Answer:  States disagreed about whether slavery should be allowed in the new territories.

Explanation:

The Mexican Cession was the large region of land that Mexico ceded to the United States in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848.  It included territory that would later become the states of California, Nevada, Utah, and parts of what would become Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming.  The Mexican Cession reignited tension on the issue of slave-holding states vs. free states.

The Missouri Compromise (1820) had admitted Missouri into the Union as a slave state with Maine being added at the same time to keep the balance of slave and free states equal.  It also prohibited any future slave states north of the latitude line 36 1/2 degrees north of the equator in territories of the Louisiana Purchase, with the exception of Missouri (north of that line) being admitted as a slave state.  Since that latitude line ran right through the middle of the Mexican Cession territory, there was bound to be further debate over the issue of slave vs. free states.

What primarily caused Russians in the 1980s to fear that the Soviet Union would collapse?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

D.) Changes were occurring too rapidly

Explanation:

The conversion of the world's largest economy controlled by a state into a market-oriented economy has been extraordinarily complicated. The policies chosen for this difficult transition were liberalization, stabilization and privatization. These policies were based on the neoliberal "Washington Consensus" of the IMF, the World Bank and the United States Department of the Treasury.

The liberalization and stabilization programs were designed by Yeltsin Deputy Prime Minister Yegor Gaidar, a 35-year-old liberal economist bent on radical reform and well known as a "shock therapy" advocate. The shock therapy began days after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, when on January 2, 1992 the president of Russia Boris Yeltsin ordered the liberalization of foreign trade, prices and currency. This meant the elimination of price controls of the Soviet era in order to attract goods to empty Russian reserves. The legal barriers of the private market and manufacturing were removed, and subsidies for state farms and industries were cut while foreign imports were allowed on the Russian market, thus trying to put an end to the power of the state owner of local monopolies.

What plan did grant and Sherman have for the ending the war
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Grant and Sherman used the strategy of total war to shorten the war in their favor, using the many deaths of enemies to save live on their side. We way never know if more would have died if they didn’t use the tactic, but in my opinion civilian lives were not theirs to take. Did defeating the Confederacy justify harming civilians?
