Explanation: Ok so, The Fourteenth Amendment affirmed the new rights of freed women and men in 1868. The law stated that everyone born in the United States, including former slaves, was an American citizen. No state could pass a law that took away their rights to “life, liberty, or property.”  Women fought to use the 14th Amendment because it stated that  everyone born in the United States, including former slaves, was an American citizen. No state could pass a law that took away their rights to “life, liberty, or property.”

A main result of bacon’s rebellion was that?
sergiy2304 [10]
<span> Bacon's Rebellion was the result of discontent among backcountry farmers who had taken the law into their own hands against government corruption and oppression. Many Virginians were debtors. Borrowing on the strength of paper money was stopped by the British Government, leading to more discontent against the merchant classes. Many of the supporters of the rebellion were indentured servants and slaves, who were a majority of Virginia's population.

Historians have pointed out that one of the most important reforms made during Bacon's government was the recognition of the right to bear arms, so that the common man could defend himself from hostile Indians but also to oppose a despotic regime. After Berkeley's resumption of power, this right was one of the first he repealed. Miller suggests it was Bacon's Rebellion that may have served as one of the motives for later colonists' insistence the right to bear arms. Historian Stephen Saunders Webb suggests that Bacon's Rebellion was a revolution, with roots in the English Civil War and with consequences including the American Revolutionary War.

It was largely the slaves, servants and poor farmers (many of whom were former indentured servants) who rebelled. Before the rebellion, African slaves were rare in Virginia, mainly due to their expense and the lack of slave traders bringing Africans to Virginia. Many Africans were brought as indentured servants, becoming free after serving their term of labor. While indentured servants from Europe continued to play a role in Virginia after the rebellion, African slave imports grew rapidly and new laws made slavery lifelong and passed on to one's children, creating a racially-based class system with Africans at the bottom and even the poorest European indentured servants above. This broke the common interest between the poor English and the Africans of Virginia which had existed during Bacon's Rebellion.

The rebellion strengthened the ties between Virginia south of the James River and the Albemarle Settlements in present-day North Carolina, while creating a long-lasting animosity between the two colonies' governments. The Albemarle region offered refuge for rebels in the aftermath. In the longer term, North Carolina offered an alternative to colonists disenchanted with Virginia. </span>

The United States gave Vietnam the reconstruction aid promised by Richard Nixon.<br> True<br> False
Triss [41]

It is false that The United States gave Vietnam the reconstruction aid promised by Richard Nixon.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The war that happened between the United States of America and Vietnam, led to a lot of destruction in  the country of Vietnam. Following the destruction, the president Richard promised an aid of $3 billion for reconstruction of Vietnam.

The administration of Gerald Ford started on August 9, 1974, when Gerald Ford became President of the United States upon the acquiescence of Richard Nixon from office, and finished on January 20, 1977, a time of 895 days. After the war, Vietnam requested the recreation help guaranteed by Nixon.

But then with Richard going out of power and Washington becoming the new president, did not fulfill the promise of Richard and rejected the call of Dong for giving aid to Vietnam and normalizing the relations between the two countries of Vietnam and United States.
