Answer:
John Adams.
Explanation:
Before being President, John Adams was a prominent American diplomat in Europe.
In 1778, Adams was sent to Paris to obtain support for the United States from the French. The following year, he returned to the United States to formulate his own constitution for the state of Massachusetts.
In November 1779, Adams returned to Europe on a diplomatic mission and, together with John Jay and Benjamin Franklin, obtained the Treaty of Paris in 1783, which ended hostilities between the British and American settlements.
Adams also worked simultaneously in the Netherlands, where he negotiated a $ 2 million loan to the United States. The Dutch provinces recognized U.S. independence in April 1782, and Adams was received as the U.S. ambassador.
After the end of hostilities, Adams was appointed the first British ambassador to the United Kingdom in 1785. He held this position until 1788 and then returned to the United States.
Family Life for Slaves
Slaves marriages and families were not recognised officially by American Law. The owner was free to sell the husbands, wives, children, or siblings of any slave family. Families were often not kept together as large slaveholders had numerous plantations and would shift slaves frequently, which split up families.
10 - 20% of slave marriages were destroyed by the sale. Over a third of all slave children grew up in a household from which one or both parents were absent.
If the family lived on the same plantation, the man could only visit his family if his master let him.
Despite the frequent breakup of families due to the sales, they managed to form strong and durable family/kin ties within the institution. Most slaves married (unofficially) and lived with the same spouse until death. To keep a sense of family identity, children were named after parents, grandparents, or great grandparents etc. as it kept the family strong and together.
Family destruction and dispersal created kinship networks across the country.
There was a flaw that allowed Thomas Jefferson and Aron Burr to tie in the electoral collage.
