Correct answer:  C) to preserve the balance between slave states and free states.

Let's cite a couple examples:  The Missouri Compromise (1820) admitted Missouri into the Union as a slave state with Maine being added at the same time to keep the balance of slave and free states equal.  It also prohibited any future slave states north of the latitude line 36 1/2 degrees north of the equator in territories of the Louisiana Purchase, with the exception of Missouri (north of that line) being admitted as a slave state.  

The Compromise of 1850 was passed after an attempt to have all new territories be non-slave states.  In 1846, Congressman David Wilmot of Pennsylvania introduced an amendment to an appropriations bill, stipulating  that any territory gained from Mexico (after winning war vs. Mexico) would be free, not allowing slavery.  [Don't think of Wilmot as an abolitionist, though.  He wanted new territories to be free of blacks, preferring whites-only territories.]   Wilmot's amendment passed in the House of Representatives, but was unable to get approval in the Senate.  The Compromise of 1850, a package of five bills passed by Congress in September of that year, sought to accommodate some of the issues both South and North were debating over during those years.  The balance between slave states and free states continued to be an issue.

<span>Good Morning!
 
1. It depends a lot on the period. Let us take into account the immigration that occurred in the past centuries, especially in the beginning of immigration to America. At this point, one can indicate the reason for the absence of land, since industrialization in England and in the countries around it, began to dispossess the small landowners. Letter a).
 
2. Nativism is the idea that immigrants must "become Americanized" (in the case of the United States). This idea preaches that the culture of the other is abolished and that the immigrant receives a new cultural charge. It is a materialization of intolerance. Letter D).

Which action is an example of the United States using economic influence as
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is Option B. Refusing to trade with a country until it improves its human rights  record.

Explanation:  

As one of the world’s most powerful trading partners, the United States has the power to shape trade relations in many parts of the world. Examples are the economic embargos that the United States has maintained against countries like Cuba and Iran because it does not support these regimes and wished to assert pressure for regime change.  But the embargos are also costly to the United States. For example, it is estimated that the embargo on Cuba costs the United States economy $1.2 billion per year in lost exports and sales.

Why was the indian removal act considered to be controvesial?
ivolga24 [154]
The Indian Removal Act took place in the first half of the 1800s under the presidencies of Andrew Jackson and Martin van Buren and directly led to the Trail of Tears, which resulted in the death of many members of tribes in the American South. It was considered controversial because the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the tribes' cause wherein the state of Georgia (which was actively seeking to evict the Indian inhabitants) was told it had no right to force their removal. Nevertheless, the president ordered their removal.

hope this helps! :)
