The intolerable acts were a direct cause of the revolutionary war
It was Germany (into Eastern and Western Germany)
I think it’s direct democracy!
Step 1: An idea is introduced in Congress, it becomes a bill.
Step 2: Committees within Congress research, review, and approve.
Step 3: The bill is introduced to the House or Senate floors for all to review and consider.
Step 4: If approved by both the House and Senate, the bill moves to the President.
Step 5: President approves the bill and it becomes law.
Many great European powers had been exploiting China's weak economic system to enforce their own trade regulations for years. The United States simply wanted to join the fray, so the Open Door notes were sent to the European powers basically stating, "Hey, you guys can't own all of China, make sure that all countries get to trade equally with them."
Just as a side note, the Open Door policy with China was extremely hypocritical for the United States, as the Monroe Doctrine of 1823 basically stated that none of the European powers could interfere with the Western Hemisphere... While no one was allowed to touch the Americas, the United States was apparently allowed to mess with the rest of the world.
