omeli [17]
The correct answer is "the offer came from the "people"".

He believed that the parliament does not have the jurisdiction in this case and that it can't proclaim him to be the emperor of all German people without the actual people since he believed that they didn't represent them properly and didn't care about them.

What were the advantages of the five -year plans of china and Russia?what are the disadvantages?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:The Pentagon unveiled its National Defense Strategy, a document that focuses on the "eroding" U.S. military advantage with regard to Russia and China, and will likely influence future spending on weapons systems and other military hardware.

"The department needs to focus on Russia and China," said Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Strategy and Force Development Elbridge Colby, during a question and answer session with reporters at the Pentagon. "The erosion of our military advantage is the problem."

Colby said the strategy in no way diminishes the U.S. focus on terrorism, which he termed "a very serious threat."

But the document states, "Inter-state strategic competition, not terrorism, is now the primary concern in U.S. national security."

The new Pentagon strategy is in contrast to the National Security Strategy outlined last month with a statement from President Trump that mentioned neither Russia nor China, but instead focused elsewhere.  

"We are rallying the world against the rogue regime in North Korea," Trump said in his statement, "and confronting the danger posed by the dictatorship in Iran, which those determined to pursue a flawed nuclear deal had neglected. We have renewed our friendships in the Middle East and partnered with regional leaders to help drive out terrorists and extremists, cut off their financing, and discredit their wicked ideology. We crushed Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) terrorists on the battlefields of Syria and Iraq, and will continue pursuing them until they are destroyed. America's allies are now contributing more to our common defense, strengthening even our strongest alliances. We have also continued to make clear that the United States will no longer tolerate economic aggression or unfair trading practices."

In this unit, you learned about the development of the U.S. government, including the basic ideals on which the nation was found
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

1. The US government is based on ideas of limited government, including natural rights, popular sovereignty, republicanism, and social contract. Limited government is the belief that the government should have certain restrictions in order to protect the individual rights and civil liberties of citizens.

2.  The Constitution diluted power even more by creating a federal form of government. In this way power and authority would be shared between central, state and local governments.

3.  I see these ideas reflected in the nation today because they still are applied to the constitution.

4. Yes I do think that the government lives up to the democratic ideas supported by the founders because democracy is still in the U.S to this day.

Hope this helps
