Family: did everything they could to defend marriage and family values

The way of life in New England was very different to the one the colonists established in America. Most of the people who initially settled the colonies of New England were Puritans who were escaping religious persecution in England. Their lives, therefore, revolved around church to a great extent. Church was the centre of community life, while family was the focus of the home. Moreover, the town provided unity to the community.

However, this way of life eventually ran into problems as well. The population of New England began to increase, and this led to many problems. The religious diversity of the region increased, and with this, conflict did as well. Moreover, the large population required stricter government, and more tolerance towards diversity. These changes threatened the social order that had been established in New England.

The first article of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen says, " . "
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (French: La Déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen) was adopted on August 26, 1789 by the National Constituent Assembly (Assemblée Nationale Constituante) and is one of the very fundamental documents of the French Revolution that also greatly impacted the revolutionary movement in St. Domingue. The declaration, although seemingly covering all persons, was not applied to slaves or free people of color in the French colonies, this was driving force behind some of the revolts leading up to the Haitian Revolution.

The Declaration was drafted by the Marquis de Lafayette and was adopted by the National Assembly, it was intended as part of a transition from an absolute to a constitutional monarchy. Many of the principles laid down in the declaration directly oppose the institutions and usages of the ancien régime of pre-revolutionary France. In the event, France soon became a Republic, but this document remained fundamental.

The principles set forth in the declaration come from the philosophical and political principles of the Age of Enlightenment, such as individualism, the social contract as theorised by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and the separation of powers espoused by the baron de Montesquieu.

What is the Mandate of Heaven?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:Under the Zhou Dynasty, China moved away from worship of Shangdi (“Celestial Lord”) in favor of worship of Tian (“heaven”), and they created the Mandate of Heaven. According to this idea, there could be only one legitimate ruler of China at a time, and this ruler reigned as the “Son of Heaven” with the approval of the gods. If a king ruled unfairly he could lose this approval, which would result in his downfall. Overthrow, natural disasters, and famine were taken as a sign that the ruler had lost the Mandate of Heaven.The Mandate of Heaven did not require a ruler to be of noble birth, and had no time limitations. Instead, rulers were expected to be good and just in order to keep the Mandate. The Zhou claimed that their rule was justified by the Mandate of Heaven. In other words, the Zhou believed that the Shang kings had become immoral with their excessive drinking, luxuriant living, and cruelty, and so had lost their mandate. The gods’ blessing was given instead to the new ruler under the Zhou Dynasty, which would rule China for the next 800 years.The need for the Zhou to create a history of a unified China is also why some scholars think the Xia Dynasty may have been an invention of the Zhou. The Zhou needed to erase the various small states of prehistoric China from history, and replace them with the monocratic Xia Dynasty in order for their Mandate of Heaven to seem valid (i.e., to support the claim that there always would be, and always had been, only one ruler of China).The Zhou ruled until 256 BCE, when the state of Qin captured Chengzhou. However, the Mandate of Heaven philosophy carried on throughout ancient China.
