Answer: The forced annexation of the islands as a U.S. territory after the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy

Explanation:

Before 1893, Hawaii was ruled by a monarch, the last of which was Queen  Liliuokalani. A strong leader, she was tired of the crippling influence of American businesses on the Hawaiian people and so wanted to establish a stronger monarchy to deal with the Americans.

American businessmen found out and using bribery and force, removed her from the throne in 1893. They then applied to the U.S. for annexation the next year. Under a new president in 1898, this was given support and passed through Congress such that Hawaii became a U.S. territory in 1900.

Which of following events was not part of the Compromise of 1850?
shusha [124]

The correct answer is A) Slavery would be abolished in Washington DC.

The Compromise of 1850 was a critical law, as it helped to prevent the Civil War from starting in the 1850's. Due to America's expansion into the west and the newly gained territory after the Mexican American War, Northern and Southern politicians were arguing constantly over whether or not slavery will exist in these new territories.

To make both sides satisfied, Henry Clay helped to develop the Compromise of 1850.This included California becoming a free state, New Mexico and Utah using popular sovereignty to determine whether or not slavery would exist, and the slave trade would be outlawed in Washington DC.  However, this law said nothing about the actual institution of slavery in DC.

Napoleon created all of the following, EXCEPT
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The answer is A. A new system for paving roads, which allowed his troops to move faster.  

Explanation:

In 1796 a new governing body, the Directory, made Napoleon the commander of the French army in Italy, which was then fighting the Austrians and their allies. The Italian campaign showed Napoleon’s military genius. He bewildered his enemies with his rapid movements, and he eventually carried the war into Austria itself and had advanced to within 80 miles of Vienna when the enemy surrendered. He concluded the Treaty of Campo Formio, which gave France more territory. After a failed invasion of Egypt, he returned to France, where the political situation had become unstable. The Directory had lost its popularity among the people, and Napoleon saw an opportunity for self-advancement. In November 1799, he joined in a coup that overthrew the Directory. In its place, a government called the Consulate was set up and had Napoleon as the first of the three consuls.  

Within three years, Napoleon was made first consul for life. He instituted reforms in post-revolutionary France, starting with a complete overhaul of military training. <u>He also centralized the government, reorganized the banking and educational systems, supported the arts, and improved relations between France and the pope.</u> His most significant achievement was the Napoleonic Code, which streamlined the French legal system. Continued political opposition from royalists and others soon convinced Napoleon that the best way to discourage conspiracies against him would be to transform the life consulate into a hereditary empire. On May 18, 1804, the French empire was proclaimed, and Napoleon was consecrated emperor of France by Pope Pius VII in the Notre Dame Cathedral on December 2.
