Answer: James Broun-Ramsay or Lord Dalhousie

Explanation:

Lord Dalhousie was a Governor General of India when it was under the rule of the British and widely pursued the "Doctrine of Lapse'". By this doctrine, the British were to be consulted when a monarch of a dependent state wanted to pass on leadership to an heir.

The British were to decide if the heir was competent enough to take the throne and if the British ruled that they weren't, the state would see its leadership lapsed and the British would take over to administer it.

Jobisdone [24]

Answer: B.  the spread of slavery into the West.

Explanation:

It was an established fact in the years leading up to the Civil War that the South was pro-slavery and the North was Anti-slavery and so both sides had arguments about the spread of slavery into the western territories as those territories gained statehood.

The South wanted slavery to spread into the territories so that they would have more states which would give slavery more representation in Congress and therefore keep the practice going. The North wanted the territories to be free for the same reason.
