Answer:
One of the saddest facts about World War I is that millions died needlessly because military and civilian leaders were slow to adapt their old-fashioned strategies and tactics to the new weapons of 1914. New technology made war more horrible and more complex than ever before. The United States and other countries felt the effects of the war for years afterwards.
The popular image of World War I is soldiers in muddy trenches and dugouts, living miserably until the next attack. This is basically correct. Technological developments in engineering, metallurgy, chemistry, and optics had produced weapons deadlier than anything known before.

The question has a definition word of "copperheads" which is something they want you to define. So if you rearrange the question, it can be a multiple choice question stating:

B) slavery
Abolition is to over throw something and start a new version of what has been overthrown
Slavery was the ownership of African Americans (seeing as this question was linked to the civil war)
Hope you can find the answer easier now (:
