Answer:

What was the purpose of strikebreakers?

Strikebreakers, known pejoratively as scabs, are workers who continue to work during on-going strike action. Strikebreakers may be existing workers, those drafted in to plug the employment gap when other workers are striking, or those who cross picket lines in order to engage in employment.

Explanation:

Why are strikebreakers called scabs?

The term "scab" was first used in the 13th century to mean a nasty, itchy skin disease or the crust that forms on a wound. By 1806, the word "scab" arrived at its current meaning -- a strikebreaker who willingly crosses the picket line [source: Lexicon of Labor, Online Etymology Dictionary].

Who were the tribes that composed the army of the confederates
elixir [45]

Answer:

The American Civil War saw Native American individuals, bands, tribes, and nations participate in numerous skirmishes and battles.[2] Native Americans served in both the Union and Confederate military during the American Civil War. They were found in the Eastern, Western, and Trans-Mississippi Theaters. At the outbreak of the war, for example, the majority of the Cherokees sided with the Union, but soon after allied with the Confederacy.[3] Native Americans fought knowing they might jeopardize their sovereignty, unique cultures, and ancestral lands if they ended up on the losing side of the Civil War.[2][3] 28,693 Native Americans served in the Union and Confederate armies during the Civil War, participating in battles such as Pea Ridge, Second Manassas, Antietam, Spotsylvania, Cold Harbor, and in Federal assaults on Petersburg.

What claims could the British and Americans lay to the Oregon Territory?
DanielleElmas [232]
Oregon Territory was originally claimed by Great Britain, who, under their claim, established successful trade outposts such as the Hudson Bay Company, etc. However, during the course of westward expansion(manifest destiny, whatever), after Lewis and Clark's exploration of Oregon Territory, many Americans settled the Oregon territory, including missionaries and fur trappers, who of course set up shop. In the end, the American claim was stronger, as you can see, Oregon isnt influenced by Britain like parts of Canada are now.
