An independent or free press would not be a trait of a fascist government. Fascist governments routinely restrict and suppress the press. It was not uncommon for those governments to control the press and publish official papers which supported their policies.
<u>Answer:</u>
The “Black Codes” of the early English colonies was formed to prevent English colonists from abusing their slaves.
Option: (A)
<u>Explanation:</u>
- Even though the code was formed to protect slaves from masters and masters from defiant slaves, it provided far more protection to masters than to slave.
- This code also denied slaves of basic rights that are guaranteed under English Common Law.
- These codes effectively established the idea of white supremacy into the law.
- These codes were formed to segregate white colonists from black slaves.
The United States had many reasons for going to war in 1812: Britain’s interference with its trade and impressment of its seamen; Americans’ desire to expand settlement into Indian, British, and Spanish territories; aspirations to conquer Canada and end British influence in North America; and upholding the nation’s sovereignty and vindicating its honor.
However, nations go to war infrequently, and a more interesting question is why the United States declared war. While the young members of Congress—the War Hawks—were in favor of war, the nation’s two presidents during this era, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, were not. Both viewed war and its consequences—a standing army, increase in government size, and debt—as antithetical to republicanism. They were convinced instead that self-imposed restrictions on American trade would force Britain and France, who were fighting in the Napoleonic Wars, to respect American neutrality.
The New England states particularly feared great losses to their trade, and their representatives in Congress voted against war. Others argued that America was totally unprepared for war against the mighty British Empire. Perhaps, however, War Hawk John C. Calhoun glimpsed the real cause in his observation that the conflict was “a second struggle for our liberty,” to finish the struggle for our independence.
