Answer:

The judgment of the Supreme Court allowing the slave owners to take slaves to the west as the final decision in the Dred Scott case made it a significant one in American history.

Explanation:

In 1857, the Supreme Court passed a judgment enabling the contemporary slave owner to take their slaves with them to the new lands offered to them in the west.

Initially, it was termed illegitimate to take slaves to the west, but with the decision of the Supreme Court, taking slaves and practicing slavery in the west became legal.

Why is American Government and Politics important?

Marianna [84]

Answer:

My dad's friend once told me that there's only three major reasons as to why the government/politics are important:

1. Governmental and political decisions impact almost every aspect of our everyday lives.

2. Having knowledge of politics helps make you an informed voter.

And 3. Politics are entertaining.

Okay, to be honest, politics don't really entertain me, but you know what, that's just my opinion, I know that plenty of people find politics entertaining, I'm just not one of them.

But yeah, anyway.

There are your top three :)

have a nice day, hope i helped, and if so, brainliest is always appreciated
