The term "selected by the Legislature thereof" is changed to "elected by the people thereof" in the first paragraph of Article I, section 3 of the Constitution by the Seventeenth Amendment, which also provides for the election of senators. Additionally, it permits each state's governor or executive authority

The Seventeenth Amendment, which transferred the authority to elect U.S. senators from state legislatures to people directly in each state, is the first constitutional amendment to do so in a significant fashion. A statute, agreement, charter, or other legal document may be changed formally through the enactment of an amendment. The word "amend," which means "to improve," serves as its basis. These agreements may be amended to add, remove, or update certain provisions. The United States Constitution was amended in 1913 to include the Seventeenth Amendment, which allowed for the direct vote of U.S. senators by state citizens.

After the revolutionary war which branch of government and the states Make more powerful
Sedbober [7]
By the end of the revolutionary war the new government was formed as a confederation of independent states which were loosely linked to one another.

While initially seen as a strength, things eventually became difficult to manage as many states started to print their own money, make their own international trade pacts and were even building their own independent military.

This was seen as a threat to a new nation and constitutional convention was conducted in Philadelphia. 12 out of the 13 States participated in this convention with the aim of providing some kind of a homogeneity to the new country.

By the end of the convention, the constitution gave way to 3 different branches of government which still form the core of the United States:

1. The Legislative Branch

2. The Executive Branch

3. The Judicial Branch

uysha [10]

The examples of art that I feel best communicated the rulers' power to their people, were the sculptures and architecture made by the civilization of ancient Egypt. The art of Ancient Egypt represented many social, economic and religious processes that happened at that time, and among them were many representations of Pharaoh's power leadership qualities, like wisdom, stability, strenght, and power. Many sculptures and temples were monumental and magnificent. These pieces of art had a great effect on public opinion about Pharaohs. Pyramids and temples that Pharaoh's had built had a tremendous and long-term impact on citizens of Ancient Egypt since they've represented Pharaohs as godlike creatures whose wisdom, wealth and prosperity will be preserved in the afterlife. Temple of Hatshepsut, Pyramid of Djoser, Luxor Temple, Colossi of Memnon and The Great Sphinx Of Giza are the best examples of art that communicated Pharaoh's wisdom, strength, and power.
