The Emancipation Proclamation.

Explanation:

The Emancipation Proclamation was officially given on January 1, 1863 and sought the end of slavery in the United States by President Abraham Lincoln.

There was a long battle between the Union and the Confederacy with slavery. The Union wanted to abolish slavery, while the Confederate states wanted to keep it, for numerous reasons. Southern states heavily relied on agriculture for wealth, they were not industrialized like the Northern states. The South made money growing cotton, tobacco, and sometimes indigo, this meant that they needed people, in this case slaves, to tend to these crops.

The Emancipation Proclamation did not work everywhere immediately, it took time to free the millions of slaves across the country, but in the end it did work. Lincoln also made sure to time this correctly to make sure he would gain support from the American citizens.

This also lead to the Thirteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution, which abolished slavery for good.

Why is it beneficial to buyers to have more than one major cell phone carrier?

r-ruslan [8.4K]

As we write this tip sheet, the government just approved the merger of Sprint and T-Mobile, which are two of the four biggest cell phone carriers. If Sprint and T-Mobile complete the merger, there will be three major carriers—AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile (which is what the combined Sprint and T-Mobile will be called). These carriers provide the best coverage and are the main players in the industry. Their coverage and plans differ from each other, so you’ll want to do some research to see which one provides the best coverage in your area, and which one offers the data plans that best meet your needs. But these are not the only options. There are other, smaller carriers that may provide coverage in your area, and offer plans that cost a lot less than the plans offered by AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. How do you find these other carriers? Try Googling for information on carriers and plans from reputable sources like Consumer Reports. Here’s a link to a 2019 Consumer Reports guide to low-cost cell-phone plans. Consumer Reports updates this information yearly. You can also get good information about plans from Whistle Out

Why did Arab nations pledge continued opposition to Israel after the Six-Day War?

Alika [10]

The answer is D) To forcibly remove Israeli control from the area.

The Israel-Arab conflict is one of the most complicated conflicts of the 20th and 21st century.

The six-day war was a military conflict between Israel and Egypt, Jordan and Syria.

By the end of war Israel saw a decisive victory, loosing just 1,000 men compared to 20,000 from the other armies. Israel was also able to take over large parts of lands from each country, famously the Golan heights.

Israel's reluctance to return this land eventually lead to continuing hostilities and the Yom Kippur War.
