Answer:

When the people of a territory or a region thereof have grown to a sufficient population and make their desire for statehood known to the federal government, in most cases Congress passed an enabling act authorizing the people of that territory or region to frame a proposed state constitution as a step toward admission to the Union.

Answer:

When the people of a territory or a region thereof have grown to a sufficient population and make their desire for statehood known to the federal government, in most cases Congress passed an enabling act authorizing the people of that territory or region to frame a proposed state constitution as a step toward admission.The following is a rough guide to the process: Generally, the U.S. Congress requires a certain minimum population. For example, when Michigan was applying for statehood in the 1830s, Congress required a minimum of 60,000 people to inhabit the territory applying for statehood. Congress can make a territory into a State at any time, without getting permission from anyone. Congress usually waits for a territory to request statehood. ... Typically, once Congress gets the request for statehood, they make some conditions for the new state.

Answer:  Choice C.

They worried that Lincoln would try to end slavery in the United States.

==========================================================

Explanation:

The issue of slavery was debated and fought over for many years before the election of 1860. It was only until Lincoln became president that sparked the southern states to secede, which led to the Civil War. Proof of this is found in the many Declaration of Secession documents produced by each state that left the union. This is basically a document explaining why they left the United States to form the Confederate States of America (CSA) aka the Confederacy.

In modern times, some people mistakenly claim that the Civil War wasn't over slavery but rather states' rights. This is simply false. The documents I mentioned prove that slavery was the core issue. More proof is the various states having issues with the fugitive slave act, in that the northern states didn't really adhere to the law to the level of the southern states' liking. I guess you could argue that states' rights were involved, but specifically the south fought to have the right to own slaves. In short, it's all about getting the correct context. Expanding that context, simply look at the decades preceding the war and notice all of the tension involving whether a new state was a free state vs a slave state.
