<span>They support the construction because Prior to this, long-distance travel was slow, and the spread of goods and information was nearly nonexistent between faraway states. 
This make it difficult for producer such as farmers to distribute their products and sell it other people outside their area.
The Development of transcontinental railroad cut down both the cost of production and the time of delivery of the farmers. On top of that, the construction also provides a lof of labor jobs for the people.</span>

<span>Factors that include support for the transcontinental railroad include trade routes, as the panama canal was not built yet. The United States was going through a period of Manifest Destiny, in which Americans believed they were entitled to the land in the west. The Gold Rush and rapidly expanding California desired to be linked to the already established east coast.</span>

The 6 key elements of Magna Carta are described according to specific clause. These include the following: 
a. The first clause of Magna Carta guarantees the freedom of the English Church. This implies separation of church and government, so there will be no inclusion of church in politics or vice versa. 
b. Clause 13,  the city of London shall enjoy all its ancient liberties and free customs, both by land and by water. As an example, they have the right to choose its own mayor -- political freedom.
c. Clause 39, established the idea that people could only be judged according to the law, and that even the king himself had to follow the law. It stipulates that a person should be judged by a group of their equals (not by the king or his men). The same concept that someone isn't convicted unless found guilty on the court. 
d. Clause 40: “To no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or justice.” It ensures that nobody will be deprived of their rights, or have to pay for their rights, or be made to suffer by waiting for their rights. This should be a constant reminder for politicians or ay government body nowadays as well as for the future.
e. Clause 12, the king could not demand new taxes without first obtaining the approval of the key people in his kingdom. A country can get indecency using this clause, by not being under the control of other countries.  
f. Clause 61, the barons the right form a committee who would monitor the king and take action against him if he failed to honor his agreement to them and to the freemen of his kingdom. This is still existent nowadays as there are different bodies of the government, in which they must go hand in hand to do what is rightful.

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

The practice of restricting movement and assembly of African Americans, is the right answer.

The laws passed in the years between 1865 and 1866 by the southern states of the U.S. following the Civil War, were known as the Black Codes. These laws were enacted to define the freedom of African Americans and to enforce them to operate in a labor economy on low payments. Black Codes were part of a more extensive model of Southern whites seeking to control political dominance and crush the freedmen, recently freed African-American serfs.

Charges of human rights violations clouded U.S. relations with China. True or False?
LekaFEV [45]
This indeed is true. When the United States of America accused China of human rights violations this without any doubt negatively affected the way how these two mighty nations conversed with each others and how the diplomatic relationships continued.
