Let's address the first three questions presented:
Question 10:
The Emancipation Proclamation was not a law created by Congress to free Black people in the United States.
The answer is True. The Emancipation Proclamation was an executive order issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, during the American Civil War. It declared that all enslaved people in Confederate states in rebellion against the Union "shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free." It was not a law passed by Congress but rather a wartime measure taken by the President under his executive powers.
Question 11:
Initially, British Common law consisted of unwritten Anglo-Saxon customs.
The answer is True. British Common Law originated from the customs and judicial decisions of the Anglo-Saxon period. These customs were unwritten and were passed down through generations. Over time, they were formalized and recorded, forming the basis of the common law system that developed in England.
Question 12:
In medieval Europe, society was organized under the Monarchy and was divided into Estates.
The answer is True. In medieval Europe, society was typically organized under a feudal system, which was hierarchical and divided into three main estates: the clergy (First Estate), the nobility (Second Estate), and the commoners or peasants (Third Estate). The monarchy was at the top of this structure, with the king or queen holding the highest authority.
