Answer: c. implementing modernizing reforms that helped his country withstand Western incursions.

Explanation:

Chulalongkorn was King of Siam (now Thailand) from October 1, 1868 until his death on October 23, 1910, after which he was called Rama V. He was the fifth king of the Chakri dynasty of Thailand and is considered one of the greatest sovereigns this country has had for its efforts to modernize it to prevent it from becoming a European colony, as it had happened with neighboring countries.

As an example of his achievements, highlights the fact that he hired foreign experts to teach Thai people the necessary knowledge to deal with the different areas of government, education and life style of the new Westernized model he was implementing. However, <u>he was careful to hire professionals of different nationalities for each task so that no country would achieve enough power to challenge his authority and try to colonize the kingdom.</u>

andriy [413]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no words, phrases, or references attached, we can do research and answer the following.

"Four score and seven years ago our father brought forth on this continent, a new nation..." was the beginning of a speech that referred to the American Revolution (1776), which was the Independence war when the Continental Army led by General George Washington defeated the British troops.

"...conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to proposition that all men are created equal." This upheld the idea (expressed in the Declaration of Independence) of liberty and equality for ALL. The Declaration of Independence was promulgated on July 4, 1776.

"Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure." This refers to the idea that the American Civil War was a test of democracy.

"We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live." This refers to the purpose of the ceremony that was held on November 18, 1863. It was known as the Gettysburg address.

"...that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion..." This refers to Lincoln's idea that the dead inspire the living.

"...and that government of the people, by the people, for the people..." This reaffirmed the idea of government by consent of the people, as it was expressed in the Constitution of the United States.

When the constitution was created which branch was created to enforce laws
Taya2010 [7]

Answer: Executive

Explanation:

The Constitution divides Federal power into three (3) branches which are: the Executive, the Legislature and the Judiciary.

The Legislature is given the duty of making laws that are in line with the Constitution and the Judiciary is given the duty of interpreting the Constitution to ensure that the actions of the Executive and the Legislature do not violate it (Constitution).

The Executive is then given the duty of enforcing the laws passed by the Legislature as well as the Constitution. They do this through the various departments under the President that form part of the President's cabinet.

This ensures that no single branch has absolute power in the management of the nation's affairs.
