Answer:

Explanation:

1. How did economic interests, cultural factors, and political ambitions contribute to an unprecedented territorial expansion from 1844–1860? With territorial expansion came economic development that fed growing regional tensions between the North and South. In the northern states, economic development ushered in the early stages of industrialization, a transportation revolution, and the creation of a market system with cities that flourished on a rising tide of immigration. The South followed a dramatically different course, staking its expansion on the cotton economy and the growth of slavery. While white Southerners fiercely defended this exploitive economic and social system, millions of African American slaves struggled to shape their own lives through family, religion, and resistance to slavery.

2. How did economic differences and political conflicts from 1848–1860 bring the nation into the Civil War? The Southern states wanted for slavery to always be legal and not be contained to only the South, meaning that they wanted it to expand to western territory. As Abraham Lincoln came into office opposing slavery, the Southern states took it as the last straw, which led the southern states to secede. Since the southern economy depended on slavery, they were not willing to give it up. In contrast, the northern economy did not need slaves and depended on industry, contributing to rising tensions between the differing opinions on slavery between the North and the South, eventually resulting in the Civil War.  

3. How did the leadership of Abraham Lincoln contribute to the Union victory in the Civil War? Abraham knew that Robert E. Lee was a skilled general, and he was frustrated that the first general he put in charge was slow to make decisions, especially when trying to follow the Anaconda Plan. He demoted him and put Ulysses S. Grant in his place, hoping that Grant would be faster and quicker to react. Because of this decision, Grant brought the Union many victories and eventually turned the tide of the war in the Union’s favor.

4. In what two ways was 1863 a turning point year in the Civil War? On July 4, 1863, the most important Confederate stronghold on the Mississippi River, Vicksburg, surrendered to General Ulysses S. Grant (a general for the Union). The previous day, the union defeated Robert E. Lee in the Battle of Gettysburg, and these important events turned the tide of the Civil War to the Union’s favor.  

5. What transformations were brought to the lives of African Americans as a result of the Civil War and Reconstruction? In what ways did their situation not see a major improvement? African American lives improved in the sense that the 14th and 15th amendments allowed them to vote and own land just as white men were able to, but there was not much improvement in the sense that they were still seen as inferior to whites in the eyes of the Supreme Court. Although Congress tried to make them regular citizens, the Supreme Court ruled several cases that denied them the rights of normal American citizens during the Reconstruction.

6. Why did Reconstruction fail to produce the intended lasting effects that many sought? The intended lasting effects were that African Americans would be treated as equal citizens to white men, but this was not achieved. There were many terrorist/anti-black groups such as the Ku Klux Klan, as well as segregation and racist laws (most notably the Jim Crow Laws). These prevented African Americans from being treated the same as a white man and contributed to the prevalence of racism.

Answer:

1) The North's cities flourished on a rising tide of immigration, and its newly opened territories were cultivated by growing numbers of family farms.

2) manufacturing in the North and of the Civil War are downright intriguing and just as complex as the conflict itself.

3) historians have begun to give Lincoln more credit as a war leader, pointing out that he was responsible for establishing Union policy and developing and implementing a strategy to achieve the goals of his policy. He skillfully managed his cabinet, generals, and even Congress.

4) the Union transformed the purpose of the struggle from restoring the Union to ending slavery. While Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation actually succeeded in freeing few slaves, it made freedom for African Americans a cause of the Union.

5) the city's growth and the abolition of slavery. Abolitionists had been trying for decades to persuade Congress to abolish slavery in D.C., but Congress dominated by slaveholding interests would not move.

6) Lawmakers convinced poor whites that it was in their interests to keep African Americans disenfranchised and poor. Segregation was custom in the South after the Plessy v.

2. Describe the purpose of each alliance. (2 points) NATO: Warsaw Pact: SEATO: OAS: 3. Explain how the location and makeup of NA
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

2. Describe the purpose of each alliance.

NATO: The purpose is to form a military alliance between the United States, Western Europe, and other allies, with the goal of preventing aggression from adversary countries like the Soviet Union.

Warsaw Pact: forming a military alliance similar to NATO, but consisting of the Soviet Union and its satellites countries in Eastern Europe.

SEATO: forming a military alliance between Southeast Asian countries, and the United States, with the goal of preventing the advance of communism.

OAS: The initial goal of the Organization of the Americas was to prevent the advancement of communism in the Americas. Currently, its goal has shifted to cooperation between member states, and election monitoring.

3. Explain how the location and makeup of NATO and the Warsaw Pact affected Europe during the 1950s and 1960s. How did these alliances affect Cold War tensions?

During the 1950s, 1960s, and until 1991, Europe was divided between the two pacts: Western Europe was part of NATO, and allied with the United States, while Eastern Europe was part of the Warsaw Pact, and allied with the Soviet Union.

This division naturally created tensions, that often resulted in events that could have led to war. For example, the Warsaw Pact invaded Hungary in 1956, and Czechoslovakia in 1968, after these countries began to implement democratic reforms, and NATO kept nuclear warheads in Turkey, dangerously close to the Soviet Union.

4. Consider the history of colonialism in Southeast Asia. How does this history help explain why only two Southeast Asian countries were members of SEATO? Explain your answer.

Britain, France, Japan, the Netherlands, and Spain had colonies in Southeast Asia. The relations between the former colonies and the colonial powers continued to be tense decades after colonial power ended.

The only two Southeast Asian countries that are part of SEATO have opposite characteristics: while Thailand was never a colony of any European Power, the Phillipines was a colony of both Spain and the United States, and has remained closely allied with the latter.

5. Explain why some countries chose to be nonaligned. What did they fear, and what did they have to gain by remaining neutral?

Some countries choose to be nonaligned or neutral as part of a national policy that can be decades, or even centuries old, the most famous example of this being Switzerland, which remained neutral during the whole XX century.

Other countries choose to be nonaligned either because they are located far from any relevant sphere of influence, or because they want to maintain good economic relations with all superpowers.
