The correct answer is C. The proclamation only applied to the Confederacy

Explanation:

The Emancipation Proclamation was approved in 1863, and through this, President Lincoln ordered slaves needed to be freed in the Confederacy states, which were Southern states in rebellion. This caused slaves to be freed in areas were the Union (Northern states) had control; however, slavery continued in areas in the rebel states and some border areas. Because of this, in 1865, the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution was ratified, and through this slavery was officially abolished in all the states of the United States. Thus, a national law was needed because " The proclamation only applied to the Confederacy."

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

c.a trial by a jury of one’s peers and double jeopardy

Explanation:

The two elements of the United States’s legal system that can be traced to Roman law is "a trial by a jury of one’s peers and double jeopardy."

This is evident in the fact that in the Roman republic, the trial by a jury of one's peers is well established whereby citizens are judged by their fellow citizens rather than the Emperor or King.

Also, double jeopardy is established in roman law that a person declared acquittal by a judge in a criminal case is exempted from further proceedings under the same charges.
