Answer:

Gateway Arch

The Gateway Arch is a 630-foot (192 m) monument in St. Louis, Missouri, United States. Clad in stainless steel and built in the form of a weighted catenary arch,[5] it is the world's tallest arch,[4] the tallest man-made monument in the Western Hemisphere,[6] and Missouri's tallest accessible building. Built as a monument to the westward expansion of the United States,[5] and officially dedicated to "the American people," the Arch, commonly referred to as "The Gateway to the West" is the centerpiece of Gateway Arch National Park and has become an internationally recognized symbol of St. Louis, as well as a popular tourist destination.

Parthenon

The Parthenon is a former temple on the Athenian Acropolis, Greece, dedicated to the goddess Athena, whom the people of Athens considered their patron. Construction began in 447 BC when the Athenian Empire was at the peak of its power. It was completed in 438 BC, although decoration of the building continued until 432 BC. It is the most important surviving building of Classical Greece, generally considered the zenith of the Doric order. Its decorative sculptures are considered some of the high points of Greek art. The Parthenon is regarded as an enduring symbol of ancient Greece, Athenian democracy and Western civilization and one of the world's greatest cultural monuments. To the Athenians who built it, the Parthenon, and other Periclean monuments of the Acropolis, were seen fundamentally as a celebration of Hellenic victory over the Persian invaders and as a thanksgiving to the gods for that victory.

1) how did the mexican american war ignite a conflict over slavery between the north and the south?
Sav [38]

1- The United States Congress declared war on May 13, 1846. Americans from northern states and whigs (Republicans) generally opposed the war, while southern slavers and Democrats supported it.

The elements of anti-slavery in the north feared the expansion of the power of the slavers. The Whigs, in general, were interested in being able to strengthen the US economy through industrialization, not in acquiring more territory. Among the most strongly opponents in the House of Representatives was John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts. Adams for the first time made known his concern to expand the US territory in 1836 when he opposed the annexation of Texas. He continued with his arguments until 1846 for the same reason that the acquisition of territory in the south of the country would add territory to the slave states.

2- Both the agricultural sector and the textile industry were the main income producers of the state of South Carolina.

The predominance of the primary sector and the basic industry was the common denominator of the southern United States, whose economic development depended on a large percentage of African slaves, because it took a large amount of labor to develop these activities.

3- In 1860, the abolitionist Republican Abraham Lincoln won in the presidential elections of that year. South Carolina, fearing that Lincoln would definitively abolish slavery in the country, decided to separate from the United States. The state did so on December 20 of that year, being the first US state to separate itself from the rest of the country. Subsequently, ten other states would also be separated from the United States, and immediately joined to form the Confederate States of America.

Deffense [45]

The correct answers are B) Thomas Jefferson and D) Aron Burr.

<em>The two political leaders that belonged to a political party that sympathized with the French and was inspired by the French Revolution were Thomas Jefferson and Aron Burr.</em>

Thomas Jefferson always supported the French Revolution and helped in any way he could. Later he became one of the most important figures in American politics and it is renown by his Declaration of US Independence in June 1776. Aaron Burr was an American politician that served as the Vice President of the United States under the first term of Thomas Jefferson presidency. So it is correct to say that the two political leaders that belonged to a political party that sympathized with the French and was inspired by the French Revolution were Thomas Jefferson and Aron Burr.
