Kentucky

The defense of their country (the Confederate States of America). They removed themselves from the United States because they were being severely taxed with very little representation in the house and felt that their rights were being infringed upon. After bickering within a northern controled congress for several years, they decided they could not find an acceptable solution and still remain in the Union. They removed themselves from the United States in 1861, and retained national sovereignty for about 3 years until they were finally worn down by invading US troops.

Thomas Jefferson and James Madison.

The top three industries are automobile manufacturing, coal mining, and horse farming.

Kentucky was a border state which means it didn't know what side to be on. Other border states were Montana, West Virgina, Delaware, and Maryland.
Kentucky never seceded from the Union so it would be classified as a Union state, however it was one of the border states (along with Maryland and Missouri). The border states were slave states and had competing Union and Confederate governments. While 75,000 men (including 23,000 African Americans) served in the Union army, a significant number of Kentuckians went south, primarily with the "Orphan Brigade".

the northern states relied heavily on cotton, rice, indigo, and tobacco

Fresh air, clean water, abundant game, virgin forests - then the Europeans came & mucked it up.

The geologic history of Vermont begins more than 450 million years ago during the Cambrian and Devonian periods.

Human history of Native American settlement can be divided into the hunter-gatherer Archaic Period, from c. 7000–1000 BC, and the sedentary Woodland Period, from c. 1000 BC to AD 1600. Vermont was admitted to the United States as the fourteenth state in 1791 after a brief period of sovereignty following the American Revolutionary War. Vermont experienced rising abolitionist sentiment and subsequently fought on the Union side of the American Civil War.

About 2, but before that it had to be a boy or they wouldn't take them,

Actually, it was about 3.8 children per family, down from 7 in the 1800s, and they did not 'refuse' the baby if she was a girl.

While Daniel Boone is often credited the earliest recorded may have been James McBride.

Your elaborations on the question have been moved to the discussion section.

You have not filed charges. You have filed a civil complaint for a protective order, and may have made a report to the police. Private individuals are not permitted to file criminal charges. Only the state, through the prosecuting attorney, can do this. If you have made a report to the police, you would need to follow up with the police to find out if the case has been referred to the local prosecutor. You would also want to follow up with the criminal prosecutor to determine if/when they will file criminal charges.

If the prosecutor does opt to file criminal charges, and if the defendant is convicted, the punishment would be determined by the judge.

Contrary to popular belief, simply becoming a parent does not make a person emancipated. Generally speaking, the only way to become an emancipated minor is by order of the court (and not all states have emancipation laws), getting (legally) married, or joining the military (which minors need parental consent to do).

One of the smallest towns in Kentucky is New Castle, 35 minutes away from Louisville, with a population of 919.

A town called Plymouth Village has a population of 201.

There are many, many towns in Kentucky with a population less than 1000. (of course, it also depends on what you call a "town").

Concord, Ky has a population of 28 (It's in the Northeast part of the state, along the Ohio river).

Kentucky is a "no-fault" state concerning divorce. Only "irreconcilable differences" are recognized as grounds for divorce.

A minor can begin work in Kentucky at age of 14 years old.

As of May 2014, the Kentucky supreme court has not ruled on the constitutionality of Kentucky's ban on same-sex marriage.

The state's legal age is 18, a pregnant minor or minor who already has a child is not considered emancipated. If the parents of the minor do not object to her moving in with the father of her child it is not likely that authorities would take any action against the adult male unless unusual circumstances applied. Although the state does not recognize common law marriage, it does recognize the intent of a couple living together to become marryied. Because the state allows minors who are pregnant or have a child to marry without parental consent, cohabitation of a minor female older than 16 with an adult is rarely challenged as long as the couple are self-supporting, and there are no mitigating circumstances.

yes.

but you aren't able to obtain them until you're 21.

it's until you're 18. You can get your permit when you're 18, keep it for 6 months then get your license. -Mal

If a person meets all the legal requirements for the state they choose to be maried they are legally married in all other states. However, if a person does not legally marry according to the laws of the state in which the marriage occurs, the marriage is not legally valid in any state. If a minor(s) believe they can get married in a different state than the one in which they live to avoid problems (such as parental opposition) the marriage will not be allowed. Also, if fraudulent documents are used to circumvent state laws a marriage will not be legally valid.

He created the Compromise of 1850. Which called for four things: 1. California was admitted to the Union as a free state. 2. The rest of the Mexican Cession was divided into the territories of New Mexico and Utah. People in these territories would decide for themselves whether or not to allow slavery. 3. The slave trade was abolished in Washington, D.C. 4. Congress passed the Fugitive Slave Law. This law stated that people in the free states had to help find and capture fugitive, or escaped, slaves.

This is not legal advice and should not be relied upon as such. Consult the specific laws for the state and county in which you reside for the rules that apply. In most states, any 18 year old is considered an adult and is capable of deciding when and where they reside. They have the ability to contract for housing. SOME states allow minors to become emancipated under specific circumstances, but this is not just a matter of filling out some paperwork. A minor is the responsibility of their parents until such time as they reach the age of majority or are legally emancipated. The parents are required to provide for the support of their minor children. If the parents give permission, the minor can live in another location. Such permission does not relieve the parents of the responsibility to provide support. If the parents do not give permission, the minor can be considered a runaway. Charges may apply to individuals that aid and abet such runaways, particularly if they are under the age of consent. In some states it is my understanding that this is not enforced for 17 year olds that leave home. If you are subject to abuse, you should contact social services for your area. They will assist you in getting out of the bad environment and into a safe place.

No those votes went to McCain and Palin.

Not enough is known about the defendant, their past history, or the case, in order to make an educated guess. It amounts to a misdemeanor which is punishable by less than one year in jail and/or a monetary fine.
