These guys basically plucked from a handful of "sinful wrongdoers" that they believed were to be punished by their own god, and yet took things into their hands. They'd accuse any woman as of being a witch. A servant girl, a sick old lady married to her servant, a homeless begger. And so forth. They played the game telephone and spread lies about anyone and everyone resulting in innocents dying.

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The correct answer is B) Rome

Explanation:

In addition to Judeo-Christian Principles and Ancient Greek Philosophy, the American Founding father took inspiration from the Ancient Romans who formed the first Republic in history.

Most agree that the Roman Republic was formed around 509 BC after the end of the Roman Empire. However, the Republic was not a democracy. Practically, it was more of an oligarchy where a small number of families had voting rights.

However, it was one of the first times when the power of a 'King' or an 'Emperor' was restricted. This idea of a ruler not having unlimited power was very crucial to the American founding fathers.

Why is campaign finance a concern in the united states?
valina [46]
<span>Because we have a one-man, one-vote Constitution. So why should (for one example) Betsy Prince DeVos, who has only one vote, have an outsized influence on public policy?She has influence out of all proportion to her one vote because she’s extremely wealthy, can afford to donate to candidates she and her family favor, and she has said that they keep track of who receives their donations, and how they vote on the issues that matter to Betsy and her DeVos and Prince relatives.One thing they want is lower taxes because even though they have more money than they can spend, they’re still greedy. If the abortion that the Republicans call tax “reform” is actually passed by Congress and signed into law by President Trump, it will be because of megabucks donors like Betsy.If it is, it will benefit Betsy and her relatives, but it will not benefit the nation as a whole. No one on either side of the political spectrum should have that kind of influence.</span>
