Answer:

Explanation:The name of the US acquisition is La Mesilla, a region that includes the states of Arizona and New Mexico and is known as Gadsden Purchase, in honor of James Gadsden, United States Ambassador to Mexico and who signed the treaty for his purchase on December 30, 1853.

Which event best shows the destruction of the natural landscape due to the settlement of the West?
Margarita [4]

The correct answer is:

Many settlers were unable to farm the Great Plains due to the challenges of working with the land.

The Great Plains land was not good for farming since it was very dry and flat. Settlers had to learn how to farm in that soil held together by grassroots, called sod. Settlers had to break through the sod to plant crops. Since there was not a lot of wood, they used sod to build homes.

Answer:

it was only a temporary solution to the argument between “free” and “slave” states

Explanation:

The Three-Fifths Compromise was an agreement that determined that every enslaved American would count as 3/5 of a person for taxation and representation in the Legislative. The compromise solved a problem between anti-slaves and pro-slave states for a short time. The Anti-Slave states argued that if slaves were not considered people and citizens they could not count as the population to representation and taxation matters, this opinion would hurt the slave's states, which had a big population of slaves. So the agreement was reached. The Compromise was a temporary solution because later, came the civil war which forced the 13th and 14th Amendments to pass, the 14th Amendment officially repealed the Compromise.

In which way did the Great Depression highlight the lack of civil rights in the 1930s
kogti [31]
Many African Americans where still living in poverty, and when the Great Depression hit, many white employers fired around 50% of African American workers. At this time, the KKK was very active too.
Another thing was that certain workers were still living in harsh conditions, so civil rights emerged in acts like strikes.
