Answer:

a young officer on Washington's staff who captured a British fort during the Battle of Yorktown

Explanation:

Alexander Hamilton was the commander of an infantry during the Siege of Yorktown and was successful in military missions.

One of his most well known military victories was the Yorktown battle where he defeated the enemy and unhooked their bayonets and because of this victory, American independence would hold two years later.

Therefore the best way to describe Alexander Hamilton is to say that a young officer on Washington's staff who captured a British fort during the Battle of Yorktown.

That's a lot of questions!  You need not give me the "brainliest," as I may only respond to a couple of those points for the sake of time here.

#2 in your list:  In Lincoln's first inaugural address, he said:  "Plainly, the central idea of secession is the essence of anarchy."  In other words, if states could choose to secede from the union, then there was really no union and no government.  (Anarchy is the absence of government.)  Only if we abide by the constitutional checks we place on ourselves in a democratic republic are we exercising genuine government.  Otherwise, we fall into chaos or some sort of dictatorial state.  Lincoln felt that the whole concept of self-government was at stake, threatened by the South's desire to secede. Lincoln had to treat the secession of several states as an act of rebellion.

#5 in your list (closely related to #2):  The states that had seceded already had caused the civil war, in Lincoln's estimation.  The northern states had to respond to hold the union together.  The southern states claimed to be afraid for their property, peace and safety with an administration like Lincoln's in charge.  But Lincoln saw those fears as unfounded, that all states would continue to enjoy their constitutional privileges. But seceding from the union cut them off from all stability and security.

How did the balance of power in Europe shift as a result of World War One
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The balance shifted in many ways both economic and political.

Before the war, Germany, Russia, and Austria had their empires. After the war Austria-Hungary was ended, Germany lost territory and was no longer a world power and was ruined, and Russia stopped being an Empire and became USSR. There was a new nation called Yugoslavia and many people in Europe started to get influenced by communism. France emerged as a proud victor from the war and along with Britain was the dominant force in Europe.
