The person on the five dollar bill is Abraham Lincoln, best known as the 16th President of the United States. Lincoln was at the center of the Civil War from 1861 to 1865, in which 11 states separated from the United States to form the Confederate States of America, also known as the Confederacy. While it seemed like the Union would lose the war at first, Lincoln put his faith in generals that helped the Union win the war. Lincoln delivered his Gettysburg Address after the Battle of Gettysburg was won by the Union. Additionally, per the thirteenth amendment that Lincoln proposed, slavery was abolished in the Union. Lincoln therefore is significant in American history for freeing slaves and helping the union win the Civil War.
The abolitionists had both theoretical and practical influence on the antislavery attitudes in the North. Their practical influence was seen in organized actions for freeing slaves and helping them escape to Canada. Quakers were often involved in these actions and were willing to risk their lives. The theoretical influence of abolitionists was immense. For example, <span>Harriet Beecher Stowe, who wrote the famous novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin", profoundly influenced the popular thinking about slavery, not only in America, but throughout the world.</span>
Answer: Nationalism has contributed to the militarization of states.
Explanation:
The beginning of the twentieth century brought a lot of intolerance among European countries. France and Britain were the leading colonial powers, and Germany and Austro-Hungary wanted a part for themselves. In such circumstances, extreme nationalism emerges. Countries are pursuing a rigid, militaristic policy so that the production of weapons and ammunition is growing in almost all European countries. This led to an increase in self-confidence, which is why they went to war so easily. Nationalism thus accelerated and accelerated the production of weapons.
