The democratized India has forever banned the use of the caste system used by members of the Hindu religion. When the system was allowed, the Dalits were marginalized, had no rights guaranteed and could only perform works related to feces of the people of higher castes .With the end of the caste system, the Dalits should be considered ordinary citizens with equal rights and duties to the rest of the population.

The creation of the Atrocities Prevention Act in 1995 protected the Dalits from discriminating against superior castes. Anyone who disobeys this law would be automatically arrested without bail.

About Western hamisphere and Columbus
Dvinal [7]
In telling the history of the United States and also of the nations of the Western Hemisphere in general, historians have wrestled with the problem of what to call the hemisphere's first inhabitants. Under the mistaken impression he had reached the “Indies,” explorer Christopher Columbus called the people he met “Indians.” This was an error in identification that has persisted for more than five hundred years, for the inhabitants of North and South America had no collective name by which they called themselves.

Historians, anthropologists, and political activists have offered various names, none fully satisfactory. Anthropologists have used “aborigine,” but the term suggests a primitive level of existence inconsistent with the cultural level of many tribes. Another term, “Amerindian,” which combines Columbus's error with the name of another Italian explorer, Amerigo Vespucci (whose name was the source of “America”), lacks any historical context. Since the 1960s, “Native American” has come into popular favor, though some activists prefer “American Indian.” In the absence of a truly representative term, descriptive references such as “native peoples” or “indigenous peoples,” though vague, avoid European influence. In recent years, some argument has developed over whether to refer to tribes in the singular or plural—Apache or Apaches—with supporters on both sides demanding political correctness.

guapka [62]

The answer is: <u>The Organic Laws of Oregon.</u>

They were two sets of legislation made by a group of American settlers based in the Willamette Valley.

The laws created a structure for the white government in the Oregon Country. Later, in May 1843, a vote was made and, by majority, was decided to create what eventually was called the Provisional Government of Oregon.
