Nady [450]3 years ago

To understand the end of Reconstruction, it's important to take the following facts into account:

  1. 1872: The General Amnesty Act was passed by the Congress. This act removed restrictions placed upon Confederate officials.
  2. 1873: the Fourteenth Amendment was scarcely interpreted in the Slaughterhouse cases. This meant that state law was violationg individuals' civil rights.
  3. 1875: The Civil Rights Act of this year, which allowed black people to be part of a jury and which didn't allow racial discrimination in public places, was eventually not enforced.
  4. Finally in 1876 the idea of the Reconstruction was left aside by both parties and in 1883 the Civil Rights Act was declared unconstitutional.

All of these reasons, caused the end of the Reconstruction and made Republicans forsake black people, finally causing the infringement of civil rights and full segregation.

How did the entry of the United States into World War I influence the conflict?
madam [21]

Answer:

It helped Allies stop a German offensive and support a counteroffensive that led to Germany's defeat.

Explanation:

I'm not entirely sure of the answer, but through the process of elimination I've made my way here. I know it's not the first one, because although we had a poorly trained military, we were not short on supplies.

I know it's not the third one, because obviously the United States entering the war had an effect on it. Even though there was a German blockade we most likely could've gotten through it.

It's probably not four because saying that the United States entering the war immediately caused the capture of Berlin is a bit extreme- all though the United States entering the war caused it to end quickly, it was still around a year.
