Accurate information regarding the distribution and limitation of powers within the

History

Greeley [361]3 years ago

<span>There are several key components that contribute to making the balance of power successful in the United States government. Perhaps the most important is the division of power among three branches: the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch. These various entities have specific jobs to do but must work in conjunction with each other. If they were allowed to work independently, there would be no check and balance system for our laws.
       
Additionally, in order for a bill to pass and become law, it must be first approved by the House of Representatives, then it must pass through the U.S. Senate. These two groups act as a screening process to ensure the bills are going to be beneficial to the majority of people in the country.

Another limitation of power is in the presidential veto. The president can veto a bill that's been passed by the House and Senate if he or she feels it would be in the best interest of the country and its peoples.
       
A third critical component involving limitation of power is in the requirement of the president to serve no more than two terms. This is called term limits and allows for healthy turnover, fresh ideas, and eliminates the possibility of what could be conceived as a dictatorship.</span>

How did blacks get their freedom before the 13th amendment?.
natulia [17]

Answer:

The 13th Amendment.

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Explanation: The 13th amendment stated that the only time American citizens could be enslaved was for punishment for a crime. This law had a particularly adverse effect on African Americans, as they were often wrongfully criminalized and incarcerated at a much higher rate. So in essence, they often remained slaves when they were incarcerated. Before the Civil War slave codes were implemented in the south to restrict the movement of slaves. These laws (for example) stopped slaves from gathering together in groups at churches, from bearing arms and from reading and writing. The idea was to perpetuate and maintain the system of slavery. After the war was over southerners passed Black Codes, which were laws that greatly restricted the lives of free Blacks. After slaves were free, southerners were upset and tried to put Black people back into a position that was as close to slavery as possible. The Black Codes would eventually evolve into Jim Crow laws, which was a system of laws that criminalized Blackness and insured they would be incarcerated and lose their freedom for the most minor of offenses. The primary thing Jim Crow laws did was enforce a system of legal segregation all throughout the south for many years. Its legacy still has a great impact on the US today.

<em>Why did King George III strictly enforce the Navigation Acts?</em>

A) Britain wanted to expand trade and needed more resources from the colonies..

<em>Britain was losing money in trade with the colonies. Britain wanted to expand trade and needed more resources from the colonies. Britain wanted the colonies to pay for part of the cost of the French and Indian War. George II wanted to show the colonies his power.</em><em>European nations during the 17th- and 18th-centuries believed in the economic theory of mercantilism. In a mercantilist system, there is believed to be a limited amount of wealth in the world. One nation's gain was another's loss. Thus, monarchs sought to tightly control trade within their colonies.</em>
