  • Answer:

The people did not have immunity against the disease.

  • Explanation:

The Inca and Aztec peoples were developed societies in the central and southern americas. These people lived only in their territory and did not have antibodies with the antigens present in the bodies of the Europeans. Thus, unintentionally, the white man transmitted the smallpox virus to these communities, which were practically decimated by the disease. When a society is isolated, such as the Incas and Aztecs, a seemingly harmless antigen can cause devastation, precisely because people still do not have antibodies to fight the disease.

What was life like for free people after the civil war
jeka94

Answer:

. After slavery, state governments across the South instituted laws known as Black Codes. These laws granted certain legal rights to blacks, including the right to marry, own property, and sue in court

. Family, church, and school became centers of black life after slavery. The Freedmen’s Bureau (1865-1870), a government agency established to aid former slaves, oversaw some 3,000 schools across the South and ran hospitals and healthcare facilities for the freedmen.

. From the late 1860s white supremacists in the KKK (Ku Klux Klan) terrorized African American leaders and citizens in the South until, in 1871, the US Congress passed legislation that resulted in the arrest and imprisonment of Klan leaders and the end of the Klan’s terrorism of Americans for a time.
