Answer:
The correct answer is C) Schenck v. the United States (1919)
Explanation:
The Schenck v. the United States (1919) case has great importance in the history of the country. Two activists, Elizabeth Baer and Charles Schenck were writing against the military draft.
They even distributed pamphlets discouraging people from joining the military and promoted a rebellion against forceful draft.
They were charged under the Espionage Act of 1917. In their defense, they stated how they were only practicing their right to free speech.
However, the Judge did not rule in their favour stating that a free speech is not protected under the first Amendment if it creates a 'clear and present danger'
The French and Indian War was the nine-year North American chapter of the Seven Years War. The conflict, the fourth such colonial war between the kingdoms of France and Great Britain, resulted in the British conquest of all of New France east of the Mississippi River, as well as Spanish Florida. The outcome was one of the most significant developments in the persistent Anglo-French Second Hundred Years' War. To compensate its ally, Spain, for its loss of Florida, France ceded its control of French Louisiana west of the Mississippi. France's colonial presence north of the Caribbean was reduced to the tiny islands of Saint Pierre and Miquelon.
