Answer:

"Dred Scott Decision," which was very controversial.

Explanation:

DRED SCOTT DECISION where the Supreme Court ruling stated slaves did not have a right to sue since they were not citizens, but merely property.

These were their arguments.

Dred Scott:

When a person enters a free State or territory, the free status overrides the previous condition of servitude. Since slavery was forbidden in the free States and territories by

federal and State laws, Dred Scott became free when he entered Illinois and Wisconsin.

Sandford:

To deprive a person of property (in this case, Dred Scott) without due process or just compensation violated the 5th Amendment, which states that “No person shall be… deprived of life, liberty or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.” Dred Scott was still a slave and no master's property rights could be limited or taken away by a State or federal law.

Answer: [WORK IN PROGRESS]

Part A: [Based on Description]

The event that is shown in the painting reflects the fall of the Byzantine Empire because in this picture, it shows that the tall castle is surrounded by many soldiers. There is also many more soldiers waiting to attack when necessary on the boat. The soldiers waiting to attack have bows, swords, and/or shields, which means they are prepared to attack and block any attacks that come against them. You can see that some soldiers are using ladders to scale up the tower with defenders at the top waiting for them. The defenders are outnumbered by the amount of soldiers already climbing up the tower, soldiers on the ground, and soldiers on the boat. The defenders only have swords and daggers and possibly won't be ready for when the attackers start shooting their bows at them as they would not have the shields to block them.

Part B:

1. His constant wars and rebuilding of the Constantinople Cause financial problems. Justinian had scattered the Byzantine army across the empire. The empire suffered from several attacks of bubonic plague, which caused a severe shortage of human power, which weakened both the military and the government.

2. The location of the Byzantine Empire made it appealing to other places, meaning that the empire had to defend itself constantly as numerous people were attacking it so that they can get a piece of the territory. The armies that invaded the empire includes the Bulgars, the Muslim Caliphates, the Turkic People, the Mongols and the Ottomans. After each fight, the empire struggles more to keep up with the fights and have enough money to restock and resupply what they have.
