Answer:

The 13th Amendment, adopted on December 18, 1865, officially abolished slavery, but freed Black peoples’ status in the post-war South remained precarious, and significant challenges awaited during the Reconstruction period.

Previously enslaved men and women received the rights of citizenship and the “equal protection” of the Constitution in the 14th Amendment and the right to vote in the 15th Amendment, but these provisions of Constitution were often ignored or violated, and it was difficult for Black citizens to gain a foothold in the post-war economy thanks to restrictive Black codes and regressive contractual arrangements such as sharecropping.

Despite seeing an unprecedented degree of Black participation in American political life, Reconstruction was ultimately frustrating for African Americans, and the rebirth of white supremacy—including the rise of racist organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan (KKK)—had triumphed in the South by 1877.

Almost a century later, resistance to the lingering racism and discrimination in America that began during the slavery era would lead to the civil rights movement of the 1960s, which would achieve the greatest political and social gains for Black Americans since Reconstruction.

"There would be an end to everything, were the sane man or the sane body...to exercise those three powers, that of enacting laws

<h2>Answer:</h2>

These words are part of Montesquieu's treatise The Spirit of the Laws. More specifically, they belong to the Chapter 6 ("Of the Constitution of Engand") of this treatise.

In this text, Montesquieu defends political liberty. Moreover, he argues that the best way of achieving it is by establishing the separation of the powers. In that way, Montesquieu believes that the different functions of government, that is to say the executive, legislative, and judicial functions, should be assigned to different bodies. Furthermore, he argues that liberty cannot be established in a nation where there is no separation of powers.

In the Middle Ages, Europeans’ lives were guided not by the laws of governments as we know them today, but by the unifying force
Elanso [62]

Answer:

C. Christian

Explanation:

During the Middle Ages, Europe was largely under the command of the Christian Church. The Church had very big power, political, social, economic, and it used it in its advantage in order to control pretty much everything on the continent where it had its power. This unfortunately led to the Middle Ages to become Dark Ages, as the Church was only interested about promoting what was in its interest in order to be more powerful, and it was using very violent methods if someone tried to oppose it. During this period, Europe regressed significantly, and the continent was largely isolated from any new inventions, technologies, scientific progress etc.
