Answer:

C. Outstrip the Soviet Union's military capacity and force change

Explanation:

Reagan supported this massive military buildup, in part, because he did not believe that the Soviet Union could afford to spend as much on defense as the United States could.

It would lead to the Soviet Union being economically bankrupt.

His position was that if the Soviets did not remove the RSD-10 missiles (without a concession from the US), America would simply introduce the Pershing II missiles for a stronger bargaining position, and both missiles would be eliminated. One of Reagan's proposals was the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI).

By the time Reagan stepped down from the helm, he had expanded the U.S. military budget to a staggering 43% increase over the total expenditure during the height of the Vietnam war. That meant the increase of tens of thousands of troops, more weapons and equipment, not to mention a beefed-up intelligence program.

D.) Southern states rejoined the Union

The reconstruction era also allowed African Americans to gain education in the South, however, i dont think there were a lot of African Americans being able to achieve and keep equal rights.

The southern economy also grew slowly, as most of their lands were destroyed, and they had to rebuild.

NemiM [27]

"That the people inhabiting said territory do agree and declare, that they forever disclaim all right and title to the unappropriated public lands lying within said territory, and that the same shall be and remain at the sole and entire disposition of the United states of America" are the words of the Nevada constitution on public lands.

<u>Explanation:</u>

On the 1st Wednesday of September 1864, the constitution was approved by the vote of the people of the Territory of Nevada, and on October 31, 1864, President Lincoln proclaimed that the State of Nevada was admitted into the Union on an equal footing with the original states.

The Nevada constitution was patterned closely after the state constitution of California. The members of Nevada's second constitutional convention of 1864 proved to be a remarkably able group.
