Why aircrafts body is riveted?
Air craft are mostly made from aluminum. Welding aluminum parts is very difficult to do. Conventional welding is not applicable to aluminum although some techniques to that exist. However there are limitations to welding in general 1) Difficult to control the quality of the welds. For this purpose the welds need to go thru x-ray or ultrasound or some other quality assurance procedure. 2) Welds are prone to fatigue failure. Fatigue failure happens without much warning thus difficult to catch during inspections. 3) Welds are difficult to undo/redo for planes in service. Service or inspection may require access under the fuselage (skin) of a plane. Undo and redo the weld is dangerous to perform on the winds of a plane where fuel tanks are located. With comparison to rivets welding also in disadvantage 1) Ductility of welds is lower. (Ductility - ability to plasticly stretch without failure) Thus if overstress occurs the weld breaks suddenly and rivet deforms to allow stress redistribution. Plastic deformation is easy to detect during inspection.

Why did the seven days' battle happen?
In the early spring of 1862 Union General George McClellan landed the Army of the Potomac on the York-James Peninsula.His plan was to move up the peninsula and capture Richmond(the Capitol of the Confederacy). Over the next few months he was able to push the Confederate forces under the command of General Joseph Johnston back to within less than 5 miles(at some points) of Richmond. On May 31 and June1 the battles of Fair Oaks and Seven Pines were fought during which Johnston was seriously wounded. On June 1 General Robert E. Lee was appointed to take command of the Confederate forces. On June 25 Lee's Army of Northern Virginia began an aggressive counter-attack which in the space of "Seven Days" would undo what took McClellan several months to do. The last battle was at Malvern Hill. The purpose was to relieve Richmond of the near proximity of Union forces.

How did Stephen Douglas plan to undo the Missouri compromise?
Stephen Douglas was eager to develop west of his home from Illionois. As a result, he suggested to form two new territories : Kansas and Nebraska. However, many Southerners rejected the idea because under the Missouri Compromise, the territories would be admitted as free states. Douglas then proposed that the upcoming territories would be decided by popular sovereignty, earning the South's favor and thus, removing the Missouri Compromise.
