In some instances, Federal officials expedited the naming process by furnishing the names themselves, and invariably the name would be the same as that of the freedman’s most recent master. But these appear to have been exceptional cases; the ex-slaves themselves usually took the initiative—like the Virginia mother who changed the name of her son from Jeff Davis, which was how the master had known him, to Thomas Grant, which seemed to suggest the freedom she was now exercising. Whatever names the freed slaves adopted, whether that of a previous master, a national leader, an occupational skill, a place of residence, or a color, they were most often making that decision themselves. That was what mattered.

No one.  Impeachment does not mean kicked out of office.  It means that they were brought to trial.  If they were to be kicked out of office, though, the Speaker of the House would then become President.

What happened on september 1, 1939
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Germany 'officially' invaded Poland in order to reclaim Danzig.

Explanation:

Germany, prior to World War Two, attempted to gain land for Germany and reunite ethnic Germans with their country. Such land gains included the annexation of the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia, and the annexation of the city of Memel, among others. Germany sent Poland an ultimatum in the same fashion, asking them to surrender control of the city of Danzig, which had ethnic German roots. Poland did not comply, and Germany decided to invade. The invasion and conquest of Poland was most likely just for the sake of gaining land, and gaining a border with the USSR (which Germany later invaded).

In what way are the processes of creating a timeline and thinking chronologically similar?
Mazyrski [523]
Both the processes of creating a timeline and thinking chronologically are similar in that both require thinking about time as a series of events that take place one after the other--as opposed to focussing on similarities and connections between events that may be "out of order" on a given timeline.
