Provisions of the Kansas-Nebraska Act
What did the Kansas-Nebraska Act do? The provisions of the Kansas-Nebraska Act were:

The new territories were established as Kansas in the south and Nebraska in the north opening new lands for settlement

Their boundaries and limits Kansas and Nebraska were defined

The settlers would decide (popular sovereignty) whether or not to have slavery

What was the reason for Kansas-Nebraska Act? The existing area was organized as a territory and settlers would not move move westward into Nebraska and Kansas because they could not legally hold a claim on the land. The Kansas-Nebraska Act would allow them to claim ownership.

The Kansas-Nebraska Act related to the issue of existing Free States and the existing Slave States. 

The Missouri Compromise of 1820 had declared that Missouri be admitted as a slave state and and Maine be admitted as a slave state, maintaining a balance between 'free soil' and 'slave soil'. The Missouri Compromise of 1820 also prohibited the extension of slavery north of the 36°30′ latitude, as indicated on the map

The Compromise of 1850 provided that California be admitted as a free state and The territories of Utah and New Mexico had been opened to the people to decide by Popular Sovereignty whether their states favored or opposed slavery as indicated on the map, contravening the Missouri Compromise

In 1854 the Kansas and Nebraska territories were the next areas subjected to a dispute over the issue of slavery

<u>Answer</u>:

At the First Battle of Bull Run: C. Led many to believe falsely that the war would be short since the Union achieved a  quick decisive victory

<u>Explanation</u>:

After listening to Scott’s “Anaconda Plan”, many people believed that the war would end quickly as possible because they thought the capture of Confederate capital at Richmond was only one hundred miles south of Washington.

In “Anaconda Plan”, Scott had strategized to subdue the confederate states by first strangling them in the west, by capturing New Orleans, and then blocking the southern ports along with the Eastern and gulf coasts with the help of U.S. Navy. The press had ridiculed Scott when they dubbed his anaconda plan.

What obstacles did reformers in the late 19th century face when they wanted to improve public education?
diamong [38]
In the 19th century, there was an existing tutorial system made by Joseph Lancaster and Andrew Bell as a program for the school. Students who are achievers teach the low achievers to catch up with their classes. Although it was a good plan, poor monitoring was evident. Parents blame the school for not teaching Orthodox Christian religion, where submission is taught
