Explanation:

The Fertile Crescent is a region comprising the present states of Palestine, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon and Cyprus, as well as parts of Syria, Iraq, Egypt, southeast of Turkey and southwest of Iran.

The term "Fertile Crescent" was created by James Henry Breasted, an archaeologist at the University of Chicago, in reference to the fact that the arc formed by the different zones resembles a crescent moon. The name "fertile" comes from the fact of the region to have rich soil for farming.

regarding the law, the 15th amendment was specifically designed thinking in the rights of black free men.

even though ratified on february 3, 1870, the promise of the 15th amendment would not be fully applied for a long time.poll taxes and literacy tests would allow southern states disenfranchise african americans. only in 1965 the voting rights for african americans would be actually able to vote in the south.
