They worried that Lincoln would try to end slavery in the United States.
==========================================================
Explanation:
The issue of slavery was debated and fought over for many years before the election of 1860. It was only until Lincoln became president that sparked the southern states to secede, which led to the Civil War. Proof of this is found in the many Declaration of Secession documents produced by each state that left the union. This is basically a document explaining why they left the United States to form the Confederate States of America (CSA) aka the Confederacy.
In modern times, some people mistakenly claim that the Civil War wasn't over slavery but rather states' rights. This is simply false. The documents I mentioned prove that slavery was the core issue. More proof is the various states having issues with the fugitive slave act, in that the northern states didn't really adhere to the law to the level of the southern states' liking. I guess you could argue that states' rights were involved, but specifically the south fought to have the right to own slaves. In short, it's all about getting the correct context. Expanding that context, simply look at the decades preceding the war and notice all of the tension involving whether a new state was a free state vs a slave state.
Answer:
3. Reason
Explanation:
Many of the ancient philosophers thought the reason to be the core of humanity and wisdom, the most important characteristics.
<u>Plato’s </u><u>teachings divided the soul into three parts: will, appetite and reason</u>. These parts could clash (our earning and appetite could clash over reason or willpower clashes with the wants), <u>but to operate correctly reason should rule over all other aspects of a person's character</u>. Passion and spirit should never rule over human reason.
<u>Aristotle</u><u>, who was Plato’s student, adopted this idea</u>. He was the one who <u>defined people as rational animals</u> stating that what separates people from other creatures is exactly the<u> possibility to think reasonably. </u>
The correct answer is sectionalism :)
The Senate was the most powerful branch of the Roman republic, and senators held the position for life. The executive branch was made up of two consuls, elected yearly. These two consuls had almost kingly powers, and each could veto, or disapprove of the other's decision.
