Answer:

First because Washington, D.C. was the capital city, and second because the slave trade was not seen as a good thing by the eyes of the foreign.

Explanation:

England was the first country in the world to free its slaves (in 1826), and then it began to compelled other countries to follow the example. But the United States did not make this until the 1860s, and slave trade was common in American cities. In Washington, D.C., however, as the capital city, it was something bigger. It was the center of the abolitionist campaign, but this was in contrast with the slave trade and slave markets.

Hey Guys need your help!!
TiliK225 [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Ada Blackjack was a woman from Alaska, who was part of the 1921 expedition in Wrangel Island. The expedition went out smoothly until the beginning of 1923 when the crew ran out of supplies and food. As other crew members left the ship to find help, she stayed with another crew member, Knight. He became very ill from scurvy and Blackjack took care of him.

After six months of severe illness, Knight died. Ada had to survive on her own. She had to endure many difficult circumstances. His only motivation to keep on was the image of her son and her determination to see him again. That is what made her survive the difficulties.

Ada was finally rescued in August 1923. For her character, instincts, and determination, some historians called her the female Robinson Crusoe.
