Answer:

The correct answer is "He wanted to unify the nation and create lasting peace".

Explanation:

When Abraham Lincoln took the presidency in 1861, the nation was in a political crisis. Lincoln was a liberal, and even though he never said that he wanted to end slavery in the South, he said he don't wanted to see it spread to other parts of the U.S. This was considered as a generous approach to the southerns from Lincoln, given that southerns were opposed that he won the presidency because he was a Republican. Lincoln took a peaceful position to the southerns since he wanted to unify the nation and create lasting peace instead of looking for avenge.

The conditions in the South during Reconstruction

Even though Southern states rejoined the Union and agreed to the 13th amendment (which outlawed the institution of slavery), the South looked very similar to what it did before the Civil War started. Even though African Americans were technically free, many of them still worked on plantations. There work on plantations was under the system known as sharecropping. Sharecropping is a system in which a person leases land from a farm owners. In return, the worker promises to give land owners a share of their crop. This system resulted in strict labor contracts. Ultimately, this system would tie African Americans to plantations as plantation owners used loopholes within the contract to keep their tenants from finding other opportunities.

Along with this, African Americans were still treated horribly in the South. The development of the Ku Klux Klan, a white supremacist organization, resulted in the beating and killing of thousands of African American citizens. This group was created in order to strike fear in the hearts of African American citizens and to prevent them from using their newly gained rights (like the right for men to vote).

Lastly, the South would continue to treat African Americans as inferior by the implementation of black codes and Jim Crow laws. These laws allowed for the development of segregated public and private facilities.

What population changes raised issues for americans as they entered into the 21st century
andreyandreev [35.5K]

It was the population policy of the 21st century.

When 20th century ends, the desirable social goal was sustained and broadly accepted from local and regional levels to the world. To most citizens of America, the population is not really an issue, but it has been for the past decades because low population may mean demographic issues.

Analyze the extent to which European exploration of the new world was driven by economic factors.
Iteru [2.4K]

The characterization of mercantilism as a "set of practices" demonstrates the absence of a preconceived plan for the economic policy of European countries that, between the 16th and 18th centuries, disputed slices of American territory to keep them in the condition of colonies. During this period, in Europe, the wealth available in the world was thought of as something that could not be expanded, and therefore the absolutist states strove to secure for themselves as much of this supposedly limited wealth as possible. Gold and silver, circulating in the form of coins or locked in the coffers of kings were understood as their translation, hence the true search fever of the so-called metals
