Shalnov [3]3 years ago

Answer: Some historians believe that the Mississippi River's control was a key factor that decided the victor in the war.

Explanation:

Statistics say that as many as 26 battles were fought around that strategic place during the civil war and countless smaller conflicts. Control of the Mississippi River was one of the key factors in the Civil War. After the Union gained control of the Mississippi River, it gained a huge strategic advantage. In the first place, it divided the Confederation into two parts, and since the communication was flowing along that river, communication with the Confederation was disabled. With this move, the Union also economically weakened the Confederation since there was a huge flow of goods along the river to be disabled. Thus the Confederation was economically in disarray.

postnew [5]

The tyranny of the Etruscan kings is what led to the founding of the republic. 2. Republic: The period where Rome's leaders were elected by the citizens of the republic on a yearly basis. This period is where Rome came to dominate the mediterranean through conquest and dominance. 3. Principate: period where Rome was ruled over by single emperors, who often tried to keep the illusion of the republic alive. 4. Tetrarchy: The tetrarchy was the period near the end of Rome's dominance where there were four different leaders of Rome, usually posted in different regions near Rome's frontier in order to defend the empire. The tetrarchy collapsed and eventually lead to the empire splitting into East and West.</span>
