which of the following characterizes child labor in the 1800s?
children who worked hard had the opportunity to get promoted.
children performed physical labor after school each day.
children performed physical labor for long hours each day.
children had the opportunity to learn trade skills at work.

The correct answer is "Children performed physical labor for long hours each day".

With the incoming Industrial Revolution and the economic hardships brought to a majority of the population, child labour became extremely prominent. Children from poor families had no choice but contributing financially to the subsistence of their households and give up their childhood. In the early 1800s nearly two-thirds of factory workers in England and Scotland, were small children forced to do physical work for extended periods of time suffering inhuman conditions. On top of that, child wages were often between 10% to 20% of what an adult male would gain.

Even though some regulation of child labour was applied in the early 1800s, it still set a maxium of 12 hours per day for kids aged between 11 and 18, which is still outrageous. Arriving to the second half of the century, children under the age of 9 were no longer permitted to work. However, the real reason for the seizing of their exploitation, came about when advances in technology and automation made industries simply not need their work anymore. Also, compulsory schooling was pushed forward because of an increased need for educated employees that could operate more complex machinery.

answer: secession

secession, as it applies to the outbreak of the american civil war, comprises the series of events that began on december 20, 1860, and extended through june 8 of the next year when eleven states in the lower and upper south severed their ties with the union. the first seven seceding states of the lower south set up a provisional government at montgomery, alabama. after hostilities began at fort sumter in charleston harbor on april 12, 1861, the border states of virginia, arkansas, tennessee, and north carolina joined the new government, which then moved its capital to richmond, virginia. the union was thus divided approximately on geographic lines. twenty-one northern and border states retained the style and title of the united states, while the eleven slave states adopted the nomenclature of the confederate states of america.
