Imagine you are a writer for an Abolitionist newspaper.
vazorg [7]

As a writer for an abolitionist newspaper, you would write a heated opinion article to criticize the newly enacted Fugitive Slave law.

<h3>What did Abolitionists think of the Fugitive Slave Law?</h3>

I can't write the opinion article for you but I can give you pointers.

Abolitionists in the North were appalled and very angry when they heard that the Fugitive Slave Law had been passed because they believed that it would make it much harder to get people out of slavery.

They also believed that it infringed upon the rights of a State to be a free state that does not permit slavery and lastly, it meant that African Americans who were free in the North could now be targeted by slave hunters which was grossly unfair.

Write these reasons for being against the Fugitive Slave Law in the opinion article and then conclude by calling on the Northern states to resist this law.

What type of government system allows one person to wield ultimate authority over a country and its people?
OverLord2011 [107]

The type of system of government allows a person to exercise maximum authority over a country and its people is the dictatorial system

the dictatorial system can be defined as an authoritarian political regime maintained by violence of an exceptional and illegitimate nature. It can be led by a person or a group that imposes its project of government on society with the help of force.

These governance systems tend to be fairly centralized. Power is extremely concentrated in the hands of the person or group that governs the state, with little or no openness to political debate. The spaces of communication and deliberation are usually tightly regulated or suppressed. This includes the press, the legislature and judiciary, and political parties, which are often forbidden to exist.

How did the ideas of the Scientific Revolution transform Europe?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:  The ideas of the scientific revolution transformed the way people began to think about the world.

Explanation:

During the scientific revolution, Europeans began to question and branch off from traditional Catholic beliefs, and began to learn how to understand the universe we live in. New medical advancements were made such as the turniquet and the stethoscope, and astrologists dedicated study to the planets, stars, and outer space. European society started to grasp a better understanding of how the world around us, such as plants, animals, ilness, and elements, work and coincide with one another.
