The Iron Curtain."
The situation of Germany itself was also a tension spot. Germany was divided between the four Allied nations (Britain, France, the USA, and the USSR). The British, French and American sectors combined their governance of West Germany and West Berlin. This prompted the Soviets to blockade Berlin (located within the Soviet sector of East Germany). The American side responded with the Berlin Airlift to keep West Berlin free of Soviet control.
All of these events were fueling tensions in the Cold War that was developing between the USA and its democratic allies and the USSR and its communist partners.
Thomas Hobbes believed that people were inherently suspicious of one another and in competition with one another. This led him to propose that government should have supreme authority over people in order to maintain security and a stable society.
John Locke argued that people were born as blank slates, open to learning all things by experience. Ultimately this meant Locke viewed human beings in a mostly positive way, and so his approach to government was to keep the people empowered to establish and regulate their own governments for the sake of building good societies.
Further explanation:
Both English philosophers believed there is a "social contract" -- that governments are formed by the will of the people. But their theories on why people want to live under governments were very different.
Thomas Hobbes published his political theory in <em>Leviathan</em> in 1651, following the chaos and destruction of the English Civil War. He saw human beings as naturally suspicious of one another, in competition with each other, and evil toward one another as a result. Forming a government meant giving up personal liberty, but gaining security against what would otherwise be a situation of every person at war with every other person.
John Locke published his <em>Two Treatises on Civil Government</em> in 1690, following the mostly peaceful transition of government power that was the Glorious Revolution in England. Locke believed people are born as blank slates--with no preexisting knowledge or moral leanings. Experience then guides them to the knowledge and the best form of life, and they choose to form governments to make life and society better.
In teaching the difference between Hobbes and Locke, I've often put it this way. If society were playground basketball, Hobbes believed you must have a referee who sets and enforces rules, or else the players will eventually get into heated arguments and bloody fights with one another, because people get nasty in competition that way. Locke believed you could have an enjoyable game of playground basketball without a referee, but a referee makes the game better because then any disputes that come up between players have a fair way of being resolved. Of course, Hobbes and Locke never actually wrote about basketball -- a game not invented until 1891 in America by James Naismith. But it's just an illustration I've used to try to show the difference of ideas between Hobbes and Locke. :-)
