Around 1863, the Union States were looking for ideas about what to do after with Confederate States after they have lost in the Civil War. Lincoln proposed that 10% of the white men from Confederate States had to permanently recognize the freedom of the slaves. However, the Congress opted for the Wade-Davis Bill in 1864, which mentioned at least 50% of the white men had to recognize the freedom of the former slaves and grant them the right to vote. Lincoln did not sign this Bill, and that's why he "pocket veto" it.

Thus, the right answer is option d, the bill required a 50-percent oath of loyalty from citizens in a reconstructed state.

How does Lin describe economic relations between Britain and China? Which country benefits the most according to his view? Why i
amm1812

Justin Yifu Lin is a Chinese economist who is the author of the book "The Quest for Prosperity: How Developing Economies Can Take Off".

In his papers, Lin describes how the China, which many centuries ago was forced to enter a trade with Great Britain after the Opium Wars and was solely seen as a sourcing point, now faces a completely different reality in regards to commercial relations with the British.

The Chinese, whose strength relies on their massive and relatively cheap labor force, understood that the key to development was in acquiring knowledge that would let them thrive in the creation of their own industries. This process has been ongoing throughout the second half of the 20th century until nowadays, as British Enterprises set operations in Chinese Soil, employing Chinese citizens who would eventually benefit from all the knowledge they received. This process has resulted in the creation and incredible growth of global enterprises such as Hayer or Huawei.
