<span>Most people at that time thought the world was flat. When you
sailed out to sea and they could no longer see your ship they assumed
you fell off the edge of the world. Columbus figured out (not by
himself, other educated people also knew this) that the world was round.
He figured it was a lot smaller though. He thought he could sail out
into the ocean and come out in India, there by taking a short cut and
putting one over on Spain. What Columbus didn't realize was the world
was alot bigger than he thought and there was a whole Continent out
there nobody knew about. Sooooo when he landed in S. America he thought
he was in India.</span>
Unlike Britain<span>, </span>France<span>, and </span>Russia<span>, the </span>United States wanted<span> to keep </span>trade<span> in </span>china open<span>.
Did that help?

People of that time spoke "Aramic", they did not speak Hebrew due to their captivity by the Arabic Babylonians, and they adopted the language over time, but that was not the language or writing used for the 10 commandments. The commandments were written in Proto-Aramic.
The election of 1848 did nothing to quell the controversy over whether slavery would advance into the Mexican Cession. Some slaveholders, like President Taylor, considered the question a moot point because the lands acquired from Mexico were far too dry for growing cotton and therefore, they thought, no slaveholder would want to move there. Other southerners, however, argued that the question was not whether slaveholders would want to move to the lands of the Mexican Cession, but whether they could and still retain control of their slave property. Denying them the right to freely relocate with their lawful property was, they maintained, unfair and unconstitutional. Northerners argued, just as fervidly, that because Mexico had abolished slavery, no slaves currently lived in the Mexican Cession, and to introduce slavery there would extend it to a new territory, thus furthering the institution and giving the Slave Power more control over the United States. The strong current of antislavery sentiment—that is, the desire to protect white labor—only increased the opposition to the expansion of slavery into the West.
