Answer:

The answer is that the Freedmen's Bureau had the most success in the area of education.

Explanation:

The Freedmen’s Bureau, formally known as the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, was established in 1865 by Congress to help millions of former black slaves and poor whites in the South in the aftermath of the Civil War. The Freedmen’s Bureau provided food, housing and medical aid, established schools and offered legal assistance. It also attempted to settle former slaves on land confiscated or abandoned during the war.

During its years of operation, the Freedmen’s Bureau fed millions of people, built hospitals and provided medical aid, negotiated labor contracts for ex-slaves and settled labor disputes. It also helped former slaves legalize marriages and locate lost relatives, and assisted black veterans.

The bureau also was instrumental in building thousands of schools for blacks, and helped to found such colleges as Howard University in Washington, D.C., Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee, and Hampton University in Hampton, Virginia.

a. Briefly explain ONE common trait in the policies of TWO of these European nations toward Native Americans: - England - France
Sphinxa [80]
The common trait was the intention to Christianize the Indians - that is to convert them to the Christian religion. The Spaniards were more brutal in this, often Christianizing by force, but the English also made strong attempts to convert the Indians.

Another common trait was the lack of interest in the local languages with the exception of priests or monks , who did it to be able to preach about Christianity to the natives.
