Slavery would’ve probably been around a lot longer
Answer: a) the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
Explanation:
The State of Southern Carolina began it's Secession Declaration by stating that... "<em>deems it due to herself, to the remaining United States of America, and to the nations of the world, that she should declare the immediate causes which have led to this act</em>". This invalidates option D because they believe themselves obliged to declare their reason for seeking independence.
The Declaration then speaks on the notion that Governments are established by humans to aid them to certain ends. End which if not met, constitute a just cause to remove the Government from power. This invalidates option B.
In the last part of the Declaration, South Carolina alluded to its reasons for seeking independence being that the Northern Non-slave states had violated statutes that required them to return slaves who escaped from a slave state. This invalidates Option C.
Option A was never alluded to in the Secession Declaration of South Carolina and little wonder why. As a state that was in support of slavery, to maintain that all people had<em> the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, </em>they would have been invalidating the institution of slavery and so they abstained from emphasising it.
Wanted to unite all of South America into a single nation--> Simon Bolivar
Led a large group of American Indians and Mestizos against the Spanish--> Padre Miguel Hidalgo
Defeated Napoleons army to win independence from France--> Toussaint L'Ouverture
Supported Brazil's independence after Portugal was invaded by France--> Dom Pedro
These leaders were responsible for gaining the independence of their countries and/or regions from European colonial leaders. Bolivar liberated South America from Spain and Hidalgo did so for Mexico as well. L'Ourverture led the revolution in Haiti against the French. Pedro supported the only bloodless revolution in Brazil from the Portuguese. All of these movements occurred in the early 1800's which almost entirely ended 300 years of colonization in the Americas
