Answer:   <em>B. The ironclad </em>

Explanation:  

The main battle between ironclads occurred on 9 March 1862, as the defensively covered Monitor was conveyed to shield the Union's wooden armada from the ironclad smash Virginia and Confederate warships. With the clash of Hampton Roads, maritime fighting changed forever. Ironclads were warships intended to be impenetrable to foe shot and shell by the excellence of their iron-shielded wooden structures.

Different names for these boats incorporate rams, defensive layer clads, iron gophers, iron elephants, iron pine boxes, turtle-backs, and mud-smashers. So incredible were the ironclads that they upset an ancient axiom of naval warfare that forts were stronger than ships.

Northerners_____ counting slaves as part of the population if they had no rights, while southerners _____ counting slaves. Accor
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Northerners opposed counting slaves as part of the population if they had no rights, while southerners supported counting slaves. According to the compromise, five slaves would count as three free persons when calculating how many representatives each state received in the House of Representatives.

Explanation:

The Three-Fifths Compromise was a compromise established during the 1787 Philadelphia Convention between the colonies of the North and the South. This compromise considered, in the rules for counting people represented in the House of Representatives, that a slave was counted up to three fifths of a free man.  

The question was important, as the population count would then be used to determine the number of seats each state would have in the US House of Representatives. The Compromise gave a disproportionate representation of the slave states in the House of Representatives compared to the voters in the free states until the Civil War.

Which of the following statements best expresses a reason for European imperialism in the 1800s?
sasho [114]

Answer:

B.  

European nations wanted to control lands that had raw materials for industry and manufacturing.

Explanation:

In the wake of the industrial revolution, the international order changed. Nations needed raw materials and markets, and they needed to secure them before other nations did. That also shaped the form of imperialism used in the 1800s. Before, the European countries tried to settle in the conquered territories and work the land. But in 1800, nations established outposts and an extractive economy that sought to obtain the raw materials as quickly and as efficiently as possible.  

Nations also needed to control markets for their goods, which led to wars against large Empires like China, which was a huge potential market. The British set an example for other Nations by imposing trade treaties with the use of warships.
