History

hammer [34]3 years ago
6 0
This statement is true. Manumission is the act of freeing or emancipating slaves by slave owners, either voluntarily or for a price. It may be a sentimental or friendly gesture after his/her long years loyal services to his master. However, it may also be a threat to the slave to free him/her for lying or for other reasons.

What effect did the dred scott Supreme Court case have on dred Scott's freedom and on the Missouri compromise
olchik [2.2K]
The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in the Dred Scott case struck down the Missouri Compromise as unconstitutional, maintaining that Congress had no power to forbid or abolish slavery in the territories.


the court decided that all people of African ancestry -- slaves as well as those who were free -- could never become citizens of the United States and therefore could not sue in federal court. The court also ruled that the federal government did not have the power to prohibit slavery in its territories. Scott, needless to say, remained a slave.

Chandraguptra Mayura succeeded in uniting the Indian subcontinent through force. religion. modernization. exploitation.
Serjik [45]

Chandraguptra Maurya succeeded in uniting the Indian subcontinent through the use of force.

After deposing King Mahapadma Nanda of Magadha, he dominated much of northern India, creating the first great Indian empire, which was later extended by his son Bindusara and his grandson Aśoka. It is believed that he fought Alexander the Great when he invaded northern India.

Chandragupta created an empire that ran from the Indus River in the west to Bengal in the east. The first great confrontation of Chandragupta with a foreign monarch occurred when Seleucus I, one of the generals of Alexander who had inherited the eastern regions of his empire, tried to conquer India in 305 BC. Chandragupta managed to defeat Seleucus, after which all the lands west of the Indus until the present Kabul passed to Maury sovereignty.

(02.07) Mark uses an app that shows him how many kilometers he has run to prepare for a marathon. The app said he ran 9.654 kilo
Setler79 [48]
To convert kilometers to miles, you will need to divide. So, you need to divide 9.654 by 1.609 and get 6. Therefore, Mark ran 6 miles.

Hope this helps!
