what is the 14th amendment
Answer:
The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1868, granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States—including former slaves—and guaranteed all citizens “equal protection of the laws.”
Explanation:
The Fourteenth Amendment (Amendment XIV) to the United States Constitution was adopted on July 9, 1868, as one of the Reconstruction Amendments. Arguably one of the most consequential amendments to this day, the amendment addresses citizenship rights and equal protection under the law and was proposed in response to issues related to former slaves following the American Civil War. The amendment was bitterly contested, particularly by the states of the defeated Confederacy, which were forced to ratify it in order to regain representation in Congress. The amendment, particularly its first section, is one of the most litigated parts of the Constitution, forming the basis for landmark decisions such as Brown v. Board of Education (1954) regarding racial segregation, Roe v. Wade (1973) regarding abortion, Bush v. Gore (2000) regarding the 2000 presidential election, and Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) regarding same-sex marriage. The amendment limits the actions of all state and local officials, and also those acting on behalf of such officials.
Answer:
The Equal Protection Clause in the Fourteenth Amendment

Has the United Nations been successful in its mission “to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war”? Explain your answer.
Answer:
The United Nations has been successful in limiting the emergence of new wars, but only partially. Although it has prevented the emergence of new confrontations on a global scale (especially during the Cold War, where its actions put a limit on the development of a world nuclear war), it has not been able to limit the development of smaller-scale wars, or even wars between various underdeveloped countries.
Thus, although conflicts between the great world powers such as the US, China, Russia, France, Great Britain, etc. were avoided, wars such as the Vietnam War, the Falklands War, the Gulf War or the Iraq War could not be limited. Even wars like the Congo Wars (collectively called the African World War due to the number of African countries involved) developed causing millions of deaths.
