nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Racism, slavery and segregation.

Explanation:

African Americans were enslaved and were seen as less because of the color of their skin which is horrible. They were also segregated, which means that they were seperated from white people because white people thought they were better only because of their skin color (which is wrong).

What is the name of the 1787 ordinance that set aside land for public schools and allowed religious freedom?

adell [148]

<h2>Answer: Northwest ordinance </h2>

The Northwest Ordinance was a law unanimously enacted by the Congress of the United States Confederation in 1787. This law served to establish the initial scheme under which the United States would organize its territories.

However, in principle this ordinance was enacted to officially create the Northwest Territory as the <u>first organized territory of the United States </u> by establishing new laws, among which stand out the prohibition of slavery (Article IV) and respect for the religious beliefs of the territories that made up this region, as mentioned in Article III of said ordinance.

It should be noted that years later this law became part of the expansion policy of the United States to annex territories that were geographically far from its main territory. This can be seen specifically in the year 1898, when the United States triumphed over Spain in the Hispano-American War and as part of the Treaty of Paris, Spain ceded control of the Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico to the United States.

Answer:

Why did the U.S. seek and acquire new territories and expand its area, influences, and power during this time?

Imperialism started with the Europeans. They expanded their powers overseas. The US took interest and were trying to expand westward.

In the 1800's Americans were looking overseas for new markets. They expanded across the pacific ocean towards east Asia.

Yes we are, because we still want to spread out. Imperialism goes back as far as the manifest destiny, 19th century.

What are the multiple constitutional documents that came from the multiple revolutions

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

It's almost impossible to imagine the United States (U.S.) Constitution without having a Bill of Rights, but when it was first being drafted, a majority of the Founding Fathers didn't think it was necessary.

However, there were a few men who believed it was so significant that they refused to sign the Constitution because it didn't have one. Three famous refusers were George Mason of Virginia, Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts, and Edmund Randolph of Virginia.

As it turned out, these three were not the only ones who thought this was an issue. When State ratification messages started arriving with their own commentary and suggestions for individual rights, Congress began to consider the idea of a "Bill of Rights."
