Answer:
EDUCATION IN THE SOUTHERN COLONIES
In the 1840's, the growth of state funded public education was blossoming in states from Connecticut to Illinois (see also "Normal Schools" in the Common School section of this web page). However, the Southern states did not have a tradition of public education to build on, as the North did, and in fact, it was well after the Civil War before the South legislated for state supported schools. This occurred for several different reasons.
First and foremost, Southerners believed that education was a private matter and not a concern for the state. They were quick to point out that in all traditional societies the most important training a child receives is in the home where he/she is inducted into the values of the society he/she is about to enter. If the family fails in this endeavor, then how can the schools be more successful? They felt a priority should be placed upon creating a college-bred elite, if their traditions and way of life were to be successfully transferred to successive generations. This system helped to perpetuate the sharply defined social-class structure which existed in the South. There were planters (plantation owners) and there were slaves; no middle-class existed in the South to bridge the gap between upper and lower classes, and as such, there was no demand for services beyond that provided for those who could afford to pay. Another reason that public education did not flourish in the South was that the population was more dispersed than it was in the North, making it difficult to find enough children in one area to justify a school. Also, the Anglican religion of the South did not put quite as much emphasis on religious indoctrination through schooling as did Puritan New England. The final reason was the South's feeling about slavery, which will be mentioned below.
There were some Southerners who supported a public school system. Many of these supporters solicited advice and materials from Horace Mann, the first secretary of the first State Board of Education, created in Massachusetts in 1837. Mann also published a newsletter, "The Common School Journal" which provided information about the public school system to anyone expressing an interest in learning more about the Massachusetts experiment. As a result, he engaged in extensive correspondence. In response to the Southerners' distrust of public education Mann wrote "...colleges and academies never will act downward to raise the mass of people by education; but, on the contrary, common schools will feed and sustain the academies and colleges. Heat ascends, and it will warm upwards, but it will not warm downwards." As public opinion solidified in the south in defense of the Southern way of life, ideas originating in the north, particularly regarding education, were considered "subversive". The Prussian educational methods so popular in New England were denounced as "autocratic."
"Knowledge is Power" and as events conspired to bring the Civil War ever closer, the Southerner asked, "Who should be entrusted with this power?" Certainly not a slave. Southern colonies began passing laws to make it a crime to teach slaves to read and write. Only the Catholics and Friends (Quakers) continued their efforts to educate the black people in the South, and they were few in number. The North, with its Puritan heritage, had for many decades supported education as a means of providing religious training to its children. In the South, where the religious emphasis was Anglican (Church of England), the religious leaders supported the slave owners by providing oral (not written) religious training for the slaves. One minister commented that instead of reading the Bible, literate slaves would soon be reading documents filtering down from the North inciting rebellion, and pose a threat to the Southern family. Supporting slavery as an institution became the patriotic thing to do.

Explanation:
We, the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution of the United States of America.
How did the 15th, 19th, and 26th Amendments expand the "Blessings of Liberty" to more of the United States' population?
15th: The 15th amendment outlawed the ability for a state to deny a citizen's right to vote based on race, color, or past servitude. This allowed more people the right to the liberties others had, promoting general welfare among all races.
19th: The 19th amendment made it so that a state could not deny the right for a citizen to vote based on gender. Similar to the 15th amendment, the Blessings of Liberty had been bestowed among more people, as now all genders had the right to vote.
26th: The 26th amendment stated that everyone over the age of 18 has the right to vote, and no age discrimination is to take place. This granted more liberty to those who were once unable to vote. This was the final of the amendments, meaning that now all races, genders, and everyone 18+ is given the freedom to partake in our elections.
I hope I've helped! :)
Answer:
The 15th amendment outlawed the ability of a state to deny a citizen's right to vote based on race, color, or past servitude. This allowed more people to have liberties that other people had, promoting general welfare among the people. The 19th amendment denied the states the right to not allow people to vote based on gender. This allowed people of any gender to vote. This is similar to the 15th amendment because it promoted general welfare due to the fact that now all genders could vote. The 26th amendment allowed anyone over the age of 18 to vote. This was the last of the voting amendments, now allowing any person of race, color, gender and over the age of 18 to vote.

How was Hitler's Nazis reoccupiedthe Rhineland?
Nazi leader Adolf Hitler violates the Treaty of Versailles and the Locarno Pact by sending German military forces into the Rhineland, a demilitarized zone along the Rhine River in western Germany.
The Treaty of Versailles, signed in July 1919—eight months after the guns fell silent in World War I—called for stiff war reparation payments and other punishing peace terms for defeated Germany. Having been forced to sign the treaty, the German delegation to the peace conference indicated its attitude by breaking the ceremonial pen. As dictated by the Treaty of Versailles, Germany’s military forces were reduced to insignificance and the Rhineland was to be demilitarized.

The following battles are correctly matched with reasons.
Manassas - Where the Civil War began Gettysburg - First battle with heavy casualtiesFort Sumter - General Robert E Lee surrendered to General Ulysses S. Grant.Appomattox - Turned the tide of the war in the North's favorThe American Civil War's opening significant engagement took place at the First Battle of Bull Run on July 21, 1861.
One of the worst conflicts of the Civil War was the Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, which caused a high number of casualties.
The first battle of the Civil War took place at Fort Sumter in South Carolina, but it was not directly related to Lee's capitulation to Grant. At Appomattox, the surrender took place.
The Civil War came to an end on April 9, 1865, with the Battle of Appomattox Court House, which saw the surrender of General Robert E. Lee to General Ulysses S. Grant and ultimately shifted the balance of power in favor of the North.
Thus, the mentioned above are correctly matched with their reason.
