Here are some possible results of states separating from the union:

1) Federal government has less power- If states decided to officially leave the US, they would no longer be under the rules/laws of the United States. Since this is the case, the federal government would have less control over the actions of these various states.

2) Creation of a new country- Just like during the Civil War, if states seceded they could form their own government/country with completely new laws.

Why did the crown pass the so called intolerable acts
Marrrta [24]

The Crown passed the Intolerable Acts as to punish the colonists for their disobedience

<u>Explanation: </u>

In the year 1773 the British Parliament had enacted The Intolerable Acts as a penal action against the colonial insubordination after the incident of Boston Tea Party. This was a protest to resist the British Imperialism in U.S. and was majorly concentrated in Boston and Massachusetts.

The protest was staged to oppose the burden of taxes on tea by the Crown. The protest was carried out by entering the ship which was carrying the tea for East India Company and throwing the shipped containers of tea into the Boston Sea port.

sineoko [7]

All of them are Principles of Government.

<em>Individual rights</em> are unalienable rights that are guaranteed to all citizens.

<em>Popular sovereignty</em> means that the authority of the government comes from the people that elect their representatives.

<em>Separation of Powers</em> is a separation of responsibility and limitations that are given to each branch. The system of <em>check and balances</em> is also a part of this, giving each branch a way to limit other branch and control it.

<em>Federalism</em> is a system of government that divides the power into national and state governments.

What is the name of the 1787 ordinance that set aside land for public schools and allowed religious freedom?
adell [148]
<h2>Answer: Northwest ordinance </h2>

The Northwest Ordinance was a law unanimously enacted by the Congress of the United States Confederation in 1787. This law served to establish the initial scheme under which the United States would organize its territories.

However, in principle this ordinance was enacted to officially create the Northwest Territory as the <u>first organized territory of the United States </u> by establishing new laws, among which stand out the prohibition of slavery (Article IV) and respect for the religious beliefs of the territories that made up this region, as mentioned in Article III of said ordinance.

It should be noted that years later this law became part of the expansion policy of the United States to annex territories that were geographically far from its main territory. This can be seen specifically in the year 1898, when the United States triumphed over Spain in the Hispano-American War and as part of the Treaty of Paris, Spain ceded control of the Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico to the United States.
