The correct answers are A) territory gained from Mexico in 1848. C) the Louisiana Purchase. D) the Wilmot Proviso.

The territories that were acquired by the United States that helped bring about the need for compromises dealing with slavery were the territory gained from Mexico in 1848, the Louisiana Purchase, and the Wilmot Proviso.

The Louisiana Purchase was bought from France in 1803 and gave the United States 828,00 square miles of new land. The US government agreed to pay $11,250,000 to the government of France.

Regarding the Wilmot Proviso, after the territory gained by the United States once it won the Mexican-American War, the Wilmot Proviso was designed to prohibit slavery in those new territories.

explanation:

as the old saying goes, all politics are local. state and federal governments affect our daily lives in numerous ways. yet, in our federal system, there is supposed to be a balance between federal and state power. as james madison envisioned it in federalist no. 51, “the power surrendered by the people” would be “divided between two distinct governments,” creating a balance of power that would enable the “different governments [to] control each other.”

united states reinforcements contributed greatly to three allied victories in france at: cantigny (first major american battle), argonne (the largest in the united states military history, involving 1.2 million american soldiers), and château-thierry (one of the first actions under general pershing).
