The first colony in Latin America to gain freedom was Haiti. It had previously been a French colony called St. Domingue. In 1791

, while the ruling class of St. Domingue was busy worrying about the French Revolution, the slaves took advantage of the squabbling and revolted. Under the leadership of Toussaint Louverture, the slaves managed to overthrow the government. In 1804, Haiti was declared a free country. Other countries also took advantage of European distraction to break free. After the French Revolution, Emperor Napoleon was stomping all over Europe. He had invaded Spain and Portugal. In Mexico in 1810, Father Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla rallied Native Americans and mestizos, or people of mixed Native American and Spanish heritage, to fight for independence. They lost, and Hidalgo was executed, but the spirit of revolution began to spread. In 1821, Mexico gained independence from Spain when a Creole named Vicente Guerrero, who had been charged with killing revolutionaries, decided to unite with them instead.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Option D, marked the most important change in the U.S. Constitution since the Bill of Rights, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Adopted on 9th July 1868, Amendment Fourteenth to the U.S. Constitution was one of the Reconstruction Amendments. This amendment conferred citizenship and equal civil and constitutional rights to the African American community and slaves got a release from slavery following the Civil War in America. In this way, this amendment provided the community of African Americans with citizenship and equal protection of the laws.

Due to this, the Fourteenth Amendment marked the most vital change in the Constitution of the United States since the Bill of Rights.

How does algae bloom in Florida areas affect their government at the local, state and national levels.
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Local: Many local businesses that are on the water during an algae bloom get less traffic at their store and have to deal with the fact that they are losing customers during this time.

State: Many tourists avoid the coast that has the algae bloom because getting in the water poses as a harm to them. Sometimes, if it gets too intense, the state might have to release algae bloom warnings that requires everyone to stay out of the water.

National: Some seafood comes from Florida and algae blooms can kill wildlife off, making it contaminated and unsafe for human consumption. This can hurt seafood sales around the nation.
