Answer:

All northern states had abolished slavery by 1830, however, in the South, slavery was more important and widespread than ever. The economy of the South depended on the slave labor working in cotton plantations.

Explanation:

This led to bitter disagreements between the North and the South about slavery. Some compromises were reached but the tensions continued.

The most important was the Missouri Compromise, which allowed Missouri to enter the union as a slavery state in exchange for the entrance of Maine as a free state. Besides, the Missouri Compromise prohibited slavery above the 36° parallel in the new territories. If this held true today, Arizona, New Mexico, and Southern California would be slave states.

Abraham Lincoln and the new Republican Party opposed slavery in all new U.S. territories, whether they were below the 36° parallel or not. When Lincoln was elected president, the South saw him as a threat for slavery in the South even if Lincoln neven explicitely said that he wanted to abolish slavery in all U.S. states.

This led to the secession of several southern states, the creation of the Confederacy, and finally, the Civil War.

Methods dictators used after WWI to rise to power
allsm [11]

Dictatorships are often unexpected.  They have arisen among prosperous, educated and cultured people who seemed safe from a dictatorship – in Europe, Asia and South America.

Consider Germany, one of the most paradoxical and dramatic cases.

During the late 19th century, it was widely considered to have the best educational system in the world.  If any educational system could inoculate people from barbarism, surely Germany would have led the way.  It had early childhood education -- kindergarten.  Secondary schools emphasized cultural training.  Germans developed modern research universities.  Germans were especially distinguished for their achievements in science – just think of Karl Benz who invented the gasoline-powered automobile, Rudolf Diesel who invented the compression-ignition engine, Heinrich Hertz who proved the existence of electromagnetic waves, Wilhelm Conrad Rőntgen who invented x-rays, Friedrich August Kekulé who developed the theory of chemical structure, Paul Ehrlich who produced the first medicinal treatment for syphilis and, of course, theoretical physicist Albert Einstein.  It’s no wonder so many American scholars went to German universities for their degrees during the 19th century.

After World War I, German university enrollment soared.  By 1931, it reached 120,000 versus a maximum of  73,000 before the war.  Government provided full scholarships for poor students with ability.  As one chronicler reported, a scholarship student “pays no fees at the university, his textbooks are free, and on most purchases which he makes, for clothing, medical treatment, transportation and tickets to theaters and concerts, he receives substantial reductions in price, and a student may get wholesome food sufficient to keep body and soul together.”

While there was some German anti-Semitic agitation during the late 19th century, Germany didn’t seem the most likely place for it to flourish.  Russia, after all, had pogroms – anti-Jewish rioting and persecution – for decades.  Russia’s Bolshevik regime dedicated itself to hatred – Karl Marx’s hatred for the “bourgeoisie” whom he blamed for society’s ills.  Lenin and his successor Stalin pushed that philosophy farther, exterminating the so-called “rich” who came to include peasants with one cow.
