<span>Planter families were quickly decimated during the Civil War. Union blockades prevented southern plantations from exporting cotton, tobacco, indigo and other major crop they grew. Also, most of the Civil War was fought in the South, with armies often plundering planter homes for supplies, along with freeing the slaves that made up much of their wealth. At the end of the war, the southern gentry/aristocracy that planter families made up was gone.</span>
The biggest criticism towards the United Nations goes for:
- It can be corrupt; there's accusations towards the United Nations very often that it is corrupt, and that it serves mostly in the interest of the United States and the western world in general, and objectively speaking it does look that way more often than not.
- It is often ineffective; there's countless examples of the inefficiency of the United Nations, and lots of those kind of seem like the United Nations don't want to solve. Simple example is the name issue between the Republic of Macedonia and Greece. Even though in the law of the United Nations stands that every country has the right to choose its own name and no one can forbid it, and even though the Republic of Macedonia won in the International court over the issue, Greece is blocking its northern neighbor to get into the organizations like NATO and the EU because they are not allowing the term Macedonia to be included in the name of the country. The United Nations did literally nothing to force Greece to respect the law of the organization which they are obliged to do.

Paul said that the Gentiles will listen to the message of Salvation, to the leading men of the Jews.
Explanation:
The reference of this instance can be found in the book of Acts 28:17-31.
<u>After the ship, on which Paul was traveling, was wintered on an island, he was taken to Rome. So, when he arrived there he called the leaders of Jews to preach the message of salvation, that comes from believing in Christ. After Paul explained to them the message of Christ, some Jews believed on the message while others rejected</u>.
To this Paul said to the leading men of the Jews that the message of salvation will be listened by Gentiles. [Acts 28:28] (Paul was appointed by God to preach among the Gentiles.)
Thus according to Paul, Gentiles will listen to the message of salvation.
