Who wanted to extend slavery into the United States's newly acquired western territory?

History
1 answer:
rjkz [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Politicians were forced to deal with the issue of slavery and its westward expansion as early as the Missouri Compromise of 1820. The States had previously maintained a shaky balance in the Senate with an equal number of representatives from both Slave and Free States. As Missouri prepared to enter the Union as a Slave State, this tentative balance threatened to come undone. Henry Clay of Kentucky temporarily solved the issue by crafting the Missouri Compromise, bringing Missouri into the Union as a Slave State and, as a balance, Maine entered as a Free State. The Compromise also made future bondage illegal in all areas of the Louisiana Purchase north of the 36°30′ parallel with the exception of Missouri; all future states below this line would become Slave States.  This Compromise solved the immediate problem of slavery in the Louisiana Purchase by sweeping the real issue of slavery under the rug in order to placate both northern and southern politicians. In the years to come, politicians of both northern and southern states would not be so quick so compromise.

What purpose does the vedas serve in Hinduism
zalisa [80]
Humanity is disturbing this natural condition on which his existence, along with the existence of all other forms of life, depends. This is like the action of a woodcutter cutting a tree at the trunk, on the branch on which he is sitting. According to Hindu religion, “dharanath dharma ucyate”—that which sustains all species of life and helps to maintain harmonious relationship among them is dharma. That which disturbs such ecology is adharma.

For centuries, the pope had been based in Rome. Then, in 1309, Pope Clement V moved the Roman Catholic Church to Avignon, France
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The move to Avignon gave more power to the French Kingdom, at the expense of the Italian city-states, and especially, of the Papal States.

Explanation:

Because the Papal states were the Italian territories that were under direct control of the Church, when the Pope moved to Avignon, he annexed the city to the Papal States, so technically it was part of them. However, in practice, the pope was mostly influenced by French nobles, and had little power over the Italian papal states.

This was an opportunity for the Italian nobles of the region, who seized more power and control over the area.

Summarize why the United States agreed to join the United Nations when we wouldn’t join the League of Nations after World War I?
pochemuha

President Woodrow Wilson came up with points during World War I called the Fourteen Points. These were his goals for during and after the war, included in these points was the League of Nations. When other countries did approve of the League of Nations, along with President Woodrow Wilson himself, the United States Congress did not want the United States to join.

Congress did not want the United States to join the League of Nations because they believed in isolationism. This means that they did not want to get involved in foreign affairs whatsoever and wanted to mind their business. They believed that the "domino effect" would happen, as it did with the start of World War I by numerous countries getting involved over another countries problems.

The United Nations was much more powerful than the League of Nations. The League of Nations proved to be very ineffective, they did not have their own troops, and they couldn't stop Germany from expanding. At the end of World War II, which the League of Nations failed to prevent, the United Nations was created. The United Nations proved to be powerful and much more effective than the League of Nations was. Numerous countries joined the United Nations, including the United States, as there were fewer isolationists and the United Nations actually held power.
