Explanation:
Turning points are of great significance in periodization as they depict the beginning and end of remarkable events in history. A classical example of a turning point is evident in the the American revolution and the conquer of Britain by America in the war of 1812, and the consequent signing of the Treaty of Ghent. Also, the conquer of Babylon by Medo Persia was a turning point in history. Again, the end of colonialism in Africa was a turning point in history. Another classical example of turning point in history is the action of James Meredith in 1962, that changed the story of the African American, and led to an end to segregation in America.
C. the government began to insist that immigrants attend lessons in child care.
Answer:
The Civil War had a greater impact on American society and the polity than any other event in the country's history. It was also the most traumatic experience endured by any generation of Americans. At least more than 600,000 soldiers lost their lives in the war, at least 2% of the American population in 1861.
