BULL RUN <span>On July 21, 1861, Union and Confederate armies clashed near Manassas Junction, Virginia, in the first major land battle of the American Civil War. Known as the First Battle of Bull Run (or Manassas), the engagement began when about 35,000 Union troops marched from the federal capital in Washington, D.C. to strike a Confederate force of 20,000 along a small river known as Bull Run. After fighting on the defensive for most of the day, the rebels rallied and were able to break the Union right flank, sending the Federals into a chaotic retreat towards Washington. The Confederate victory gave the South a surge of confidence and shocked many in the North, who realized the war would not be won as easily as they had hoped.

VICKSBURG The Battle of Vicksburg, Mississippi, also called the Siege of Vicksburg, was the culmination of a long land and naval campaign by Union forces to capture a key strategic position during the American Civil War. President Abraham Lincoln recognized the significance of the town situated on a 200-foot bluff above the Mississippi River. He said, "Vicksburg is the key, the war can never be brought to a close until that key is in our pocket." Capturing Vicksburg would sever the Trans-Mississippi Confederacy from that east of the Mississippi River and open the river to Northern traffic along its entire length
FORT SUMPTER <span>Fort Sumter is an island fortification located in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina. Originally constructed in 1829 as a coastal garrison, Fort Sumter is most famous for being the site of the first shots of the Civil War (1861-65). U.S. Major Robert Anderson occupied the unfinished fort in December 1860 following South Carolina’s secession from the Union, initiating a standoff with the state’s militia forces. When President Abraham Lincoln announced plans to resupply the fort, Confederate General P.G.T. Beauregard bombarded Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861. After a 34-hour exchange of artillery fire, Anderson and 86 soldiers surrendered the fort on April 13. Confederate troops then occupied Fort Sumter for nearly four years, resisting several bombardments by Union forces before abandoning the garrison prior to William T. Sherman’s capture of Charleston in February 1865. After the Civil War, Fort Sumter was restored by the U.S. military and manned during the Spanish-American War (1898), World War I (1914-18) and World War II (1939-45).

Answer:
American Indians failed to make use of the land, so it was acceptable for Europeans to take it and use it.
Explanation:
Answer:
By examining graves at Chaco Canyon, archaeologists found evidence of warfare, cannibalism and scalping. There was also evidence that shelters were built in protected places, possibly to defend themselves against enemies.
Explanation:
The archaeologists discovered that over time there were fewer and fewer pinion and juniper trees. Then, the trees completely disappeared. Since pinion and juniper were used for firewood and food, that means that humans had to adapt to living in treeless scrub. When trees are cut down, the land is warmed more by the sun, creating dryer, hotter weather. The packrat nests also showed us that game was getting scarce and that people were eating rabbits and mice instead of deer.
The government of India can be described as a federal republic while that of China can be described as a dictatorship where human rights are limited.
<h3>How are China and India different in governance?</h3>
China's government is headed by the totalitarian Communist Party where all power is virtually vested on the Premier who is currently Xi Jinping. This makes it a dictatorship where individual freedoms and human rights are limited.
India on the other hand, is a federal republic which means that citizens are able to elect their leaders. They also have a constitution that guarantees human rights and individual freedom.
