Passed on September 18, 1850 by Congress, The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 was part of the Compromise of 1850. The act required that slaves be returned to their owners, even if they were in a free state. The act also made the federal government responsible for finding, returning, and trying escaped slaves.

Allowed slave owners to retreive slaves even if they were in "free states" and anyone who harbored runaway slaves would be fined

I don't think this was fair because if the slave made it to a free state they should be free but on the other hand, they were considered property and it would be the owners retrieving "property" kinda like if a dog ran away and was retrieved

In the 1960s what realization begin to shape the debate over foreign-policy a the fact that communism spreading and threatening
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. The fact that communism was spreading and threatening government stability began to shape the debate over foreign policy in the 1960s. This situation led to the development of the domino theory and the adoption of the Johnson Doctrine as the main foreign policy rule in the United States.

The doctrine meant that the United States of America appropriated the right to carry out armed intervention in the internal affairs of the states of the Western Hemisphere (and subsequently of any countries in the Asia-Pacific region) to protect the interests of its citizens. The doctrine was aimed at preventing the coming to power of communist or socialist parties (even if their coming was done in a democratic way and with the support of the majority of the population of a sovereign country).

How did merchants rewaken interest in classical culture?
Neko [114]
When merchants traveled between towns selling goods, they would have items from different places and cultures. The buyers of these merchants would be fascinated with the new items they had never seen before of different cultures, and so they would buy those items and spread them around until everybody knew about and became interested in other cultures. The cycle continued, causing more and more people to appreciate other cultures.
