Answer:

James Madison ended up submitting 12 amendments but only 10 of them were approved. They became the United States Bill of Rights.

Explanation:

James Madison's (1751-1836) amendments became the Bill of Rights that was ratified in 1791.

These amendments were made in order to achieve ratification of the U.S. Constitution. In 1787-8 there were many debates where Anti-Federalists opposed to the Constitution as it were because they thought it gave too much power to the government and didn't protect individual rights and liberties.

Thus Madison started drafting these amendments to meet these demands and to get the Constitution ratified. Constitution was ratified in 1788 and the Bill of Rights in 1791.

anygoal [31]

Answer:

In April 1775, the "shots heard around the world" were fired at Lexington and Concord. The shots were the result of colonial tension toward the acts passed by the British government. The colonial militia was victorious at Lexington and Concord. Delegates to the Second Continental Congress assembled in Philadelphia three weeks after the battles at Lexington and Concord. The Congress selected John Hancock as its president. Hancock was one of the richest colonists. He used his wealth to fund the Sons of Liberty in his home state of Massachusetts. The Congress also selected George Washington as the commander of the Continental Army. In an attempt to avoid a full-scale war, the Congress sent King George the Olive Branch Petition. In it, the colonists asked the King to protect their rights and told the King that they wanted peace. King George rejected their petition and began preparing for war.
