Question 26
24 / 25 pts
How did westward expansion lead to tensions between the
American North and South and foreshadow further conflict
between the two regions?
Your Answer:
Slavery was one the major issues that affected the growth of the
United States. It was also a major reason while the civil war
took place between the North and South. Due that content, the
Missouri Compromise was passed.
The Missouri Compromise was passed in 1820 after the
congress came up with a compromise with the help of Henry
Clay. The Missouri Compromise accepted Missouri as a slave
state and Maine would be granted freedom after seeking for
independence for a long period of time which also drew a line
across the territory acquired at 36ø30' Latitude. (Keene,
Cornell & O'Donnell, 2013 p.214). Doing so, was to create a
balance between the free states and slave states.
In 1850, everyone disagreed with the Compromise because it
created confusion and most people were unsure who would
benefit from it. This Compromise created unequal
representation between the North and South thereby allowing
the union to possess more free states including California. The
compromise was very indecisive whether New Mexico and Utah
16. should be considered free or slave state. The abolishment of
slave trade was settled (Keene, Cornell & O'Donnell, 2013 p.
347)
The South were very shocked because even know slave trade
was abolished in Washington D.C, slavery was still legal
because the South was restricted on importation of slaves from
other countries.
The United States were successful with the compromises and
expanded west by isolating the South from the North. Using the
Missouri Compromise, in 1820 and the Compromise of 1850 in
1850 , to expand the main ongoing issue was slavery.
Chapter 11, p. 316–337
Question 27
23 / 25 pts
Describe the contributions of African Americans to the Union
war effort. What special challenges did they face?
Your Answer:
The African Americans were ready and eager to fight with the
white soldiers in order to end slavery and also maintain their
freedom that was granted by the North. Even though they were
treated with so much racism by the Union army. They had issues
with finding new recruiters and this was a major challenge
(Keene, Cornell & O'Donnell, 2013 p 392).
They also faced brutal treatment in the hands of the
confederates when captured (Keene, Cornell & O'Donnell, 2013
p 392) . For example, poor hygiene. Soldiers didn't have enough
space to place their tents and they were close to the latrines.
They bathed in the same way they used for drinking. They
received poor training and also poor weapons as the white
soldiers.
They were subjected to execution as the rebellion slaves and
prisoners. In April 1864, the fort pillow Massacre in Tennessee,
confederate troops captured and murdered dozens of black
soldiers (Keene, Cornell & O'Donnell, 2013 p 393).
17. Lastly, they received unequal pay rates than white soldiers.
Initially, war department agreed to pay the black soldiers the
same $13 per month but that changed in June 1863 during
Lincoln administration and perceived the African
Americans unequal, and reduced their pay to $7 per month.
