Answer:

The Thirteenth Amendment (Amendment XIII) to the United States Constitution abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. The amendment was passed by Congress on January 31, 1865, and ratified by the required 27 of the then 36 states on December 6, 1865, and proclaimed on December 18. It was the first of the three Reconstruction Amendments adopted following the American Civil War.

President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, effective on January 1, 1863, declared that the enslaved in Confederate-controlled areas were free. When they escaped to Union lines or federal forces—including now-former slaves—advanced south, emancipation occurred without any compensation to the former owners. Texas was the last Confederate territory reached by the Union army. On June 19, 1865—Juneteenth—U.S. Army general Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to proclaim the war had ended and so had slavery (in the Confederate states). In the slave-owning areas controlled by Union forces on January 1, 1863, state action was used to abolish slavery. The exceptions were Kentucky and Delaware, where slavery was finally ended by the Thirteenth Amendment in December 1865.

Which item is included in the first 10 amendments to the Constitution?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer: search only with probable cause

Explanation:

The first 10 Amendments are meant to protect the rights of American citizens with the logic being that if these rights are included in the Constitution, it would be harder for the government to deny the citizens of it.

The 4th Amendment includes one of those rights which is the right of citizens to not be searched by agents of the government without probable cause and if this is done, whatever is found cannot be used as evidence against the citizen in question.
