Which best describes the purpose of the European Union? A. to help foster peace and economic collaboration among European nations B. to protect Europe from invasion by foreign countries C. to create ethnic and political divisions within Europe D. to assist with the reunification of Germany

Answers

The correct answer is Option A) To help foster peace and economic collaboration among European nations.

After the almost subsequent devastating wars of World War I and World War II, Europe's social and economic fabric has been completely destroyed.

From small countries such as Poland to larger countries such as France and UK, every country suffered greatly loosing millions of people.

After the 1945, European government started to devise a way to become of a 'club' that would encourage trade, travel and social exchanges between all European countries.

Today, this has manifested itself in the form of a European Union and even the single currency known as the Euro.

Personally, Lincoln was opposed to slavery. Why then, did he not end it the moment he was elected president?

Answers

Lincoln did not end the institution of slavery when he was elected president for several reasons. The main one was he feared how the Southern states would respond to getting rid of slavery. Lincoln knew that America's political landscape was at a very fragile stage, as there was constant fighting between Northern and Southern politicians in Congress. He feared that trying to immediately abolish the institution of slavery would result in a breaking up of the United States.

Even though he does not do this immediately, Southern states start to secede as soon as he wins the election. Just three short weeks after Lincoln wins the presidency, South Carolina becomes the first state to secede.

He was going to eventually put slavery into extinction by stopping it's further expansion in the U.S. territory. But he was going to wait for the 13th Amendment to do put slavery into extinction.
