The fact that there was no national military was a weakness in which area of government? legislative judicial administrative eco
Anna35 [415]

The correct answer is legislative.

The military falls under the jurisdiction of the legislative portion of the government because Congress (which is the legislative branch) has the ability to declare war. Since Congress has the ability to declare war, not having a military would greatly affect their ability to protect the US. This was one of several problems within the Articles of Confederation. The Articles of Confederation was America's first constitution and was eventually replaced after less than a decade by the US Constitution (still in use today).

How did Tokugawa rule affect the common people of Japan
Lapatulllka [165]
Lacked status and poor conditions--Tokugawa Japan was a feudal system where commoners were unable to work up or gain status in the country. 

Tokugawa Japan was a period of military rule in Japan where land owners and samurai had power and control in the country. Peasants and merchants were taxed heavily and were unable to work up in the system. 

Merchants were particularly attacked during the Tokugawa rule as they represented western culture and influence. The shogun isolated Japan and close the borders so western influence could not change the Japanese system. This would stay this way until the 1800s when Japan would bring in a new government which would be merchant-focused.

Which statement best describes the removal of the Cherokee people from Georgia in the 1830s?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

1. A small group of Cherokees agreed to sell their territory, but most were forcibly removed by the government.

Explanation:

The Cherokee removal, also more famously known as the "Trail of Tears" was the historical event in American history when the Cherokee Indians were forcibly removed from their lands by the government. This removal was a result of the growing cotton business and also the attempt by the government to seize Indian lands and make them the property of the federal government.

This removal became one of the most famous removal processes in American history. The removal was initially objected to by everyone in the Cherokee nation. But under the influence of Major Ridge, John Ridge, and Elias Boudinot, a treaty was signed that allowed the possession of lands by the federal government. This party, also known as "the Ridge Party" consisted of a group of Indians who had accepted the 'compensation' amount paid by the government in exchange for their lands and property. Meanwhile, the rest of the Cherokee Indians under their chief John Ross continued to object but were eventually driven out by force to move to the west.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
