History

 <span>They drafted, or conscripted, most of their troops. For the North, it was the first draft in U.S. history and not well received (see the New York Draft Riots). The Union draft also allowed men to pay others to take their place in the draft. 

The Southern draft was enforced by the Confederate Home Guard, technically made up of men too old or too young to serve at the front. My ggggrandfather was a native of Winston County, Alabama, and was shot in the back when he refused the Home Guard's request that he report the Confederate Army. (Winston County, btw, tried to succeed from Alabama when Alabama succeeded from the Union earning it the name of the Free State of Winston.) 

Early on, both sides filled their armies with volunteers. However, as the war went on and casulties mounted, volunteers became few and far between, resulting in the draft. 

There were no mercenary units recruited by either the North or South to fill the armies. However, Union recruitment officers made a point to greet incoming immigrant ships and impress military-age immigrants into the army.</span>

Which ancient civilization is associated with the Twelve Tables, an extensive road system, and the poets Horace and Virgil?
Aloiza [94]
Roman civilization is associated with the Twelve Tables, an extensive road system, and the poets Horace and Virgil. The twelve tables was actually created in order to make a universal law for consistency. These tables were actually created to protect a certain category of people like the plebeians and patricians. These laws actually were made to protect the poor plebeians from whom many rich people wanted to take away all the money. The road system of the Roman Empire was also very extensively created for use of the Romans.

Prior to dropping the bombs the United States brought Japan close to defeat by
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The revisionists argue that Japan was already ready to surrender before the atomic bombs. ... The sticking point for the Japanese was retaining the emperor in his position. It is unclear if they would have accepted the reduction of the emperor to a figurehead, as eventually happened after the war.The radiation in Hiroshima and Nagasaki today is on a par with the extremely low levels of background radiation (natural radioactivity) present anywhere on Earth. It has no effect on human bodies.The article contains graphic images and details some people may find upsetting. The recorded death tolls are estimates, but it is thought that about 140,000 of Hiroshima's 350,000 population were killed in the blast, and that at least 74,000 people died in Nagasaki.

4, now covered by the New Safe Confinement, is estimated to remain highly radioactive for up to 20,000 years. Some also predict that the current confinement facility might have to be replaced again within 30 years, depending on conditions, as many believe the area cannot be truly cleaned, but only contained.
