The enslavement of african American taken from Africa
Imperialism, 1890-1914 By the late 19th century, many Americans had come to believe that it was their nation's manifest destiny not only to possess all of the North American continent but also to expand the United States' influence around the world.
The correct answer is B. The natural law emphasizes on the natural sense of moralities, and duties hat people have to live peacefully, positively and preserving of good. The lawmakers got inspired by this and thought about the role of government and the individual rights of the people, that would have impacted the prosperity in longer terms.
From what I can remember, states' rights was a large factor contributing to the Civil War. With Lincoln becoming president and representing the North, the Southern states seceded, leading to a war. The state governments of the South argued that since the Constitution and the federal government was created by the states, the federal government had no right to stop states from seceding. President Lincoln and other northerners disagreed and wanted to preserve the Union by stopping states from seceding.
After the war, I believe the South still disagreed on a strong federal government. They wanted to rule the area by themselves.
