The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The question refers to places that the United States had gained as a result of its victory over Spain during the Spanish-America War of 1898.

The newly acquired territories after that victory were Guam, the Philippines, and Puerto Rico. And those places initially served the US to establish naval ports that represented strategic military places.

The Spanish-America War started in April 1898, after the Spanish army sank the USS Main ship that was anchored in the shores of la Habana. The war ended in October 1898 with the signing of the Treaty of Paris.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

To what extent was any level of the government (national, state, or local) of 1786-87 able to carry out the functions for which government is established?

Well, the big issue in those years was that the Articles of Confederation -the first form of Constitution in the United States- left a weak central government that was very limited. It only could manage the post office and deal with the Native American Indian tribe's issues, among other minor things. The states remained sovereign and had more power. The states could collect money through taxation. And if the central government needed money, it had to ask for it from the states.

To what extent were the purpose(s) of government listed in the Preamble threatened by anarchy during this period?

The risk was major and the government realized this with the incidents of the Shay Rebellion in Massachusetts. The central government could not raise an army, and the Shay Rebellion was a tough lesson to learn.

That is why the delegates of the states participated in the Constitutional Convention of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, during the summer of 1787, to create a new form of government based in a new Constitution.

The First Battle of Bull Run was a great victory for the South.
Gnesinka [82]
<span>True.  Apart from being a great victory for the South, it was the first key battle of the Civil War.  The Union Army failed to quickly position themselves giving Confederate reinforcements the chance to strengthen their defenses resulting in a retreat of Federal troops.</span>
