The Abolitionist Movement had noble goals, and it was a movement that put the humanity in front the profit, which was very good and a huge step forward.

That didn't passed very well with lot of people though. Very large portion of the people were not willing to give up on their free labor force, thus lose big chunk of their profit if they had to pay the laborers. The racism was still at a very high level, and lot of people still looked at the slaves as people that are primitive, and as lower beings, so they were not very fond of the idea to have equal rights with them.

The problems were both inside the countries, and also international, as there were people in all countries that were for and against the movement, as well as some countries being for while other countries being against the movement's goals. That led to multiple conflicts, mostly external, but also raised the tensions between numerous countries with different opinions on the matter.

Explain the concept of popular sovereignty
musickatia [10]

After thousands of years of civilization, people realized that the notion of social classes was wrong. The reign of incompetent rulers now and then demonstrated that people in the lower and upper classes could behave pretty much the same. Also, the nobility, supposed to hold the responsibility of political power in exchange of protecting the commoners was nearly always neglected as to justify the nobles' privileges and superior social position. The short-lived Athenian democracy revolved in the minds of countless people throughout the years and inspired the modern democracies of today via the works of the Enlightenment free-thinkers who rejected the traditional hierarchical differences between individuals and advocated for a government of citizens that would serve society, not themselves. As the dissatisfaction of the colonists of the Thirteen British Colonies in America with the despotic impositions of the British government grew, a clear idea of a government serving the will of the people emerged, and that thought was best expressed by Lincoln's statement honoring the sacrifice of the Union soldiers at the Battle of Gettysburg: "A government of the people,for the people, and by the people."

In summary, popular sovereignty consists of a government supported by a Constitution and institutions listening to the needs and concerns of the people in order to act in consequence, this is, real democracy in action.

Explain some of the ways that war affected women
Vadim26 [7]
Women raise children and have to watch them go off into war which is obviously hard. Also women had to raise children and take care of farms while their husbands were away. Some women were used as spies. Women were probably devastated when their husbands die or grateful and happy if or when they returned. I hope this answers your question because I'm kind of confused on exactly what you're asking. :)

kogti [31]
If your friend is a business owner in a planned economy, then it would be the "central government" that decides how to allocate the productive resources he uses, since the government "plans" the economy as opposed to having supply and demand take place in the marketplace.
