What is the federalist papers supported the passage of the u.S. Constitution ?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Federalist Papers to help people to understand the US Constitution.

Explanation:

There are 85 essays in Federalist Papers which were printed in New York newspapers while New York State was deciding whether or not to support the U.S. Constitution. These are a series of eighty-five letters written to newspapers in 1787-1788 by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay, urging ratification of the Constitution Other newspapers outside New York also published the essays as other states were deciding to ratify the Constitution. In 1788, the papers were published together in a book called The Federalist.  As of today, the people still read the Federalist Papers to help them understand the Constitution.

Hamilton, who wrote about two-thirds of the essays has addressed the objections of opponents, who feared a tyrannical central government that would supersede states’ rights and encroach on individual liberties. All strong nationalists, the essayists argued that, most important, the proposed system would preserve the Union, now in danger of breaking apart, and empower the federal government to act firmly and coherently in the national interest. Conflicting economic and political interests would be reconciled through a representative Congress, whose legislation would be subject to presidential veto and judicial review.

How many people were involved in the russian revolution?
const2013 [10]
The 1917 Russian Revolution was not, as many people suppose, one well organised event in which Tsar Nicholas II was overthrown and Lenin and the Bolsheviks took power. It was a series of events that took place during 1917, which entailed two separate revolutions in February and October (with a great deal of political wranglings inbetween), and which eventually plunged the country into Civil War before leading to the founding of the Communist State.

What were some of the main causes of the Red Scare?
blondinia [14]

As the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States intensified in the late 1940s and early 1950s, hysteria over the perceived threat posed by Communists in the U.S. became known as the Red Scare. (Communists were often referred to as “Reds” for their allegiance to the red Soviet flag.) The Red Scare led to a range of actions that had a profound and enduring effect on U.S. government and society. Federal employees were analyzed to determine whether they were sufficiently loyal to the government, and the House Un-American Activities Committee, as well as U.S. Senator Joseph R. McCarthy, investigated allegations of subversive elements in the government and the Hollywood film industry. The climate of fear and repression linked to the Red Scare finally began to ease by the late 1950s.

Progressive reformers tried to remedy problems created by _____________ and urbanization through political action.
Lelechka [254]
The correct answer is industrialization.

During the early 20th century, industrialization was growing rapidly in America. This meant more factories, consumer goods, and workers needed to produce goods.

 Due to industrialization, many American citizens worked in factories for long hours and under unsafe working conditions. American citizens during this time work as many as 60 hours per week and worked 6 days a week. This result of industrialization caught the attention of the Progressive party members, as they wanted to make working conditions better for the average American citizen.
