The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States ('XIV Amendment') is one of the post-Civil War amendments, and includes, among others, the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause. It was proposed on June 13, 1866, and ratified on July 9, 1868.

The amendment provides a broad definition of national citizenship, which overrides the decision of Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857), who had excluded slaves and their descendants, from possessing constitutional rights. It requires states to provide equal protection before the law to all persons (not just citizens) within their jurisdictions. The importance of the Fourteenth Amendment was exemplified when it was interpreted to prohibit racial segregation in public schools in the Brown v. Case. Board of Education.

In at least 150 words, state your opinion on which system of governance you believe to be the best and why.
emmasim [6.3K]

I would not choose democratic. Although it has good stuff, it is highly corrupt. The leaders do not follow rules. The democracy wants to paint a picture of equality, but it really want full control over our lives. Look at p.e.d.o.p.h.i.l.e. island. Democrats made that. So I would choose republican. They have good rules and laws.

What was a result of Germany’s involvement in the Spanish civil war
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

The Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) was a golden opportunity for several of the contemporary powers to exert influence, test new weapons and learn lessons useful for the new great European war in the making in the 1930s. The Third Reich supported fellow fascist forces led by the rebel top military leader, Gen. Francisco Franco, who commanded the rebellion against the leftist Republican government of Madrid. Il Duce Benito Mussolini, the leader of fascit Italy, also offered his support to Spanish "franquistas."

Both Germany and Italy provided weapons, supplies, training and even military personnel to FRanco´s army. The German Luftwaffe tried his new bombers and sent pilots to assist the advance of Spanish fascist units. Tanks were supplied, too. It was German airplanes that carried out the infamous bombing of Guernica, in the Basque Country, a tragedy immortalized by Picasso´s work Guernica.

On the other side, the Soviet Union supported the Republic government with weapons, supplies and some trainers and advisers.

The first amendment protects freedoms of speech, press, assembly and the right to petition the government. This is important because it is important to protect the natural rights of a person. It protects our individual rights and maintains the democratic government. The first amendment prevents the government from interfering in private lives.
