<em>D. The slave trade was banned in Washington, D.C.</em>
Explanation:
After the Mexican-American War ended, the United States had a lot more territory to deal with. Slavery was always a huge debate during this time, but now that there were more territories, people started to get nervous about how the new territories would be split up into free and slave states.
The Compromise of 1850 were laws and compromises that set the field for the slavery situation in the new territories. These laws tried to be as fair and unbiased as possible, since slavery was controversial during this time.
With these laws, California was now a free state, the slave trade was now prohibited in Washington, D.C, and Texas lost New Mexico, but got money from the government in the process.
The Second Continental Congress succeeded the First Continental Congress, which met briefly during 1774, also in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The second Congress managed the colonial war effort, and moved slowly towards independence, adopting the United States Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. By raising armies, directing strategy, appointing diplomats, and making formal treaties, the Congress acted as the de facto national government of what became the United States.[1] With the ratification of the Articles of Confederation in 1781, the Congress became known as the Congress of the Confederation.
What the three cases have in common is that they were all victories for the people and their amendment guaranteed rights against states who wanted to obstruct those. The first case was about preventing states from limiting freedom of speech, the second was about preventing illegally obtained evidence from being used in court, and the third was that the states have an obligation to provide a lawyer to criminals if they can't pay for them.
The answer is A no question. The united did not side with the axis and they certainly were not neutral.
Answer:
a) Antony wants Caesar to forgive him for being nice to his conspirators.
c) Antony predicts that the land will be bloodied by men fighting men.
e) Antony expects Caesar's ghost to seek retribution for the wrongs done.
Explanation:
The given soliloquy of Antony in Act III scene i of William Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" is from the scene right after the death of Caesar. The scene shows Antony being given permission by Brutus to give a speech to the people about Caesar.
In the speech, Antony seeks <em>"pardon"</em> to the corpse of Caesar for being <em>"meek and gentle with these butchers"</em> who had murdered him. He prophesied that the land will be full of war, man fighting against the men who had done the murderous deed,
<em>"Domestic fury and fierce civil strife
</em>
<em>Shall cumber all the parts of Italy;
</em>
<em>Blood and destruction shall be so in use"</em>.
He also seeks retribution from Caesar's ghost for the wrongs that had been done to him. He invokes <em>"Caesar’s spirit, ranging for revenge [.....] hot from hell"</em>, will come and create havoc for the men responsible for his death.
Thus, the correct answers are options a), c) and e).
