Answer:  His main reasoning for going through with the civil war was to preserve the Union, and to unify the United States as a whole also called the Reconstruction Era.

Explanation:

A quote from he when he was asked about his reasons was this, "If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all slaves I would do it." This was the first phase of the war, then it eventually spread to the South where slaves were just hearing of the news. The men of color were practically forcing the army to allow them to enlist as it became a fight for freedom. During it's final part Lincoln's goal had become to try and create a nation not divided by differing ideals, and instead a place where a person is a person.

This is mainly from information that I've gathered, so I'm sorry if I got anything wrong.

Lincoln ran on a political platform opposed to the expansion of slavery in the territories. His election served as the immediate impetus for the outbreak of the Civil War.

What was the impact of the 13th, 14th, 15th, 19th, 24th, and 26th Amendments to the United States Constitution?
kolezko [41]

The 13th admendent took away slavery in 1865. But in order to protect the former slaves' rights they had to create to more admendments which is where the 14th admendment comes in.

for the 14th admendments, the imapct for that one was that the U.S. Constitution now protected all U.S. citizens (including former slaves) from state-level policies that discriminated against them because of their race.

for the 15th admendment, this one granted african americans the right to vote by stating this "right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude."

for the 19th admendment gave women the right to vote so this one mostly impacted on women, changing a lot of things since only men were allowed to do so.

for the 24th admendment,  it prohibited any poll tax in elections for federal officials.

for the last one, the 26th admndment. This is where the phrase "old enough to fight, old enough to vote" comes in. during World War II, President Franklin D. Roosevelt lowered the age for the military draft to 18, at a time when the minimum voting age was 21.

Hope this helped!!!!

marishachu [46]

The chronological order of events lead to Iran Hostage Crisis are-

  1. US-backed overthrow of Prime Minister Mossadegh.
  2. Visits between President Carter and the Shah of Iran.
  3. Iranian revolution, led by Ayatollah Khomeini.
  4. Admittance of the Shah of Iran to the United States for medical treatment.
<h3>What was Iran Hostage Crisis?</h3>

In the international crisis known as the Iran Captive Crisis (1979–1981), Iranian terrorists abducted 66 Americans from the American embassy in Tehran and held 52 of those hostage for much more than a year.

Some key features regarding the Iran Hostage Crisis are-

  • The crisis, which occurred in the tumultuous years after the Pahlavi monarchy's collapse by Iran's Islamic Revolution (1978–79), had a significant impact on internal politics in the US and ruined relations between that country and Iran for decades.
  • The relationship between Iran and the United States was significantly impacted after the Iranian revolution.
  • As Iran hostage crisis occurred just after the Vietnam War, it dealt a serious damage to American morale and prestige.
  • In addition to impeding U.S.-Iranian ties, it was widely thought to have played a role in Carter's loss to Reagan with in 1980 presidential election.
  • In addition, rumors surfaced also that Reagan campaign interfered with Carter's efforts to reach an early agreement, derailing a potential electoral triumph for the Carter campaign, in order to assure a Reagan victory, in the years that followed the crisis.
  • That argument has, however, mostly been refuted.
