Ten-Percent Plan,which specified that a southern state could be readmitted into the Union once 10 percent of its voters (from the voter rolls for the election of 1860) swore an Oath Of Allegiance to the Union. Voters could then elect delegates to draft revised state constitutions and establish new state governments. All southerners except for high-ranking Confederate army officers and government officials would be granted a full pardon. Lincoln guaranteed southerners that he would protect their private property, though not their slaves. Most moderate Republicans in Congress supported the president’s proposal for Reconstruction because they wanted to bring a quick end to the war.

In many ways, the Ten-Percent Plan was more of a political maneuver than a plan for Reconstruction. Lincoln wanted to end the war quickly. He feared that a protracted war would lose public support and that the North and South would never be reunited if the fighting did not stop quickly. His fears were justified: by late 1863, a large number of Democrats were clamoring for a truce and peaceful resolution. Lincoln’s Ten-Percent Plan was thus lenient—an attempt to entice the South to surrender.

In what way did Greece's crushing defeat by Philip II of Macedonia lead to a flowering of Greek culture?
Likurg_2 [28]

The same way the Mongols conquering China did, the Macedonians assimilated much of their culture into that of Athenian , Philips son Alexander helped further Greek influence through his conquests, creating cities like Alexandria and turning much of the eastern Mediterranean into a bastion of the "western"  world at the time. Not to mention Alexander was educated by Greek Philosipher Aristotle.

Different customs led to many disagreements and skirmishes. The Powhatan tribe was very distrustful of the white settlers and for good reason. The European settlers were actually trying to push natives off their rain so that they could claim it for themselves.
