Here's what each of the events is in a basic rundown. I hope this helps
- The Missouri compromise banned slavery north of the 36th parallel (this didnt last long) while making Maine a free state and Missouri a slave state
- The compromise of 1850 abolished slave trade in Washington DC and made California a free state. (going against the Missouri compromise) It also allowed Utah and New Mexico to decide under popular sovereignty whether or not to be slave states (they didn't have much use for slaves because they couldn't grow much on plantations there) Slave trade was banned in the district of Columbia (but not the use of slaves itself) The law required law enforcement to capture and return fugitive slaves.
- The Kansas-Nebraska act allowed kansas and Nebraska to choose by popular sovereignty whether or not to be slave states (going against Missouri compromise)
- The Dred Scott v. Sandford case was about a slave that was taken from a slave state to a free territory and taken back to a slave state. He argued that he had been freed when he had been taken to the free territory. The court determined that "Persons of African descent cannot be, nor were ever intended to be, citizens under the U.S. Constitution" though black men could vote in 5 of the 13 states at that point. The case also ruled that the Missouri compromise was unconstitutional and Congress cannot ban slavery in territories. It has to be decided at the ratification of the state. The case also ruled that slaves are not freed by being taken or escaping to a free territory.
- The Fugitive Slave Act required any captured, escaped slaves to be returned to their masters and it required officials and citizens of free states to cooperate. people caught helping slaves were punished and suspected slaves couldn't ask for jury trial or testify on their own behalf. Also, officials were required to make arrests based off as little as a sworn testimony of ownership. This resulted in kidnapping and forcing freed blacks into slavery on false claims.
Answer:
The Atlantic slave trade had a negative impact on African societies and the long-term impoverishment of West Africa. For some it intensified effects already present among its rulers and kingdoms.
Explanation:
The use of African slave labour was not new. The Spanish and Portuguese had been using African slaves since the 16th century. However, the Atlantic slave trade of the 18th century was a new kind of slavery and was on a scale much greater than ever before.
The implications of the slave trade included:
Effects of the trade on African societies in West Africa
The slave sellers and European ‘factories’ on the West African coast
The development of slave-based states and economies
The destruction of societies
The development of foreign colonies
Leaders of African societies took roles in continuing the trade
In the American Revolutionary War, the British were fighting for themselves against the Americans and, further into the war, the French.
Latin America as a region has about twelve countries, and they all have various level of economies, however, South America can be considered as an export-based economy. Statistically, 10% of the world's agricultural product export comes from South America, with a different climatic region different crops are been harvested from all over the region each year, also it should be noted that South America dominates the global market in coffee production. The main exports from Latin America are agricultural products and natural resources such as copper, iron, and petroleum.
However, the differences in the economy of South America can be found mainly in the manufacturing sector, out of the twelve countries, 80% of manufacturing in Latin America falls on Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico.
This shows that Agricultural products drives the economy to a large extent, and all the countries in the region depend on agriculture to boost their economy, however, the maufacturing sector lies in the hand of about three to four countries.
The Sugar Boycott was led by members of the Quaker faith, including important female voices such as Elizabeth Heyrick from Leicester who recognised the ways in which the sugar trade was helping to support the slave trade.
