The Progressive Era is considered from 1890 to 1920. The major role of the United States in global affairs during this period of time was its involvement in the war.
The military affairs of that time included the war with Spain, the war to conquer the Philippines and the entry into the First World War.
Until the beginning of the 20th. century, political affairs in the US used to follow Washington and Madison, guidelines of neutrality and nonintervention.
But in those times, European nations turned into imperialism, establishing colonies in different parts of the planet. Time passed by when Theodore Roosevelt, influenced by <em>The Influence of Sea Power Upon History</em>(written by Admiral Alfred Thayer in 1890), understood the potential of investing money in other countries, securing the interest of the U.S.
In the 1910-1920's, the United States government followed an intervention policy in the Caribbean and Central America, the Philippines and even President Wilson supported the Mexican revolution.
The U.S. government responded to its entrance into World War II "<span>c. by expanding government control over the economy" although many Japanese were interned. </span>
Too much power to the central government.
Answer:
poll workers having voters read aloud before voting to prove they could read
Explanation:
In the United States, the fifteenth amendment established the right of citizens of the US to vote regardless of race, color, or condition of servitude. It was ratified in 1870 after its passage by the Congress in 1869.
Hence, in the attempt of poll workers in the Southern states to continue segregation at the polling unit, the scenario that might have taken place at a southern state polling center in the wake of the Fifteenth Amendment being ratified is "poll workers having voters read aloud before voting to prove they could read."
