Why did Virginia lawmakers decide that slave status should pass through the mother’s (rather than fathers) line and would be una
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Virginian lawmakers decided that slave status should be defined by their mothers because many slave children were born of Englishmen and thus the decision of acknowledging a black to be slave or free was dependent on his/her mother's condition.

And, the other laws passed by Virginian lawmakers was that the state of slavery of black children is not altered by participating in Christian sacrament of baptism, as it does not change their condition of slavery.

Explanation:

During 1660s, the Virginian lawmakers passed certain laws concerning slaves and blacks in the state. These laws were made basically to slander them.

In December 1662, the law passed concerning whether a child should be considered slave or free if the father is a free Englishmen.<u> On this matter, the law was passed stating that a child's status of being slave or free would be dependent upon the condition of mother's status.</u> The status of being free was overruled in case of birth from free Englishmen. The act also stated that if any Christian come upon any Negro man or woman shall be deemed to double fine.

In September 1667, another law was passed concerning condition of slavery if a child was made to participate in Christian sacrament of baptism. <u>The law stated that a child's status od being free or slave does not change even if he participated in baptism</u>. It stated that their condition remains the same regardless of generous owners who made their children, born of slavewoman, participate in baptism.

These laws suggests that they were passed solely to keep the slaves in their slavery condition and does not give them any right to attain freedom.

Promotion within napoleon new bureaucracy was
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

based on ability only, not rank or birth

Explanation:

Napoleon Bonaparte was a prominent military leader during the <em>"French Revolution."</em> He reformed the French "bureaucracy" under his leadership by<u> appointing the members according to their abilities and not by rank or birth</u>. This allowed the citizens to have more equal opportunities of being chosen. So, this means that <em>even the </em><em>middle class</em><em> were given the chance to be appointed. </em>

Under his leadership, a new kind of aristocracy was made. This was based on "merit in the state service." So, this gave the <u>people in the military</u> and <u>people who hold upper ranks in the civil service</u> to become part of the noble class.

So, this explains the answer.
