The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist organization that emerged in the United States at the turn of 1865 to 1866, shortly after the American Civil War. This group was created to <u>promote the ideals of white supremacism, racist ideals that promote segregation and hatred against blacks</u>. The group emerged with the intention of attacking blacks and civil rights defenders for African Americans.
The Klan, as it is called, was responsible for committing violent acts, such as burning houses inhabited by African-Americans, beatings, hangings, etc. Its members wore hoods and a white garment and had a cross as a symbol. In their meetings and attacks, they also set crosses on fire.
Klan's performance took place in three distinct phases, the third being the phase of the organization's current functioning. Klan today is a very small terrorist group. It has a few dozen cells spread throughout the American territory and a few thousand members

The doctrine of popular sovereignty was used. That meant that people in those states could choose to vote to support slavery and since they were majority then slavery would be permitted. There were even states that were at first non-slave states but then things changed and they voted to introduce slavery into the state and people voted for this and supported this.
Imperialism is a political and military philosophy in which one country or government seeks to conquer other countries and societies and bring them under the control or influence of the invading country.
Imperialism is often associated with the economic theory of mercantilism, in which the conquering country (known as the metropole) becomes the center of manufacturing and production while the conquered countries (the colonies) become the suppliers of raw natural goods. Under a mercantilist system, the point of having colonies is to enrich the metropole.
Imperialism takes a number of forms. There's settler colonialism, where a metropole established colonies to gather raw goods or resources (New York and Jamestown are examples). There's religious imperialism, in which a country invades other countries for the purposes of spreading a religion (Spain was infamous for this) or establishes religious communities abroad (as in Massachusetts Bay).
Imperialism has also existed for ages and ages. The Romans are one famous example, but virtually every country in Western Europe (France, Britain, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Belgium, etc) had an empire at one point. But so did the Japanese, the Russians, the Zulus, and the Comanches.
