The main way in which the principles of humanism and the Protestant reformation were similar is that they both start putting emphasis on the individual, as opposed to a divine group.
The successes of the Scientific Revolution, and Newton’s achievement in particular, provided inspiration to innovators for centuries to come. It was proof that we could advance knowledge, that we could understand the world, that science and mathematics were powerful tools. It was a down payment on Bacon’s promise: that life could be bettered through the discovery of useful knowledge.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The Compromise of 1850 was the result of the debate over the equal representation of pro-slavery States in Congress. With the Mexican Cession, the balance seemed to favor the abolitionist States. Therefore a crisis began, with the most important matter being the incorporation of California. President Taylor felt that the matter was used by the South as a bargain chip, and finally declared California a State. Clay then brokered the Compromise, and its results were administered by Franklin Pierce who supported the general lines of the Compromise, but failed in the end to address at full the growing abyss between slaver's States and the anti-slavery States. The result was the crisis of 1860 and the break of the Civil War.
