Answer:

Lincoln believed he had the power to emancipate the slaves in the Southern states because they were in an insurrection. Lincoln considered his emancipation proclamation that came into effect in 1863 as a military measure given his role as commander and chief.

Explanation:

Lincoln emancipated the slaves because slavery was viewed as an issue falling to each state government in the federal system. Emancipation under Lincoln was first applied in the District of Columbia in 1862 as the states that opposed it had left Congress in 1861. However, there had been discussions and disagreements on the issues of slavery in Congress for some time and lawmakers were trying to prevent any new adoption of the practice when California joined the Union as a non-slavery state in 1850. The slaves in other parts of the United States were freed by state-level action, or by the Thirteenth Amendment of the Constitution which was ratified in 1865. Every state was potentially different on this issue essentially, as for example the state of Vermont which had ended slavery in 1777 as an independent state and had no slavery legally sanctioned when it joined the Union in 1791.

Answer:

Germany attempt to exterminate the Jews

Explanation:

Let's understand this better. In a biblical explanation, the term holocaust means destruction (Shoah). In a historical explanation, it was Germany attempt to exterminate the Jews of Europe. The holocaust was a result of the anger and xenophobia created and increased during the years between wars (1920 and 1939). After the Crash of 1929 in the United States, European countries that were recovering after World War I, fall into an economic crisis. In the case of Germany, specifically, felt into an economic depression. The subsequent governments were unable to solve these problems, opening the way to Nazism. According to Hiter, the Jews were responsible for all the german problems. His conceptions, summarized in Mein Kampf, advocate that the Aryan race was superior, and all the other races were unworthy to live. This includes the jews, but more than just a "race", Hitler saw the jews as the bankers and businessman, the ones who had money, while the entire country was in depression. The antisemitism and the racism led to the holocaust, and the attempt to exterminate the problem.

How do classical Greek political structures compare with those of classical Rome

eimsori [14]

The ancient Roman and Greek civilizations had well-organized political processes that greatly influenced the manner in which later governments were structured in Europe and the United States. The system of political parties, the establishment of divisions in government -- even political words such as democracy, monarchy and tyranny -- originated in ancient Rome and Greece. Although Rome drew many of its political principles from the Greeks, and as a result, developed a government similar to that of Greece, there were several differences between the two.

Which of the following are good examples of the impact of cultural diffusion between muslim and european religions?

DENIUS [597]

A good example of the impact of cultural diffusion between Muslim and European religions is the improvements in physician training and the creation of hospitals. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 A.D,, most of the ancient Greek texts containing their development in medical knowledge and know-how were lost as a consequence of the constant conflict between the Germanic tribal warriors and the last remaining Roman troops and civilians. For centuries, the medical practice was as dangerous to the patients as were the wounds and diseases. Meanwhile, Arab scholars had not only been salvaging and translating the medical books of the ancient Greeks and Romans, but they were adding to this pre-existent knowledge and vastly improving the medical practice. Around the tenth century, a constant contraband of Arab texts, including on advanced medical knowledge and know-how, gradually helped Western doctors improve their treatments and procedures which resulted in more and more patients surviving wounds and diseases.

In the late Middle Ages, descriptions of the printing press used in China made it into Europe because of the Arabs. This Chinese printing press was rather expensive and complicated because every page of a book had to be individually carved on a wooden plate. However, a German printer, Johannes Gutenberg, came up with the idea of the "movable types": instead of carving one wooden plate per page, he would use a special plate with metal railings in such a way that he took letter by letter, mounting them between the railings, and thus complete a page that he would be able to print as many times as needed. Once the page was no longer needed, he would dismount the letter types and rearrange them to make the next page. Gutenberg's printing press of movable types turned book-making cheaper and knowledge easier to come by.
