The constitution of the United states was signed on September 17th, 1787, in Philadelphia. This documents establishes America's national government and fundamental laws.

In the United States Constitution, the ninth amendment, or IX amendment, reads the following statement: "The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people".

This amendment is related to the compromise that was reached in the Virginia Ratifying Convention. It basically means that any amendments that limit the power of the Congress, shouldn't be a reason to expand or extend their power. James Madison was the person who introduced this amendment and explained he wrote it as a cautionary measure, to put limitations to the power of the government.

The compromise reached in the Virginia Ratifying Convention, was the result of a debate between a group of people called the <u>Anti-Federalists</u> and another group of people called the <u>Federalists</u>. They disagreed about if there should or should not be a Bill of Rights in the Constitution. The Anti-federalists wanted  the Bill of Rights, but the Federalists worried that putting the Bill of Rights in the Constitution would give power to the government. They finally reached an agreement which is the IX Amendment.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

gathering food instead of cultivating the land for crops

Explanation:

Among the following options that would be least likely to damage an ecosystem is "gathering food instead of cultivating the land for crops."

The gathering of food instead of cultivating the land for crops will not or hardly affect the ecosystem because there is the uprooting of forests or bushes and soils, which are the natural habitats of plants and animals in the ecosystem.

However, founding a new city and building houses there; building a dam to generate electricity; and raising a type of livestock in a region where it is not native will all involve the excavation of soils and clearing of bushes which are natural habitats of plants and animals, thereby affecting the ecosystem.

What brought about the concept of the Anglo-Saxon race?
salantis [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The increase in immigrants from southern and eastern Europe brought about the concept of the Anglo-Saxon race.

Explanation:

Initially, the United States was populated by migrants from the British Isles, especially England, Scotland and, to a lesser extent, Ireland. These were migrants who came to America in search of greater civil and religious freedoms, since in the British monarchy of the time, religion was a cause of social and political conflicts that limited the well-being of a large percentage of the society of the time. Thus, for example, the Puritans, the Quakers and many other people outside the Anglican Church began to arrive in the colonies, giving the colonies a British predominance over other ethnic groups.

Now, with the passage of time, new migratory waves began to arrive in America. Thus, Italians, French, Germans, Slavs, Russians, etc., began to be part of American society and to bring with them their own culture, religion and social values. These differed greatly from traditional British values ​​(especially in religion), with which from the social and political establishment of the early twentieth century began to try to define and differentiate the "Anglo-Saxon race" over other immigrants European, valuing with greater emphasis the British cultural components than those of the other European countries.
