Question

how did the fourteenth amendment change american governance?
made slavery illegal in all american states
asserted the federal governments power to enforce the bill of rights over the authority of the states
abolished vagrancy laws in the south
divided the u.s. south into five military zones to ensure the creation of fair state governments

Explanation:

The Fourteenth Amendment, ratified in 1868, included the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause. It was a key Reconstruction - era amendment. The Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery, so the first option is incorrect. Vagrant laws were not abolished by the Fourteenth Amendment. The division of the South into military zones was part of the Military Reconstruction Acts, not the Fourteenth Amendment. The Fourteenth Amendment's incorporation doctrine (over time, through Supreme Court cases) allowed the federal government to enforce the Bill of Rights against the states, asserting federal power in this regard.

Answer:

Asserted the federal government’s power to enforce the Bill of Rights over the authority of the states
