Explanation:
Dred Scott was born inside slavery, and from 1833 to 1843, he resided in Illinois, where slavery was forbidden. Upon coming to Missouri, Dred Scott appealed for his freedom from slavery, insisting that his residence in non-slavery territory gave him free. As the case reached the Supreme Court, the tension further increases between North and South. Since the 1820s, two parties had compromised on the issue of slavery's expansion (the Missouri Compromise).

The Mayas were one of the most famous civilizations of that area. They had big cities that covered southern Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras. Because of their big knowledge of astronomy and mathematics, they built pyramids and huge cities that are still there. Different from The Olmec, they had poor soil and no large rivers.
The Teotihuacán in the highlands of Mexico surrounded by mountains had several lakes. They had a big agricultural village.
The Aztecs settled in an island on the shore of a lake. they built food production creating floating islands of soil. They ruled most of the Mesoamerica and mixed their traditions with The Olmecs.
