Question

Which statement best describes the general route of the Underground Railroad? (1 point)

Answer 1

The correct answer is A) It brought slaves to the North where slavery had been abolished.

The statement that best describes the general route of the Underground Railroad is, “It brought slaves to the North where slavery had been abolished.”

The Underground railroad operated before the Civil War. It was not a road at all, but a group of people that wanted to help slaves to other territories where slavery had been abolished. Basically were the Quakers, the group that formally helped African Americans to leave the slavery states. That is why the general route of the Underground Railroad brought slaves to the North where slavery had been abolished.
