The infamous "grandfather clauses" of the late 19th and early 20th centuries stated that
Nadya [2.5K]

The correct answer is D.

In the Reconstruction Era, the 14th and 15th amendments to the US Constitution had been introduced in order to guarantee equal rights for all US citizens, preventing any form of discrimination in terms of race.

The states could not explicitly prevent any citizen from participating in the elections. Still, many Southern states, circumvented the newly established constitutional provisions by implementing new requirements such as literacy tests, payment of poll taxes, property restrictions, etc., that needed to be fulfilled in order to register to vote. These measures excluded mostly black citizens as many were poor and/or illiterate.

Moreover, the grandfather clauses were introduced. These were used so that those whose ancestors were able to vote before the Civil War, could continue doing it wihtout the need of proving that they met the extra requirements: the tests, the poll taxes, etc. These provisions enahnced even more the discrimination against black US citizens.

Which statements are examples of Charlemagne’s achievements?
Butoxors [25]

Answer: Was crowned pope on Christmas Day, A.D. 800 / united a vast realm under the Christian faith.

Explanation:

Some historians consider Charlemagne to be one of the most significant figures of medieval Europe. Due to his military and political influences, he became the most influential figure in Western Europe. In so doing, the term "Christian Empire" he uses has become synonymous with the entire Christian West, in opposition to the Byzantine Empire. By his coronation, Charlemagne became the patron saint of the whole Christian West and the papacy. Its impact is enormous in all fields of life. His inauguration was boycotted by Byzantium, leading to war. The war ended in Aachen in 812, and Byzantium thus had to acknowledge Charles's imperial rule.

Explain how the conclusion of the French and Indian War affected Britain, the colonists, and American Indians in the region.
DIA [1.3K]
At the end of the F & I War, Britain gained control of the Ohio River Valley. Colonists thought that this would allow them to more easily move west. However, the British government had decided to leave all lands West of the Appalachian Mts (according to the Proclamation of 1763) be given to the Indians. This would keep peace in the area and avoid another war between colonists and Indians. The colonists were very angry about this decision. They had fought and died for the land and now were being forced out.
