What acts by Congress were intended to prevent this repressive social and political order?

Mamont248 [21]

The correct answer is C) establishment of the Freedmen's Bureau.

The acts by Congress that were intended to prevent this repressive social and political order were the establishment of the Freedmen's Bureau.

In a time of ecom¿nomic problems and political instability, the Freedmen's Bureau was a real help for former black slaves and poor white people that lived in the south and practically had nothing after the conclusion of the American Civil War.

The US Congress approved the establishment of the Freedmen's Bureau in 1865 to assist these people with medical attention, food, shelter, and education. Unfortunately, there was not enough money to accomplish these, besides the political "climate" in the racist's southern states never accepted this Freedmen's Bureau.

Following the Opium Was, what were the outcomes of the Treaty of Ninijing?

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Treaty of Nanjing, (August 29, 1842) treaty that ended the first Opium War, the first of the unequal treaties between China and foreign imperialist powers. China paid the British an indemnity, ceded the territory of Hong Kong, and agreed to establish a “fair and reasonable” tariff. British merchants, who had previously been allowed to trade only at Guangzhou (Canton), were now permitted to trade at five “treaty ports” and with whomever they pleased (see Canton system). The treaty was supplemented in 1843 by the British Supplementary Treaty of the Bogue, which allowed British citizens to be tried in British courts and granted Britain any rights in China that China might grant to other countries.

What happened to many loyalists following the American Revolution?

zhuklara [117]

Many loyalists fled to Canada after the American Revolution.

Answer: C) They fled to Canada to avoid punishment.

Explanation:

The loyalists fled to Canada after the American Revolution. As the American Revolution gave freedom to the enslaved Africans and Indians Around 80,000 of them fled to Canada and Britain. Because they were wealthy, educated and older.

They often suffered bad treatment from the patriots and therefore, had to flee from their own homes. Even after the war there were some people who remained loyal to the British crown. And so the American colonists would often treat them brutally.
