Answer:

Answered below.

Explanation:

Panem et circences translated as, bread and entertainment, is a phrase that refers to superficial, ready, satisfaction and appeasement. That is, to gain public approval by providing the most immediate needs of the population, for example food and entertainment.

In 140BC, Roman politicians kept the votes of poorer citizens by giving out cheap entertainment and food and this method became a very reliable and effective way to get power.

Panem et circences was not a smart way to keep control of such a huge empire as the people would not hold politicians to do their work after having been enticed by food.

We can still find this in the poorer developing countries today. The leaders of these countries donate food to, and host parties for poorer people during elections to get their votes and get into power, while ignoring their duties to provide public service.

Answer:

A) that states had the constitutional right to secede from the United States

Explanation:

James Buchanan was the 15th president of USA. It was during his presidency that seven southern states seceded from the Union and brought the nation on the brink of civil war.  

He was from Pennsylvania and began his career in Pennsylvania state's legislature. He  later served in both the houses of the U.S congress.

Buchanan was a democrat and he morally opposed slavery while believing that it was supported by the US constitution.. He got elected to the White House in 1856.

He tried to maintain peace between the anti and pro slavery factions in the government.<u><em>  In 1856 general election Buchanan supported the idea that slavery was an issue to be decide by the individual territories and states while his challenger John Fremont asserted that the federal  government should bad slavery in all the territories.</em></u>

He did not seek reelection after his first term as president but he proposed that sates did not have the right to secede and he had no constitutional power to stop them. The slavery crisis was left for the Lincoln administration to resolve.

Support or defat that civil war was a second American revolution. back up your answer with evidence
yanalaym [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

Yes, the civil war was a second American revolution because it freed the nation from the clutches of the practice of slavery.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • The first American Revolution secured for the colonies independence from the unjust British administration and gave them the freedom to lead lives as free men of an independent country.
  • Similarly, the civil war brought the practice of slavery to an end and extended the concession of living freely to the yet more deprived classes of humans.
  • Hence, for the fact that both the movements dispensed freedom, it can be concluded that civil war was the second American Revolution.
