A, Slaves provided much of the labor on plantations that grew cash crops would be the answer I would go with. Most slaves worked in crop fields, and iron working didn't become prominent in the US until the industrial revolution about 10 years after the Civil War. I cannot say I'm 100% certain, but the others to me don't seem to make sense when looking at the situation.

Tanya [424]

Answer:

A) accepted many of the reforms but revolted against French control.

Explanation:

Napoleon wanted to spread the revolution throughout the world. He desired to put down princes and kings in Europe. He tried to subject Europe under his hegemony. The result was a succession of war. <u>Once under his power, the controlled country passed by several political and social changes. Napoleon Code gave the freedom of private property, civil marriage, equality by law, and individual freedom.</u> These reforms were well received by the controlled countries, the problem is that <u>Napoleon put his relatives to rule, causing revolts because of the irresponsibility of these governors to be rulers, but for the most part, these revolts were resulted by the withdrawal from the already traditional monarchical governments in the controlled countries.</u>
