Meiji Restoration, in Japanese history, the political revolution in 1868 that brought about the final demise of the Tokugawa shogunate (military government)—thus ending the Edo (Tokugawa) period (1603–1867)—and, at least nominally, returned control of the country to direct imperial rule under Mutsuhito (the emperor Meiji). In a wider context, however, the Meiji Restoration of 1868 came to be identified with the subsequent era of major political, economic, and social change—the Meiji period (1868–1912)—that brought about the modernization and Westernization of the country.

The restoration event itself consisted of a coup d’état in the ancient imperial capital of Kyōto on January 3, 1868. The perpetrators announced the ouster of Tokugawa Yoshinobu (the last shogun)—who by late 1867 was no longer effectively in power—and proclaimed the young emperor to be the ruler of the Japan. Yoshinobu mounted a brief civil war that ended with his surrender to imperial forces in June 1869.

Answer: G. The addition of Hiram Rhodes Revels to the U.S. Senate

Explanation:

Hiram Rhodes Revels was the first black Senator in the United States and he represented Mississippi. On the day he was to be seated in the Senate, Southern Democrats opposed his seating thus prompting a debate that ended in a vote.

In this debate, Charles Sumner, a known anti-slavery Republican, uttered those words to reflect that the time had finally come to treat African Americans as equal as the Constitution intended.

Cattle drives were long and difficult: cowboys spent months on the trail, helping cattle to reach their destination while lookin

Crank

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following motivation: The biggest factor motivating ranchers and cowboys was a chance to make a profit on selling their herds. Following the Civil War, Texas experienced a large surplus of cattle. This meant that prices were very low. However, ranchers realized that they could sell their cattle for much higher prices in railroad cities, where high demand would send these cattle to Eastern and Midwestern states. Cattle drives led thousands of livestock north to railroad towns, and ranchers made huge profits on these herds.
