<span><span>Dred Scott was a slave in Missouri. From 1833 to 1843, he resided in Illinois (a free state) and in an area of the Louisiana Territory, where slavery was forbidden by the Missouri Compromise of 1820. After returning to Missouri, Scott sued unsuccessfully in the Missouri courts for his freedom, claiming that his residence in free territory made him a free man. Scott then brought a new suit in federal court. Scott's master maintained that no pure-blooded Negro of African descent and the descendant of slaves could be a citizen in the sense of Article III of the Constitution.</span>

Neville Chamberlain was the Prime Minister of England from 1937-1940. Chamberlain is infamous for 'appeasing' to Germany's demands to restructure itself after paying its immense reparations for the first World War I. A large reason that he appeased to Germany's desire to revamp its military, economy, and expand its territory was so that he may focus on England's domestic affairs. Notably, he passed several acts and laws for the middle class, one giving workers a week off with pay (Holiday with Pay Act 1938), as well as passing the Factory's Act of 1937 which greatly helped working conditions for women and children and limiting hours of work. While he primarily wanted to focus on domestic affairs, his appeasement policy immensely backfired when Germany's power skyrocketed by the end of the 1930's.
