Answer:
Abraham Lincoln became the United States' 16th President in 1861, issuing the Emancipation Proclamation that declared forever free those slaves within the Confederacy in 1863.
Explanation:
When the American Civil War began, president Abraham Lincoln was far less prepared for the task of commander in chief than his Southern adversary. Jefferson Davis had graduated from West Point (in the lowest third of his class, to be sure), commanded a regiment that fought intrepidly at Buena Vista in the Mexican War and served as secretary of war in the Franklin Pierce administration from 1853 to 1857. Lincoln's only military experience had come in 1832, when he was captain of a militia unit that saw no action in the Black Hawk War, which began when Sac and Fox Indians (led by the war chief Black Hawk) tried to return from Iowa to their ancestral homeland in Illinois in alleged violation of a treaty of removal they had signed. During Lincoln's one term in Congress, he mocked his military career in an 1848 speech. "Did you know I am a military hero?" he said. "I fought, bled and came away" after "charges upon the wild onions" and "a good many bloody struggles with the Musquetoes."
When he called state militia into federal service on April 15, 1861—following the Confederate bombardment of Fort Sumter—Lincoln therefore faced a steep learning curve as commander in chief. He was a quick study, however; his experience as a largely self-taught lawyer with a keen analytical mind who had mastered Euclidean geometry for mental exercise enabled him to learn quickly on the job. He read and absorbed works on military history and strategy; he observed the successes and failures of his own and the enemy's military commanders and drew apt conclusions; he made mistakes and learned from them; he applied his large quotient of common sense to slice through the obfuscations and excuses of military subordinates. By 1862 his grasp of strategy and operations was firm enough almost to justify the overstated but not entirely wrong conclusion of historian T. Harry Williams: "Lincoln stands out as a great war president, probably the greatest in our history, and a great natural strategist, a better one than any of his generals."
lol ik it's long but this part I took it from a magazine so understand ^^
Answer:
Roosevelt was accused of Bolshevism by his opponents, and many anti-crisis methods were sharply criticized. They criticized the direction of the New Deal against business; many rightly believed that the new policy hampered the restoration of the economic system. Despite all efforts, unemployment continued to increase: if it were not for the increase in salary costs caused by the New Deal, the unemployment rate in the country as of 1940 would be lower by 8 percentage points.
Ordinary citizens were directly affected by the increase in alcohol duties and wage deductions for social security. Roosevelt further increased the tax burden by raising income tax for individuals and legal entities, excise taxes, property taxes and donated property. He introduced undistributed profit tax. All these ‘requisitions’ led to a reduction in the amount of money that entrepreneurs could spend on expanding production and creating new jobs.

Answer:
1: A transform fault or transform boundary is a fault along a plate boundary where the motion is predominantly horizontal. It ends abruptly where it connects to another plate boundary, either another transform, a spreading ridge, or a subduction zone.
2: In geology, a fault is a planar fracture or discontinuity in a volume of rock across which there has been significant displacement as a result of rock-mass movements.
3: Covergent Boundaries
4: The tectonic plates are always slowly moving, but they get stuck at their edges due to friction. When the stress on the edge overcomes the friction, there is an earthquake that releases energy in waves that travel through the earth's crust and cause the shaking that we feel.

In 1917, the Balfour Declaration was issued by the British government. This paved way to have Jewish settlement in Palestine. It resulted to the bitterness between the Jews and the Arabs. The conflict still exists up to the present day.
Honestly no, I believe it was when American people needed someone to blame. So the blamed <span>Herbert Hoover, because he was the president at the time. You cannot blame someone because of the stock market.</span>
