Answer:

A. commander-in-chief of the military.

Explanation:

The Emancipation Proclamation was issued mainly as a directive for the Union Army, so it was basically military in its character. It affected only slaves living in the rebel states of the Confederacy, not those living in slave-states that had remained loyal to the Union. But I think President Abraham Lincoln acted in different capacities at the same time, they can´t be unlinked. Besides being the US armed forces commander-in-chief, he was the chief executive of government.

How did the environment affect the lifestyles of early American people
tiny-mole [99]

The environment greatly impacted Native American Indians in many different ways. The reason for this is the way in which the Indians used the environment and the surrounding lands of the area in order to survive. There was a close relationship between the Indians and nature, and as a result, any change in nature would mean a change in the Indians as well.

It is important to note that the Indians had a very different view of land than the white man. In those times, the land was sacred, there was no ownership, and there was a powerful spirit that had created it. During the time of the White settlers, on the other hand, they were not allowed to sell their land. However, the White settlers could fence off their land and sell it freely to anyone they wanted. In their eyes, the Europeans didn't think the Indians were using the land properly. Therefore, they believed that they were doing the earth a favor by doing so. Even though the land did not belong to the Indians, it was more valuable than the white man's money.

Native Americans were found all over the continent of America, living in a variety of environments, from the flatlands to the forests, from the mountains to the deserts, from the prairies to the coasts, and even in the arctic. This environment affected the different tribes in different ways, so that the different tribes evolved over time in response to all these changes.
