The answer would be the first choice "<span>National sentiment did not favor polygamy, and Congress did not want to upset the public." Furthermore, as explained in the Section 1-2 of the Oklahoma Constitution:

"</span>Perfect toleration of religious sentiment shall be secured, and no inhabitant of the State shall ever be abused in person or property on account of his or her mode of religious worship; and no religious test shall be required for the exercise of civil or political rights. Polygamous or plural marriages are forever prohibited."

The correct answer is C) Both New Mexico and Arizona were applying for statehood, but the federal government was wary of the large polygamous populations in the area.

It was required that the Oklahoma Constitution included a clause to making polygamy illegal because both New Mexico and Arizona, were applying for statehood, but the federal government was wary of the large polygamous populations in the area.

The Oklahoma Constitution of 1907 provided many good things such as protection to workers, although prohibited women the right to vote. The Constitution included solutions to problems demanded by progressists such as unemployment and poverty. Regarding marriage, legislators had to include a clause for making polygamy illegal. Today, polygamy is illegal in the United States, except for the Mormons.

Answer:

Regulator Movement in mid-eighteenth-century North Carolina was a rebellion initiated by residents of the colony's inland region, or backcountry, who believed that royal government officials were charging them excessive fees, falsifying records, and engaging in other mistreatments. The movement's name refers to the desire of these citizens to regulate their own affairs. An unfair system of taxation prevailed under which less productive land, such as that in the western and Mountain regions, was taxed at the same rate as the more fertile, level soil of the Coastal Plain. These and other hardships contributed to the Regulators' feelings of sectional discrimination and deep distrust of authorities rooted in eastern North Carolina. Led by men such as Rednap Howell, James Hunter, and Herman Husband—considered the movement's chief spokesman—the Regulators organized a resistance to these abuses, first through protest and ultimately through violence.

Answer:

It's Union

Explanation:

The Union was the northern cluster of states that wanted to stay with the United States during the Civil War. What we now call the South would be considered the Confederacy, which wanted to leave the United States and be on their own for many different reasons including taxes and slavery.
