"What aspect of American democracy first emerged because of disparities in size between the colonies that became the United States?"

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you did not include options, we can say the following.

The aspect of American democracy that first emerged because of disparities in size between the colonies that became the United States was the Connecticut Compromise.

We are talking about the difficult moment in the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Federalists and Antifederalists were discussing their own postures, delegates from the colonies tried to defend their interests, and some plans such as the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan confronted the delegates.

After so much discussion, the Connecticut Compromise, also known as the Great Compromise of 1787 was the agreement between small states and large states that established the representation in Congress.

How did the geography of Yorktown cause the British to lose the battle and eventually the war?

Answers

Answer: When British General Lord Charles Cornwallis and his army surrendered to General George Washington’s American force and its French allies at the Battle of Yorktown on October 19, 1781, it was more than just military win. The outcome in Yorktown, Virginia marked the conclusion of the last major battle of the American Revolution and the start of a new nation's independence. It also cemented Washington’s reputation as a great leader and eventual election as first president of the United States. In the summer of 1780, 5,500 French troops, with Comte de Rochambeau at the helm, landed in Newport, Rhode Island to aid the Americans. At the time, British forces were fighting on two fronts, with General Henry Clinton occupying New York City, and Cornwallis, who had already captured Charleston and Savannah, South Carolina, heading up operations in the south. With the Continental Army positioned in New York, Washington and Rochambeau teamed to plan a timed attack on Clinton with the arrival of more French forces. When they found the French fleet was instead sailing to the Chesapeake Bay, Washington concocted a new plan. By mid-September 1781, Washington and Rochambeau arrived in Williamsburg, Virginia, 13 miles from the tobacco port of Yorktown, where Cornwallis’s men had built a defense of 10 small forts (a.k.a. redoubts) with artillery batteries and connecting trenches. In response, Cornwallis asked Clinton for aid, and the general promised him a fleet of 5,000 British soldiers would set sail from New York to Yorktown.

With a small force left in New York, about 2,500 Americans and 4,000 French soldiers—facing some 8,000 British troops—began digging their own trenches 800 yards from the Brits and started a nearly week-long artillery assault on the enemy on October 9.

Describe the Roman Government? Are there similarities between our government and theirs?

Answers

Answer:

Similarities between the Roman Republic and U.S. government - both feature executive and legislative branches

- both systems have checks and balances embedded

- the head executives can be removed from power by legislators

- the head executives have military responsibilities

- both lead executives have veto power

- the executives are charged with enforcing the laws

- the legislative bodies make laws and control the budgets

- written law codes exist in both societies

- political divisions exist in both (Rome = patricians vs. plebeians / U.S. = citizens of a more liberal persuasion vs. citizens of a more conservative persuasion)

- wealthy people are more likely to get elected

- both place the authority of the state above that of the individual

Differences between the Roman Republic and U.S. government

- Roman system did not have a separate judicial branch

- Roman consuls (2 people) served 1-year terms / U.S. presidents (1 person) serve 4-year terms

- Rome had a provision for a dictator to take over / the U.S. does not

- Roman consuls had religious duties / the U.S. president does not

- Romans continued to own slaves / Americans do not

- Roman senators served for life / American senators have 6-year terms

- Roman women were not allowed to participate in politics / American women are allowed

- Rome had rigid social classes / the U.S. has more flexible social classes

What does the government need to issue a warrant

Answers

Answer:

A search warrant is a warrant issued by the competent authority authorizing a police officer to search a specified place for evidence even without the occupant’s consent.

To obtain a warrant, law enforcement officers must show that there is probable cause to believe a search is justified. Officers must support this showing with sworn statements (affidavits), and must describe in particularity the place they will search and the items they will seize.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

An arrest warrant is a warrant issued by a judge or magistrate on behalf of the state, which authorizes the arrest and detention of an individual, or the search and seizure of an individual's property.

A search warrant is a legal authorization from the court for police to search a specific location (or locations) for specific evidence. A search warrant overrides your right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures. The search warrant makes the search reasonable. Police who ask for a search warrant must persuade the judge that a crime has been committed and evidence relevant to that crime is likely to be found in the location(s) listed on the search warrant.

Explanation:

A warrant is a legal document that is issued by a judge or grand jury. The warrant authorizes law enforcement to engage in some activity that would otherwise violate your Constitutional rights. An arrest warrant authorizes police to detain you and keep you in custody for a period of time. A search warrant authorizes police to search a specific location for specific evidence. Police do not always have to have a warrant to place you under arrest or search you.

Police are generally required to used search warrants within 10 days of the date they are issued. Unless exigent circumstances exist, a search warrant must be executed between 7am and 10pm. If police reasonably believe and can show that evidence may be destroyed or a suspect may try to run a judge may authorize a search warrant to be executed at night.

2. Cite Evidence The Petition of Right challenged

the traditional idea of the divine right of kings.

Give at least one specific example that supports

this statement, and explain how its underlying

message weakened the divine right theory.

Answers

Answer:

The Petition of Right challenged the idea of Divine Right of Kings by restricting the authorities of Kings and Queens and giving more power to the Parliament.

Explanation:

The Petition of Rights is a document enacted in the Constitution on 7th June, 1628, by the Parilament overruling the authorities of the King Charles I. Charles I was the proponent of Divine Rule, which means that  Kings and Queens were appointed by God to rule over His people and thus they are not answerable to anyone for their actions.

Using power of Divine Rule, Charles I began to impose taxes on the people and levied forced loans, stating that the loan is to the Crown. To impede this authority of the King, members of the Parliament formulated the Petition of Right.

The Petition of Right confronted the idea of Divine Rule by restricting the authority of the King and reclaiming thhe rights of the Parliament and citizens.

One of the right restricted from the king was his imposition of taxes. The Petition of Rights stated that no person shall pay taxes to the king without Parliament's approval. The underlying message of this restriction weakened the Divine Right as now King had to ask Parliament to pass any loan and have to be answerable to Parliament.

'no person should be compelled to  make any loans to the king against his will, because such loans were against reason and the franchise of the land; and  by other laws of this realm it is provided, that none should be charged by any charge or imposition called a  benevolence, nor by such like charge; by which statutes before mentioned, and other the good laws and statutes of this  realm, your subjects have inherited this freedom, that they should not be compelled to contribute to any tax, tallage,  aid, or other like charge not set by common consent, in parliament.'
