5 0

Answer:

The potato blight/the potato famine of the mid 1800s in ireland devestated the country and its people. The potato crops were decimated, and many people died of starvation. This caused mass starvation, as potaos were the manin staple and food source of the irish people. They immigrated to the US in search of a better life and the american dream. There were rumors of more plentiful food and crops in the US, which was a good thing for the farmers and their families. They wanted better loves for their children, and they wouldnt have to depend on the one cash crop of potatos, when they can depend of things like tabacco, indigo, and rice and sugar cane.

Which of the following reforms in the second new deal helped millions of retired Americans with financial difficulties?
KengaRu [80]
The correct answer is the Social Security Act of 1935.

Before this time period, giving financial assistance to elderly individuals was a policy left up to the local and state governments. However, due to the national impact of the Great Depression, Roosevelt knew he needed to help the millions of elderly American citizens who suffered during this era. This is where the Social Security Act comes in.

This act allows the federal government to give direct financial assistance to elderly American citizens. Along with this, it gave benefits to people injured in industrial accidents and mothers who had dependents.

9966 [12]

Answer:

There were relatively few slaves or large plantations in these regions

Explanation:

The Civil War in the United States began in 1861, after decades of simmering tensions between northern and southern states over slavery, states’ rights and westward expansion.

Growing abolitionist sentiment in the North after the 1830s and northern opposition to slavery’s extension into the new western territories led many southerners to fear that the existence of slavery in America and thus the backbone of their economy was in danger.

On September 17, the Army of the Potomac hit Lee’s forces (reinforced by Jackson’s) in what became the war’s bloodiest single day of fighting. Total casualties at the Battle of Antietam (also known as the Battle of Sharpsburg) numbered 12,410 of some 69,000 troops on the Union side, and 13,724 of around 52,000 for the Confederates.
