Which of the following statements would describe how the government operated in Georgia after the Revolutionary War?
Bad White [126]

The correct answer is C. The legislature held most of the power.

During the American Revolution<em> (1775 - 1783)</em> the 13th colonies fought against Great Britain in order to gain independence.

Georgia was one of the royal colonies (colonies that were governed directly by the British though a royal governor). Though Georgia was full of Loyalists who thought they were safer under the British troops protection, they joined the Revolution.<em> (Loyalists or "tories" were those who remained loyal to the king, while Patriots or "whigs" were those seeking independence). </em>

After the American Revolution United States faced a time of economic depression and political crisis. The thirteen states were ruled by a Confederation Government unified by Articles of Confederation, each state had<em> it's own government</em> and <em>were sovereign. </em>

Georgia organized a <em>Provincial Congress</em> that adopted a temporary constitution called the Rules and Regulations. Georgia's first constitution (1777)  included the separation of powers and rested upon the will of people, it had little protection of individual liberties and was written to empower common man. It was ratified in 1789.

There were created <em>three branches of government</em> <em>(legislature, executive branch and judicial branch)</em> but power was concentrated in the legislature, and gave the governor little executive power.

lakkis [162]

It was stated in the book that “The real force that ended the Soviet Union itself and most especially in the expectations and plans of the new reform leadership that came to power in 1985.” This event led to Mikhail being elected and trying to make new policies, but it didn’t work the way he wanted.

Nationalism was a threat to the Soviet Union, just like what the book said, “"That tenacious nationalism, more than any other factor, crushed their hopes for reform and destroyed the Soviet Union.” That is why I believe that communism went out with only a whimper and not a bang.
