Answer: Slaves were considered property ---------------------------> Congress did not have the power to outlaw slavery in the territories

Explanation:

The Dred Scott decision which was one of the most criticized in Supreme Court history, ruled that African Americans were not American citizens but were to be classified as property.

As such, Congress had no power to outlaw slavery in the territories because the U.S. Constitution protected the rights of Americans to not be deprived of their property by the state unless there is due process.

This decision heavily influenced the intensity of rivalry between the North and the South on the topic of slavery and so could be said to have been a main cause of the Civil War.

What is the dilemma to Spain faces regarding the new colonies established by them?

vfiekz [6]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

One of the dilemmas Spain faced regarding the new colonies established by them was the powerful international presence of the Spanish crown in those new territories against the cost of maintaining that presence.

It is well known that the Spanish conquerors wanted to exploit the many raw materials and natural resources in their colonies to enrich the Spanish crown. However, there was an implicit cost in this feat. Indeed, a high cost it was.

Furthermore, the fear Spanish had of possible occupations by French or English settlers of territories such as Florida, made them accept the presence of Native American Indian tribes like the Seminoles. trying to protect its large peninsula.
