Answer: True
Explanation: The emancipation proclamation legally freed the slaves in the United States. By winning the war the North would ensure the law of the United States was in place over the Southern States instead of the law of the Confederacy.
At the beginning of the Civil War (and while running for President) Abraham Lincoln had said that he would not week to end slavery. The emancipation proclamation marked a definate (and permanent) change in that policy.

1. The Battle of Bunker Hill was actually not fought on Bunker Hill.
―― <span>Tasked on the night of June 16, 1775, with fortifying 110-foot-tall Bunker Hill on the Charlestown peninsula, which jutted into Boston Harbor, Colonel William Prescott instead directed the 1,000 patriots joining him to build an earthen fort atop neighboring Breed’s Hill, a shorter peak with a closer perch to the British under siege in Boston.
2. The Patriots sought to delay a British attack but instead provoked one.
―― </span><span>Seeking to break the siege of Boston, the British planned to launch a massive attack on June 18, 1775, to seize the two promontories overlooking the city—first Dorchester Heights to the south and then Bunker Hill to the north. When patriot leaders received intelligence that an assault was imminent, they directed Prescott to fortify Bunker Hill as a deterrent. Prescott’s provocative action to instead occupy Breed’s Hill, within cannon shot of the Redcoats, forced the British to change plans, respond to the overt challenge and launch an amphibious assault on Charlestown.

3. The British won the battle.
―― <span>Often obscured by the moral victory earned by the Patriots is that they ultimately lost the military battle. After the colonial militiamen repelled the first two British assaults, they ran out of ammunition during the third attack and were forced to abandon their redoubt. The fierce defense, however, inflicted heavy casualties on the Redcoats, demonstrated the ability of the Patriots to fight toe-to-toe with the British and boosted the colonists’ confidence.
</span>
4. <span>It was one of the bloodiest battles of the American Revolution.
</span>―― <span>Victory at Bunker Hill came at a terrible price for the British, with nearly half of the 2,200 Redcoats who entered the battle killed or wounded in just two hours of fighting. The Patriots sustained over 400 casualties. “The loss we have sustained is greater than we can bear,” wrote British General Thomas Gage. “I wish [we] could sell them another hill at the same price,” quipped patriot leader Nathanael Greene after the battle.

Baron de Montesquieu is very popular for his book. The Spirit of the Laws is about the ideal organization of government.
- In Baron's book titled the Spirit of the Laws he talked in favor of a constitutional system of government and the separation of powers.
He wanted an end to slavery and the upholding of civil liberties and the law. He was of the opinion that uniting these powers, as in the monarchy of Louis XIV, would cause despotism.
The Spirit of the Laws gave an overview of human laws and social institutions.

I disagree. The 70s may have been a tough time for some but it was mostly a time of renewal and new things coming. The first Earth Day was celebrated in 1970, so it was a start of awareness of what was happening to our planet. Also, the 70s are mainly known as the time of the hippie movement. people were upset about things happening but they also tried to change things. People were mostly happy and enjoying life. Like someone about that time (I can't remember who) "I was alive and living".
Hope that helps!
