The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Here is my article. I chose Mansa Musa, leader of the Mali Empire.
A True leader of a Great Empire.
History is full of rulers and monarchs.
However, being a leader requires more and better characteristics than only being a king.
That is the case of Mansa Musa, leader of the Mali Empire of Africa.
Mansa Musa, the great Emperor that ruled from 1312 CE to 1337 CE. He was a smart king that ruled over a big portion of land. From Senegal, Guinea, and Gambia, to Nigeria, Mauritania, and Chad.
He made his Empire be one of the most prominent of the time due to trade and his strong army. Cities such as Gao or Timbuktu became important trade centers where different merchants from distant regions also intermingled to spread the Mali culture to many places.
Mansa Musa was a very religious man. He followed the teachings of Islam and ordered the construction of impressive temples for the time, to honor and practice his religion.
Answer:
The Federalists supported the new U.S Constitution and fought to replace the Articles of Confederation because the Articles of Confederation were weak and caused disruption in the newly independent United States.
The Articles of Confederation had a weak central government (because of the fear of the British monarchy), had no national currency, and lots of other issues. This caused chaos in the US. The 13 independent states were basically allies in a "confederation" and not united. Each state had their own currency and the federal government couldn't raise taxes and had no real power.
This lead to a poorly formed United States of America that just got independence.
The Federalists wanted to fix these issues that the Articles of Confederation failed to address, but in order to do that, they supported a <em>strong</em> federal government (even if it was run by the people). Of course, the people who supported the Articles objected to this (because of the fear of tyranny). To compromise, the Federalists wrote a Bill of Rights to protect the rights of citizens and states from the new federal government.
The Federalists did solve the issue of a national currency, federal power, and taxes. Once the US Constitution was set in place, the federal government and the US was doing better than it was back with the Articles.
Fun Fact: When the representatives were meeting to make the US Constitution, they broke the law because the Articles of Confederation forbid this. You could only revise the Articles, not write a completely separate and new document.
Hoped this helped!
Big business shaped the American economy in the late 1800s and early 1900s by outproducing smaller "family business," which drove prices down. This happened in large part due to the Industrial Revolution.
