how did the rights argument of the Civil War and the ways in which this war did expand states rights?​

History

Answer: The appeal to states' rights is of the most potent symbols of the American Civil War, but confusion abounds as to the historical and present meaning of this federalist principle.  

The concept of states' rights had been an old idea by 1860. The original thirteen colonies in America in the 1700s, separated from the mother country in Europe by a vast ocean, were use to making many of their own decisions and ignoring quite a few of the rules imposed on them from abroad. During the American Revolution, the founding fathers were forced to compromise with the states to ensure ratification of the Constitution and the establishment of a united country. In fact, the original Constitution banned slavery, but Virginia would not accept it; and Massachusetts would not ratify the document without a Bill of Rights.

Secession Speeches

South Carolinians crowd into the streets of Charleston in 1860 to hear speeches promoting secession.

The debate over which powers rightly belonged to the states and which to the Federal Government became heated again in the 1820s and 1830s fueled by the divisive issue of whether slavery would be allowed in the new territories forming as the nation expanded westward.

The Missouri Compromise in 1820 tried to solve the problem but succeeded only temporarily. (It established lands west of the Mississippi and below latitude 36º30' as slave and north of the line—except Missouri—as free.) Abolitionist groups sprang up in the North, making Southerners feel that their way of life was under attack. A violent slave revolt in 1831 in Virginia, Nat Turner’s Rebellion, forced the South to close ranks against criticism out of fear for their lives. They began to argue that slavery was not only necessary, but in fact, it was a positive good.

As the North and the South became more and more different, their goals and desires also separated. Arguments over national policy grew even fiercer. The North’s economic progress as the Southern economy began to stall fueled the fires of resentment. By the 1840s and 1850s, North and South had each evolved extreme positions that had as much to do with serving their own political interests as with the morality of slavery.

Marina CMI [18]
I think the answer is the second phrase <span>books became available to many people throughout Europe

The need of printing arose when people are becoming more intellectual during the medieval ages. Many writers around this time believed that it is very expensive to hire scribes. They believe that it takes time and effort to train them to write a perfect manuscript. Thus, Gutenberg decided to create a printing press. Because of this, books become available throughout Europe and all over the world.

In sub-Saharan Africa, female genital mutilation is
Colt1911 [192]
C - definitely not the case, it's very common in Mali
B - also not the case, it's not very common but it's not "unheard of"

As for A and D, it's problematic.
A - hm, this is also not really true, it would be better to call it that it's more common in the east and West and less common in the center
D- In Nigeria 25% of women undergo it, and it also recently banned it - it's not little and it's not "uncommon" but it's less than in other contries in teh region.

so both A and D are partially true, partially false, but I think that A is better than D because  the some of the countries where FMG is most present, Mali and Egypt, are in the north and the southern counties have it less.
