Explanation:

                               PLESSY V. FERGUSON

        The Plessy v. Ferguson case of 1896 was a very important part of history, because it highlighted the segregation and how much of it there was during that time. This case brought about the saying “Separate but Equal”.  Plessy used his mixed race background as his first defense. Plessy was ⅛ African American and ⅞ Caucasian. Because he was mostly caucasian he argued that he was entitled to every right, privilege and immunity secured to citizens of the United States of the white race. He specifically  took possession of a vacant seat in a railroad coach where passengers of the white race were accommodated.                            

       Unfortunately for Mr. Plessy the Court decided that his rights had not been violated. They determined that the 13th and 14th amendments apply to political votes and don't apply to social rights. Judge Ferguson ruled that Louisiana, by state law, has the power to set rules regulating railroad business within its borders. Louisiana could make its own rules regarding seating and ,therefore, Mr. Plessy's rights had not been violated. The criminal District Court charged in substance that Plessy, being a passenger between two stations within the State of Louisiana, was assigned by officers of the company to the coach used for the race to which he appeared to belong. Mr. Plessy's skin tone was dark. He insisted upon going into a coach used by the race according to the officers to which he did not belong . The State of Louisiana had, six years earlier, enacted a law providing for separate railway carriages for white and colored races. The constitutionality of the law was the issue before the court in the Plessy v. Ferguson case. Thus we now understand the significance and why this case was an important part of history. Because of this very important case we now understand how minor the details were for segregation. Even though we have come a far way from then we still need to remember why the quote “Separate but Equal” came about and this important human rights quote.

Why did Confederate forces invade the North in September 1862?

Answers

Answer:

A short thrust into Union territory would not be enough; a protracted stay would be the key to Confederate success.

Name 2 advantages the north had when the Civil War began.

Answers

The North had double the railroads per square mile compared to the South, and they had a tremendous industrial advantage over the South as well during the Civil War.

Answer:

2 additional advantages that the USA had against the CSA, was:

1) Population: Even counting the large amount of slaves that reside in CSA (many of which would not support the CSA cause, and therefore, cannot be called upon to fight for the CSA), the US still outnumbered the CSA population-wise by ~13 million. Population is key in many war efforts, especially in the creation of armies, as well as workers to create war industry goods for the soldiers to use, and of course, to fill in the ranks of the military branches.

2) More weight within the foreign powers: The USA was already a recognized nation by the American Civil War, and were able to communicate as a nation to the foreign powers on the status of their country. As such, they were able to persuade many foreign nations to not recognize the CSA as a nation. As it was not a recognized nation, the CSA was not allowed to ask for foreign aid, and few was given to it, particularly from private foreign citizens, which in turn led to a deficiency of their fiat dollars. This led to huge inflations and the failure for them to acquire much needed goods and materials, leading to the even heavier reliance of their cotton industry.

Answer:

The Norse had explored and colonized north eastern North America c. 1000 CE, a later and more well known wave of European colonization of the Americas took place in the Americas between about 1500 CE and 1800 CE, during the Age of Exploration. During this time period, several European empires primarily Spain, Portugal, Britain, and France began to explore and claim the natural resources and human capital of the Americas resulting in the disestablishment of some Indigenous Nations, and the establishment of several settler-colonial states.[1] Some formerly European settler colonies including New Mexico, Alaska, the Prairies/northern Great Plains, and the "Northwest Territories" in North America; the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, the Yucatán Peninsula, and the Darién Gap in Central America; and the northwest Amazon, the central Andes, and the Guianas in South America remain relatively rural, sparsely populated and Indigenous into the 21st century, however several settler-colonial states, including Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, and the United States grew into settler-colonial empires in their own right.[2] Many of the social structures including religions, political boundaries, and linguae francae that predominate the western hemisphere in the 21st century are descendants of the structures established during this period.
