Why was Canada such an appealing place for runaway slaves to got to?

History

nignag [31]3 years ago
5 0

Hi, I'm pretty sure that is because for many slaves, Canada represented a dream of freedom where slave catchers and lynch mobs couldn’t hurt them. Slaves on the Underground Railroad endured months, and even years, of living like fugitives while bounty hunters and racist government policies were always trying to impede their flight to freedom.

Most slaves started out their journey on the Underground Railroad (which wasn’t an actual railroad but more of a resistance and escape route that was heavily organized by concerned American citizens) by running away from their plantation in the middle of the night. Often the runaway slave was alone, but on many occasions whole families would escape together.

Hope it helps you.

Which statement describes an impact of the collapse of the Western Roman Empire on Europe?
laila [671]

The correct answer is Option B) Former Roman lands were split up and claimed by Germanic kingdoms.



As the Roman Empire collapsed in Europe, the former lands were claimed by, fought over and split up among competing Germanic kingdoms.


Romans had conquered a large part of modern-day Europe and had defeated tens of little kingdoms and rulers. In modern terms the 'Western Roman Empire' consisted of countries such as Ireland, Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Turkey, Spain, Portugal, Bosnia, Hungary, etc.


However, as soon as the Roman Empire gradually collapsed, a power vacuum was quickly filed by the powerful governors, local nobility, and various powerful Germanic tribes.


For example, as soon as the Romans left Britannia, the local kingdoms in Wales, Scotland, England and Ireland started to take modern shape with local kings.
