2. Why do you think the election of Abe Lincoln in 1860 ultimately led to the Civil War?

History
1 answer:
nikdorinn [45]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A former Whig, Lincoln ran on a political platform opposed to the expansion of slavery in the territories. His election served as the immediate impetus for the outbreak of the Civil War. After being sworn in as president, Lincoln refused to accept any resolution that would result in Southern secession from the Union.

Explanation:

The dominant party, the Democratic Party, had split into two sectional factions, with each promoting its own candidate. ... The Constitutional Union Party was also new; 1860 was the first and only time the party ran a candidate for president. The results of the 1860 election pushed the nation into war.

- Painters, sculptors, and architects drew inspiration from the Greeks and Romans

- Classical Greek and Latin values encouraged humanists to reconsider medieval ethical teaching

-Despite these missionaries, in the eastern Mediterranean region, Christianity was still a minority religion.

Interactions

- Portuguese mariners soon dominated trade between Europe and Asia, since they attempted to control all-shipping in the Indian Ocean.

- Authorities decided to freeze wages and forbid workers to leave their homes due to epidemics.

- Rulers in both lands took asserted authority of central government of nobility

Technology

-By the mid-thirteenth century gunpowder had reached Europe and Europeans began to experiment with it.

- Muslims introduced sugarcane to European crusaders, who instantly enjoyed the accessibility of refined sugar which led to the increased demand for plantation workers and slaves.

- Roman architects had built domed, but their technology and engineering did not survive the collapse of the Roman empire.

- Brunelleschi's dome as a symbol of the city's wealth and its leadership in artistic and cultural affairs.

Economic

-The development of fresh sources of finance, usually through new taxes levied directly on citizens and subjects.

- Promoted the manufacture of porcelain, lacquerware, fine silk, and cotton textiles.

- The new rulers conscripted laborers to rebuild irrigation systems that had fallen into disrepair during the previous century, and agricultural production.

- Mongol conquests destroyed and brought upon economic decline of many cities

- Zheng He's voyages demonstrated clearly that China could exercise military, political, and economic influence throughout the Indian Ocean basin.

Demography

-Around 1300 C.E. a global climatic change caused temperatures to decline throughout the world called the Little Ice Age

-This caused agricultural production to slow dramatically, leading to famine and even starvation.

-Mongols, merchants, and other travelers helped to spread the Bubonic Plague along trade routes.

-China's population reduced by 10 million through the 70 years of the epidemic plague.

-Europe's population reduced by 25%, but later when the plague settled down the population went back almost 2x their original size.
