Replacing the line with popular sovereignty for determining if a state is free or slave
Anika [276]3 years ago

Answer:   Allowing slavery's spread to areas that had been free for more than 30 years.

Explanation:

The Kansas-Nebraska Act enacted by Congress in 1854. It granted popular sovereignty to the people in the Kansas and Nebraska territories, letting them decide whether they'd allow slavery.  In essence, this made the Kansas-Nebraska act a repeal of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which had said there would be no slavery north of latitude 36°30´ except for Missouri.

After the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers rushed into Kansas to try to sway the outcome of the issue, and violence between the two sides occurred.  The term "bleeding Kansas" was used because of the bloodshed.  Kansas and Nebraska ended up as free states, but the Kansas-Nebraska Act had allowed the possibility that slavery could become slave states.

Why did napoleon sell Louisiana territory to the united states
Kruka [31]
There are actually two reasons why Napoleon did so. One was because he knew that if he had held on to it, the United States would start a conflict, and he didn't want that to happen. Also, this is the most important reason, by him helping the United States, and him helping the French treasury at the same time, Napoleon was able to create a world with so much power, that he was able to challenge Britain.

what factors lead to a civilization's growth, and how might environmental determinism influence these factors?
damaskus [11]
Access to food, water, shelter, and all basic human needs can hinder or help the growth of a civilization. Civilizations with similar environments or climates tend to develop on similar paths (because they run into the same problems/conveniences that have to be solved by human brains, which are wired to react to certain situations in certain ways.)
