1. The biggest issue dividing the U.S. in the years leading up to the Civil War was ____________ .
noname [10]

Answer:

1. Slavery

2. Republicans

3. Democrats

Explanation:

Slavery is the main reason the states fought and was a prevalent issue in the states for a long time mainly starting at the 3/5ths compromise. The two parties of Republican and Democrat were origianlly created as a single party, lead by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, but were split into the Whig Party and The Democrats after a political division inside the party about the election of 1824. In the mid-nineteenth century the Democrats were split on the issue of slavery and eventually the Democrats in the north (+ the Whig Party and some other politicians) joined together to make a new Republican party that was against slavery (leaving the southern Democrats as pro-slavery).

Why couldn’t African-Americans or poor White farmers start their own farms?
Mnenie [13.5K]
Although the tenant/sharecropping system is usually thought of as a development that occurred after the Civil War, this type of farming existed in antebellum Mississippi, especially in the areas of the state with few slaves or plantations, such as northeast Mississippi.

Not all whites who emigrated to even the poorest parts of Mississippi in the years before the Civil War had the funds to purchase a farm. As a result, most of the men who headed these households worked as tenant farmers or sharecroppers. Many rented land from or farmed on shares with family members and typically received favorable arrangements, but some antebellum tenants or sharecroppers had to deal with landlords who were primarily concerned with making profits rather than helping struggling farmers move toward landownership.

Consider the sharecropping arrangement that Richard Bridges of Marshall County worked out with his landlord, T. L. Treadwell, in the 1850s. Treadwell provided Bridges with land, livestock, and tools; the landlord also advanced Bridges some food. Bridges grew corn and cotton, and at the end of the year, he had to give Treadwell one-sixth of the corn he grew and five-sixths of the cotton raised. From his share of the crop, Bridges also had to pay Treadwell for the use of the livestock and tools and for the food advanced. Obviously, Bridges worked the entire year primarily for the food he needed to live. He had no opportunity to make any money from this arrangement and accumulate the capital that would allow him to purchase his own farm.

How did the location of the axis powers in europe contribute to their defeat
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Germany and Italy are located in the middle of the battle ground, which make them surrounded by the allied forces

Explanation:

At that time, both Germany and Italy were surrounded on the western front by United Kingdom and France. They had to face Soviet union's large army on the eastern front and united states keep pressuring them from the north. This make it really hard for the axist power to focus the troops for their defense which eventually led to their downfall.
