Answer 1

Americans demanded the world's attention during their Civil War and Reconstruction.

The immigration is not central to our understanding of the American Civil war and its impact on the american writing that ensued. Correct answer:C All other issues were part of the main topics of the war.

Answer 2

The correct answer is C) Immigration.

The American Civil War consisted of fighting between the Union and the Confederacy. After the election of 1860, seven different states seceded from the Union because they were afraid that Lincoln would expand the power of the federal government (therefor giving states less rights) and that he would try to abolish slavery. Abolishing slavery would ruin the Southern economy, as this area relied heavily on slave labor to produce goods such as cotton.
