1) Explain the double crown:
~ Pschent. The pschent was the double crown worn by rulers in ancient Egypt. The ancient Egyptians generally referred to it as sekhemty, the Two Powerful Ones. It combined the White Hedjet Crown of Upper Egypt and the Red Deshret Crown of Lower Egypt. The Pschent represented the pharaoh's power over all of unified Egypt.
2) Why did Egyptian pharaohs build such huge monuments?
~ The Egyptians believed in the afterlife, they believed after everything died, they should be brought to the afterlife and have a great time there too, hence they built monuments to respect their people!
3) How were Egyptians protected due geography?
~ The Egyptians were protected from invaders due to their geographical features. For example, they had the Mediterranean Sea to the north along with the Nile Delta. This body of water blocks off land on the other side. If intruders were to come to Egypt, they would have to go by boat. In conclusion, Egypt had a lot of important stuff!
Answer: Both documents are based on democratic principles.
Explanation:
Both documents were created to protect the fundamental principles of democracy. In democratic systems, the principles enshrined in the Declaration of Human Rights are respected. The Charter of Rights, on the other hand, is a symbol of American democracy and freedom. Therefore, we can say that the two documents are related. Throughout history, unfortunately, many fundamental human rights have been violated. This time we will mention two post-World War II cases, the Bangladesh Genocide in 1971 and the 1995 Srebrenica Genocide.

Answer:
In my opinion the most important amendment passed during this time was the 19th amendment because it gave every citizen no matter their sex, the right to vote. Another reason I believe this amendment was important is that it seemed to specifically target women's right to vote, since white and black men could already vote at the time, and this amendment is important to our politics today.
The least important of these amendments was the 18th amendment because it prohibited the sale of intoxicating liquors. This amendment also contributed to more problems such as the establishment of speakeasies and encouraged smuggling.
Explanation:
The 16th amendment gives Congress the power to lay and collect income taxes.
The 17th amendment states the qualifications, term limits, and number of Senators each state gets (which is 2 per state). The term is 6 years, and each Senator has one vote.
The 18th amendment bans intoxicating liquor. This was during the prohibition days. However, the amendment has been overturned in recent times (of course).
The 19th amendments gives every citizen the right to vote, not matter their sex/gender.
The 20th amendment outlines the end of a President/Vice President's and Senators/Representatives' term. It also states how often Congress meet.
