Answer:
Freedom and equality.
Explanation:
The Congress during the 1990's enacted "The Civil Rights Act" on July 2, 1964 which prohibited private bisinesses unequal application of discrimination and racial segregation in employment, public services, and public accomodations, on the bases of physical and mental disabilities, which clashes between the freedom and equality of the citizens.
The Act further prohibits unequal application of Voter registration requirements, and racial segregation in schools, employment, and public accomodations and also on bases of mental and physical disabilities.
This discriminatory act by private businesses construed upon the freedom and equality of the citizens to be given free and fair chances in business to gain employment, to benefit from public services, and public accommodations, and the Congress feels that its duty is to guarantee all citizens equal protection of the law and protect their voting rights irrespective of any disabilities they might have.

The correct answer is option C) Steam Engine
Steam Engines were developed in the 1st Industrial Revolution in England. They led to the development of trains which provided fast travel throughout the country.
Steam Engines require the burning of coal to make steam and push machinery. This meant that the Steam Engine and Coal were perfect complimentary products and the increase in demand for one, would automatically increase the demand for the other.
Railway lines completely transformed countries as more and more goods and people could be transported cheaply and quickly.
From England, steam engines and trains spread to Europe, the US and other parts of the world and for the next 150 years, trains became the preferred mode of transport.

Explanation:
Under the rule of Belgium, with King Leopold II as its head, the Congo Free State, roughly on the territory of modern day DR Congo, had suffered immensely. Initially, the colony was not barely sustainable, always being on the verge of bankruptcy, but that all changed with the sudden big demand fro rubber. The Congo Basin had loads of it, and the Belgians intended to use that to make profit. The native population was quickly mobilized and was forced to brutal labor force, being constantly tortured, mutilated, beaten up, given only so much food so that they can barely survive to work the next day. This, combined with other factors, led to lot of deaths, the numbers vary anywhere from one to fifteen million deaths. Understandably, the native people rebelled against this, and it turned out to be a long and bloody conflict, where the end result was just more deaths.
