The the beginning of the Civil War, President Lincoln ordered the U.S. Navy to place a blockade along almost 3,500 miles of Atlantic Coastline. This was so the Union could stop them from importing products in and from exporting their own good out of the country. Though many smaller Confederate shops were able to get out of the ports, they only had a little bit of goods, and the South needed much more to support their economy.

Most religious terms in English are from Anglo-Saxon origin.
True or False:
<u><em>False</em></u>
Most <u>religious terms</u> in English come from <u>Latin origin</u>. These terms were introduced during the <u>Roman Conquest</u> (43-84 AD) through the Romans' main language: Latin. Most of the Celtic and Anglo-Saxon religions that were practiced were slowly suppressed by <u>Christianity</u>. This process was officially achieved in the <u>year 597 </u>in which Augustine of Canterbury was sent by Gregory the Great with the intention of fully evangelizing England's population.
The correct answer is "the desire of wise men".
In her play "Frankenstein" (1823), Mary Shelley uses different syntactic strategies in order to put emphasis on certain information. For example, she could have written something like this: "within my grasp is the study and desire of the wisest men...".
Instead, she chose to present the information in a rhetorical way. She introduced the "wh" word "what" opening the window for the reader to question himself what is the meaning of "what"?
What is THAT THING that had been the study and desire of wisest men since the creation of the world? What did they want to know?
