Why is Kentucky Blue Grass not blue?
It's not actually blue but there is a slight tinge. You know, like the Blue Mountains in Australia, they're not actually blue but you know what I mean. Oh, the blueness isn't because of Eucalyptus oil, it's not related to Eucalyptus at all. It's kind of blue because of the unique chlorophyll.
What is the legal age you can move out of your parental home in Nebraska?
Leaving Home
The parents of an non-emancipated minor have the custody and control of such minor. This means that the parents can legally decide where the minor lives until the minor reaches the age of majority (usually 18) or otherwise becomes emancipated.
If a minor moves away from the home of his or her parents or legal guardians without their permission, that minor can be picked up by authorities as a runaway. Depending upon the state, there may be an evaluation stage in which the situation is reviewed to insure that the individual is not endangered by being returned to the home. Some states have recognized that minors that are 16 or 17 are often considered questionable as to their ability to leave home. Authorities may not want to deal with minors in this age group and some states are establishing legislation enforcing the age of majority and eliminating any questions in the eyes of the law enforcement community.
Check with your local laws for more specifics. If you are in an unsafe environment, law enforcement personnel can put you in contact with the appropriate agencies to obtain help.

The question was, how should slaves be counted for the purpose of Congressional representation? The South wanted to count all slaves as "population", because this would increase the number of Representatives from the slave states. The northern states didn't want to include slaves AT ALL; if they weren't fully citizens and couldn't vote, why should they be counted for purposes of representation?
The "three fifths" compromise gave southern states some additional Congressional representation, without giving the South an overwhelming advantage.

How many states are there in Qatar?
Mainly, citizens (and residents) of Qatar do not have poverty as they all are employed with good source of income. Government and other nonprofit agencies make continuous donations to citizens and those who have established residence in the country. With population of approximately 2 million, and GDP (Per Capita $) of 102,768.69, poverty is barely unknown in this (filthy) wealthy country of Qatar. However, there is a high rate of abuse and discrimination against foreigners including lack of labor laws which should enforce employers to abide by any given laws as far as creating safe and healthy working environment, and paying the workers as promised. The government itself does not ensure its people to be free from danger and disease by neglecting these (Southeast) Asian immigrant workers and does not listen to their complains and/or problems.
Discrimination and abuse is known among Gulf Countries (United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar) against foreigners and non-national population. There is no human rights in these countries, at least not equally.
As the richest country in the world, it is unfortunate to see failure in Qatari government's part to establish Welfare and healthcare system to its people. Even though Qatar nationals have access to better opportunities compared to their counterparts, residents and foreigners, the government could not establish a fair-system that treats everyone the same.
There is no poverty in Qatar, but there is a great deal of abuse and non humanitarian rights.
How did the US Civil War impact Kentucky?
It only "freed" slaves in territories the US no longer controlled. In other words, it freed no slaves, but instead served as a moral impetus for the North's flagging war effort.
If Lincoln had indeed free slaves in Kentucky, or any of the border states, the threat of further secession would have potentially damaged the Union beyond repair. These states still had sizable slave holdings, so Lincoln had to approach the issue with kid gloves. He was against slavery as an institution, but his desire to preserve the Union trumped all else.
It took the 13th Amendment to the Constitution after the war to officially end slavery in Kentucky and all the other states which had remained loyal.
