<span>D. Builders were held legally accountable for their work.

Today we might speak of something like "criminal negligence" to describe a home builder whose work was done improperly in such a way that the house collapsed, or went up in flames because of improperly done wiring, etc.  We might not pursue the death penalty for such an offense, but we would hold the builder legally responsible also and there would be legal consequences.</span>

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Constitutional Convention and Ratification, 1787–1789

The Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia met between May and September of 1787 to address the problems of the weak central government that existed under the Articles of Confederation. The United States Constitution that emerged from the convention established a federal government with more specific powers, including those related to conducting relations with foreign governments. Under the reformed federal system, many of the responsibilities for foreign affairs fell under the authority of an executive branch, although important powers, such as treaty ratification, remained the responsibility of the legislative branch. After the necessary number of state ratifications, the Constitution came into effect in 1789 and has served as the basis of the United States Government ever since.

Tyrant is the root word of tyranny.
almond37 [142]

Answer:

<em>Etymology. The English noun tyrant appears in Middle English use, via Old French, from the 1290s. The word derives from Latin tyrannus, meaning "illegitimate ruler", and this in turn from the Greek τύραννος tyrannos "monarch, ruler of a polis"; tyrannos in its turn has a Pre-Greek origin, perhaps from Lydian.</em>
