Prior to Maine admission to the union as a free state, how many states were in the northern section of the country
Answer:
11 States
Explanation:
In 1820 before Maine was admitted to the union as a free state, there were 22 states with half of them free states and half of them slave states. Also, both South and North having eleven states each.
Thus, on March 3, 1820, the votes that allowed the Maine into the Union as a free state was conducted in the House, and at the same time, Missouri was admitted as a slave state, and also made free soil all western territories north of Missouri’s southern border.
Hence, the correct answer is Eleven (11) states
Answer:
Obergefell v. Hodges
Loving v. Virginia
Roe v. Wade
Explanation:
Obergefell v. Hodges & Loving v. Virginia were Supreme Court cases that had to do with marriage. <u><em>Obergefell v. Hodges</em></u> was the most recent case in 2015, ruling that same-sex couples have the constitutional right to marry. <u><em>Loving v. Virginia</em></u> (1967) was a case that outlawed the segregation-era ban on interracial marriage. Both cases ruled that the protections were guaranteed under the Equal Protection & Due Process Clauses in the 14th Amendment.
Roe v. Wade (1973) is a more disputed case, but the original ruling guaranteed a woman's right to abort her baby. The Due Process Clause regarding privacy was again argued here.
Answer:
the status of the Philippines and Cuba
Explanation:
The Treaty of Paris ended the Spanish-American War that saw the United States claim the Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico as part of their territory. Also Cuba became independent of its colonizers(spain) which was mostly one of the reasons for the war as America fought to free them from the rule of Spain. Spain was also compensated $20 million dollars in losses suffered. However shortly after United States take over of the Philippines, there was a resistance from Filipinos stemming from the critic of United States' hypocritical stance in seizing a territory for itself while after critizing Spain and other European powers for colonization. The resulting war saw over 4000 American casualties.
When we did the intervention we also set ourselves up for disaster due to putting a border on Mexico making it more attractive to come illegally thru America and we deport alot of them what's hypocritical about that is if we had not put a border and not Intervened into Mexicos business, America and Mexico would have hashed out a proper plan and have made the legal idea of moving to America the only reason to go there.
the answer is d all the other ones dont even make sense
