I believe it’s the military is compensated for hiring slaves because Lincoln was a advocate for slaves and if there were hired Lincoln gave the military money to support the Slaves
Chapter one of The Great Gatsby introduces the narrator, Nick Carraway, and establishes the context and setting of the novel. Nick begins by explaining his own situation. He has moved from the Midwest to West Egg, a town on Long Island, NY. The novel is set in the years following WWI, and begins in 1922. Nick served in the army in WWI, and now that he is home has decided to move east and try to become a bond trader on Wall Street. Nick is a graduate of Yale, and grew up in a wealthy family. He is what is considered "old rich," and feels he is superior to those who have recently earned great fortunes, the "new rich."
Hope this helps :)
B. Sketching a setting. It is a stage in which you have to answer questions about the main character. Sometimes you can answer questions about other characters, but take into account that they have to be relevant questions.
Taking into consideration that a plot complication is when a further detail is revealed regarding the conflict. Said detail can be directly related to the conflict or simply be an inconvenience representing further difficulty to solving the central conflict. In Arthur Miller's The Crucible, act 2, lines 419–431, Mary is defending herself from John Proctor's threat to whip her by her argument on how she saved Elizabeth's life (Proctor's wife) by being present in Salem on that day. The fact that Elizabeth has been accused is a complication because it shows a new detail about the central conflict of the play. If the main conflict is revealing the fake nature of the witch trials, the complication revealed here is that Abigail is the one accusing Elizabeth (considered an honorable woman)<span> to take her place as Proctor's wife (lines 490-499). </span>
