The colonies are now the United States of America - what next? We need a government - but no one wants a king! What should they do? In a well developed paragraph - give your opinion of what they should do - how should they set up their government?

Answers

Explanation:

okay since the pple don't want a king maybe they should come up with a constitution and make rules that suit and benefit every citizen in one way or another and maybe appoint one person to be in charge of the constitution

Answer:

Now that the colonies are united as a whole, finding a fair and just way of government is very crucial and important. A king/monarchy was not an effective or fair way of leadership for the colonies previously, so a monarchy should not be instated. Each state having its own laws, leaders, and separated economy is a possibility, however it would not be the most effective choice. Each state having drastically different ways of living would increase tensions and create divisions among the people. The option that would be most correct would be having representative from every state come together as a committee, and that committee would be in charge of creating laws and enforcing the laws. This would be the most reasonable option because it would ensure that every state had representation and the decisions would be made in the best interests of every citizen, not only a select few.

Frederick Douglass will remain one of the most important figures in America's struggle for civil rights and racial equality for eternity. His influence can be seen in the politics and writings of almost all major African-American writers, Douglass, however, is an inspiration to more than just African Americans. He spoke out against oppression throughout America and abroad, and his struggle for freedom, self-discovery, and identity stands as a testament for all time, for all people. Born into slavery around 1818, he eventually escaped and became a respected American diplomat, a counselor to four presidents, a highly regarded public speaker, and an influential writer. He accomplished all of these feats without any formal education.

what are 20 facts about the scientific revolution?

Answers

Answer:

Scientific Revolution, drastic change in scientific thought that took place during the 16th and 17th centuries. A new view of nature emerged during the Scientific Revolution, replacing the Greek view that had dominated science for almost 2,000 years. Science became an autonomous discipline, distinct from both philosophy and technology, and it came to be regarded as having utilitarian goals. By the end of this period, it may not be too much to say that science had replaced Christianity as the focal point of European civilization. Out of the ferment of the Renaissance and Reformation there arose a new view of science, bringing about the following transformations: the reeducation of common sense in favour of abstract reasoning; the substitution of a quantitative for a qualitative view of nature; the view of nature as a machine rather than as an organism; the development of an experimental, scientific method that sought definite answers to certain limited questions couched in the framework of specific theories; and the acceptance of new criteria for explanation, stressing the “how” rather than the “why” that had characterized the Aristotelian search for final causes.

.People cannot be sold or denied.

Only Legislatures

or the law of the land can determine the consequences of one's actions.

Answer:

The correct answer is C. to prevent the king from having the power to abuse rights and inflict injustices.

Explanation:

The nobles hoped to accomplish this by having King John sign the Magna Carta. The document was written by a group of 13th-century barons to protect their rights and property against a tyrannical king. It was concerned with many practical matters and specific grievances relevant to the feudal system under which they lived. The interests of the common man were hardly apparent in the minds of the men who brokered the agreement. But there are two principles expressed in Magna Carta that resonate to this day: “No freeman shall be taken, imprisoned, disseised, outlawed, banished, or in any way destroyed, nor will We proceed against or prosecute him, except by the lawful judgment of his peers or by the law of the land” and "To no one will We sell, to no one will We deny or delay, right or justice".

What impacts did American settlers have on Native Americans and what were the
causes?

Answers

Answer:

American settlers were taught by Native americans how to trade and how to farm crops. American settlers later took the land away from Native Americans and out them on reservations

Answer:

they brought diseases to the Natives Americans that killed them for example

thay also died from over working and since the number of Native Am. decreased this is where the slave trade begins

Europeans brought many different things with them to the Americas. Europeans brought with them chickens, cows, horses, and pigs. These animals had never been in the New World before the Europeans’ arrival (note: horses had been in North America before the last Ice Age but had migrated off the continent). They also brought fruits and vegetables like bananas, oranges, grapes, onions, peaches, and limes. Many of these fruits and vegetables the Europeans were exposed to during the Crusades. Lastly, Europeans brought grains like rice and wheat to the Americas.

What kind of effect do you think this had on the Native Americans who already lived in the Americas? First, it impacted(changed) their diet. Native Americans started eating these animals and plants as well. Next, they began to rely on some of these animals, like the horse. Native Americans who lived on the Great Plains used the horse for transportation. Native Americans had never ridden a horse before 1492.

These seem like great things, but there were negative impacts as well. Europeans created large plantations to grow the crops, especially rice and sugarcane. European explorers and settlers were usually the nobility, and were used to having servants do work for them
