The first United States government was called the Articles of Confederation. Hope this helped :)

<span>Agriculture was key to the development of modern "civilization" because by being able to grow food rather than getting it through trade or hunting, people were able to stay in one place instead of having to be where the food was. This also led to jobs because people became highly skilled in growing crops.</span>
The Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves in the Confederate states, therefore encouraging them to rise up.
