Answer:

The Fugitive Slave Acts were a pair of federal laws that allowed for the capture and return of runaway enslaved people within the territory of the United States. Enacted by Congress in 1793, the first Fugitive Slave Act authorized local governments to seize and return escapees to their owners and imposed penalties on anyone who aided in their flight. Widespread resistance to the 1793 law led to the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which added more provisions regarding runaways and levied even harsher punishments for interfering in their capture. The Fugitive Slave Acts were among the most controversial laws of the early 19th century.

WHO WON THE WAR OF 1812??<br> and why did they win?
liraira [26]

Answer:

hey! hope this helps love!!

Britain effectively won the War of 1812 by successfully defending its North American colonies. But for the British, the war with America had been a mere sideshow compared to its life-or-death struggle with Napoleon in Europe.

Explanation:

The War of 1812 came to an end largely because the British public had grown tired of the sacrifice and expense of their twenty-year war against France. Now that Napoleon was all but finally defeated, the minor war against the United States in North America lost popular support.

How can our interpretations of the Constitution change?
Alexxandr [17]
Well first of all, the Constitution can be interpreted in many different ways just like any other passage that you might read.These interpretations change over time based on events that happen and society changing.For example the Second Amendment has the possibility of being repealed in the near future because of public shootings.
An amendment is the only way to change the Constitution and they are formal as I'm pretty sure that both houses of Congress-the Senate and the House of Representatives- has to agree to the change.

Which Persian leader do you think made the biggest contribution
torisob [31]
Cyrus' conquest was relatively humane compared to empires preceding his, such as the Babylonians and Assyrians. He allowed many areas of his empire a great deal of autonomy, rather than centrally controlling things. This distributed leadership allowed Persia to cover a greater geographical area than previous empires in that era and still be fairly stable, since most of its subjects were content to remain under Persian rule. Persian law was more codified and less arbitrary than previous empires; the king's seal declared approval of law which could only be reversed by further approved decrees -- not quite rule of law but going in that direction.

Which of the following best explains why Clarence Saunders Keedoozle concept failed?
vladimir1956 [14]
It failed because either the change did not work well in many business settings, or it was inefficient (due to the inefficiency of the conveyer-belt system). A more accurate reason is that the circuits couldn't handle the traffic during peak hour. The customer's orders were regularly mixed up. The conveyer-belt system was not fast enough or efficient enough to handle it.
