Lincolns goals for civil war and how they changed during the course of the civil war? how did african americans use there freedoms following civil war? what are carpet baggers and sharecropping?

Lincoln goals for civil war changed during the war, at the beginning the war was about preserving the union, but it later changed to ending slavery. This was clear during the Gettysburg Address, in this speech he talked about the principles of human equality and need to end slavery.

After slavery ended African Americans still had to face many problems, such as Black Codes that were laws that restricted legal rights to blacks, like the right to marry, own property and others.

Because of this, many African Americans used sharecropping that was a system of work that exchanged labor in return for housing, land and other commodities. Carpetbagger was a name that people called people who went south with cloth bags with goods from the north.

the correct answer is "pioneers carried all of their possessions on long and dangerous trails".

the first wave of pioneers travelled in 1842. they were merely 100 people. the next year that sum climbed to 1000 men, women, and children. these people travelled around 2,000 miles to oregon in the hopes of a better life. although the first part of the trip didn't present many obstacles, as time and miles went by they learnt that threat came from simple things, like becoming ill due to unclean water or bad food.

the weather didn't much, as wagons couldn't protect them from storms. as they travelled through the desert, the intense heat caused wood to shrink. their own lips abscessed and split because of the dry air. the only cure for this was to rub axle grease on their lips.

even crossing rivers was dangerous. sometimes wheels were damaged by unseen rocks on shallow water. mud didn't much either. pioneers were afraid of indian attacks, but there aren't many records of fights between pioneers and native americans. accidents happened because of negligence, exhaustion, guns, and bad weather.

history says that 1 of 10 pioneers who travelled to oregon didn't survive the journey. diseases spread fastly because they didn't have doctors and medical care was ofently improvised. one of the most deadly diseases they came upon was cholera, which became a worldwide pandemia.
