Harlem is a large neighborhood in the New York City borough of Manhattan. It is also known under the name of <em>Black Mecca</em>. It is a major African American residential, cultural and businesses centre.

It was originally settled by the Dutch in 1658 and remained undeveloped territory for almost 200 years. It is named after the city of Haarlem in the Netherlands.

As New York's population grew, Harlem developed. Big urban progress was noted around 1880 when elevated railway lines were extended in that direction and many apartments buildings erected. Due to some unrealistic expectation many housing estates remained vacant and a major part of New York's black population were relocated there.

During 1920's, Harlem flourished with artistic and cultural expression and this period earned Harlem the distinction of  <em>' Harlem Renaissance</em>'. Many artists wanted to show the black culture and its achievements  to the world. They were proud of their African heritage. This outpouring of artistic work was unprecedented in the American -black community.

bogdanovich [222]

<u>Answer</u>:

At the First Battle of Bull Run: C. Led many to believe falsely that the war would be short since the Union achieved a  quick decisive victory

<u>Explanation</u>:

After listening to Scott’s “Anaconda Plan”, many people believed that the war would end quickly as possible because they thought the capture of Confederate capital at Richmond was only one hundred miles south of Washington.

In “Anaconda Plan”, Scott had strategized to subdue the confederate states by first strangling them in the west, by capturing New Orleans, and then blocking the southern ports along with the Eastern and gulf coasts with the help of U.S. Navy. The press had ridiculed Scott when they dubbed his anaconda plan.
