5. The United States wanted to acquire the Mexican Cession to B. complete the transcontinental railroad across the Southern United States.

6. I believe it is A. Factors of the Creation of the Monroe Doctrine., especially in the long run.
The Monroe Doctrine was created during the presidency of James Monroe, who was office from 1817 - 1825. You must remember that the Louisiana Territory was under French rule, Florida, and south-western parts of the United States was under Spanish rule, and other European countries claiming smaller territories within the current US. However, with the purchase of the Louisiana Purchase as well as the Gadsden Purchase and the Acquisition from both the Texas Independence (in which Texas joins the Union), and the Mexican-American War, the US gained large amounts of territory at once, as well as large amounts of population. The Monroe Doctrine was an ultimatum to European countries, in which the US was the regional power, and that it would use it's resources to "protect" it's neighbors and it's own interests. In this case, the European countries were not to interfere with territories in the US, creating the U.S. sphere of influence. However, existing colonial powers were not removed by the U.S.

Answer:
The Civil Rights Movement was a movement that worked to improve living conditions and rights for the black population of the United States. The movement had its heyday in the United States between 1954 and 1968, where significant progress was made in obtaining better civil rights for African Americans, on an equal footing with whites.
Two of the movement's major victories came in the form of legislation. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 banned discrimination based on race, religion, gender or national origin in the labor market and prohibited unequal demands of black and white citizens in registering citizens as voters. The law also prohibited racial segregation in schools, workplaces and public housing. The following year came the Voting Rights Act, which reestablished and protected minority suffrage by allowing federal oversight of voter registration and voting in areas where minorities had historically been under-represented in elections.
One of the movement's leading figures was the priest Martin Luther King, who came into the media spotlight in connection with the 1955-1956 bus boycott in Montgomery. This campaign was the first time the movement achieved a major victory against the Jim Crow system in the Southern States.
