The United States used to allow raced based slavery in parts of the country. What consequences of this fact

History

likoan [24]2 years ago

Answer:

The United States used to allow raced based slavery in parts of the country. Today, this situation and its consequences can be seen in the demographic details that make up our nation: slavery was allowed until 1865 in the southern region of the country, predominantly in states such as Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana and the Carolinas. Thus, these areas had a huge African American population, used at that time as slave labor by white landowners. Today, that large percentage of black settlers in these states remains, since the descendants of those slaves have maintained their majority ethnic status in those states. Thus, states like Mississippi have 40% of their population of African American origin, while northern states, such as Vermont, reduce this percentage to 2%.

Does any part of the government have the legal authority to purchase new lands? Explain.
poizon [28]

Answer: The federal government owns roughly 640 million acres, about 28% of the 2.27 billion acres of land in the United States. Four major federal land management agencies administer 606.5 million acres of this land (as of September 30, 2018). They are the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and National Park Service (NPS) in the Department of the Interior (DOI) and the Forest Service (FS) in the Department of Agriculture. A fifth agency, the Department of Defense (excluding the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers), administers 8.8 million acres in the United States (as of September 30, 2017), consisting of military bases, training ranges, and more. Together, the five agencies manage about 615.3 million acres, or 27% of the U.S. land base. Many other agencies administer the remaining federal acreage.

Explanation: Pursuant to the Property Clause of the United States Constitution (Article 4, section 3, clause 2), the Congress has the power to retain, buy, sell, and regulate federal lands, such as by limiting cattle grazing on them.

Mark each statement that correctly describes the political and religious conflicts between the Ottoman and Safavid empires.
Naddika [18.5K]
<span><span>The Safavid and Ottoman dynasties were both of Turkish ethnicity. The Safavid empire extended from the Caucasia ( Armenia, Azeribijan, etc.) to India, Iraq, the Persian Gulf, and parts of central Asia and the Caspian Sea.The Ottoman empire, on the other hand, ruled the the rest of the Islamic empire (Middle East, Balkans, and North Africa). 

The Ottoman empire was older and stronger than the young Safavid empire, but the Ottomans were alarmed as the Safavid strength and influence grew and felt their interest was threatened. Moreover, the Safavid followed Shia Islam, while the Ottoman people were followers of Sunni/Sufi Islam. 

But the main reasons for the conflict are rather political than for sectarian religious factors as many try to force this idea of Sunni/Shia conflict. 

As the Safavid empire grew, it pushed its territories as far as Iraq and eastern Turkey, carving for itself a considerable chunk of Ottoman territory. This was the point when the Ottomans felt in danger and waged war on their cousins the Safavid.</span><span>
