1 answer:

8 0

Basically the United States aquired Guam and Puerto Rico from Spain and Cuba gained independence(under a heavy US sphere of influence, basically a puppet state). America also agreed to pay spain for these territories. It's important to note the US also annexed the Phillipines from Spain though America would lose control of the Islands and eventually grant the Phillipines independence in the mid 1900s

Montesquieu came up with separation of power - how did james madison use his theory to create our government structure

lys-0071 [83]

Madison understood that power can corrupt as seen with the kings of their time. So Madison set up the form of government that relies on separate branches of government that operates under checks and balances. This means that no one branch can get too powerful and overrule the other branches. We see this in modern government in the legislative, executive and judicial branches. Madison improved upon the idea that power cannot be held by one man or a few people.
