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.

Though no exact casualty count for the war exists, it is thought that up to 85 million people were killed as a direct or indirect result of the conflict. The war involved all of the world’s great powers, and touched nearly every corner of the globe. On one side was the Axis, led by Germany, Italy, and Japan. On the other side were the Allies, led by the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and the Soviet Union. There were numerous reasons for the outbreak of the Second World War, from the megalomaniac ambitions of ruthless dictators, to the unprovoked attacks on countries that precipitated their entry into the war. Here are the main causes for the outbreak of WWII, humanity’s most destructive conflict.

Why would the early Americas be considered diverse or complex
Alenkasestr [34]
They were made up of the colonies. New England colonies were very conservative, not religiously tolerant, and a similar minded community. They banished a few people who threatened their community like Anne Hutchinson. The Chesapeake colonies were the most diverse and accepting because they were in between the Southern colonies and New England colonies. The Southern colonies were primarily made up of the slave population, which of course brought out the racist thoughts in the Caucasian people of the South.
