<u>Answer:</u>

<em>According to texts, despotism can be defined as a form of government where in a single entity rules. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This entity has the absolute power and say. Conventionally, this entity is an individual. This sort of despotism is evident in autocracy. But history has referred to societies that limit respect and power to a group has referred to as despotic. Jefferson was very vocal about the rights and duties of the people. According to him, all men are created equal; hence they all have a shot at equal rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Governments of various nations are appointed to protect these rights. But when this same government becomes destructive, and tries to exercise absolute despotic power, it is the duty of the people to alter and abolish it. And also form a new government which has a strong foundation with the motive of safety of happiness of the people.

When Washington said that the United States would be "friendly and impartial" in regard to foreign conflicts he was, in essence,

True.

This was evidenced by the Neutrality Acts of 1930s.

The 1st Neutrality Act was the prohibition of export of "arms, ammunition, and implements of war" from the U.S. to foreign nations at war. The act requires arms manufacturer in the United States to apply for export license before they can exports arms to foreign nations.

The Neutrality Act of 1937 forbids U.S. Citizens from boarding belligerent ships. American ships were also prevented by this Act to transport arms to belligerents even if the arms were made outside the U.S. The Act also gave the President the right to bar belligerent ships from all U.S. waters.

However, there was an exception to this Act. Belligerent nations were allowed, at the discretion of the president, to acquire any items except arms from the United States, as long as they immediately pay for these items and carry them on non-American ships. This provision is called the "cash-and-carry".

The final Neutrality Act was passed on November 1939. This act lifted the arms embargo and put all trade with belligerent nations under the terms of "cash-and-carry". The ban on loans and barring of American ships transporting goods to belligerent nations still remain in effect.
