The correct answer is A) Grant was given time to be able to set up a defensive position in this location.

At the Hornet's Nest, Grant informed the commanders that they were to hold that position for as long as possible. It was so important that they were able to do this because Grant was given time to be able to set up a defensive position in this location.

We are referring to the Shiloh battle that started on April 6, 1862, and ended one day after. Hornet's Nest was the nickname of the place of the battle in southwestern Tennesse. More specifically, in Pittsburg Landing in Hardin County, Tennesse. Union's General Ulysses S. Grant defeated Confederate troops led by Albert Sydney Johnston.

In February 1869, Congress approved the 15th Amendment (adopted in 1870), which guaranteed that a citizen’s right to vote would not be denied “on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.”

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Because they were worried about the power that the common people had over the state governments, they wanted to reduce those governments' powers.
