Answer: The answer is A is based on the representation of people through elected officials.

Explanation:

Representative government is defined as a government constituted by the elected representatives of the people who are elected into positions for the purpose of holding power and authority in trust for the people. The main features of representative government includes party system, separation of powers of the arms of government by the constitution, the concept of majority rule, while the minority will have a say, the choice of leaders through an election which usually occur every four years, The government also allows the people the right to take part in the decision making process of their country. The representative government also makes the elected leaders accountable to the electorate in the sense that if they perform better while they were elected to represent them either in the executive arm of the government or in the legislative arm of the government, they can be re- elected back into office at the end of their tenure for another term in office,but if they do not perform up to the expectation of the people then the people will use their voting power to vote them out.

The government is based on the rule of law, the administration is based solely on the respect for the rule of law and obedience to the provisions of the constitution by the elected political leaders. The constitution spelt out what will be the functions of each arms of government.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The historic experience of centuries of slavery in the US has had an important influence on the rise and activities of Black Evangelicalism. The narrative of Evangelicalism has been traditionally dominated by White Evangelicalism,  and the stories and the existence of Black Evangelicals have remained in the peripheral vision of White Evangelicalism.  The latter usually focuses on issues such as abortion rights, the war on drugs and others. For Black Evangelicals, racial issues are very important, too. This has been so even after the Civil Rights Act of 1964. In 1963, the National Black Evangelical Association was created to promote the interests of Black Evangelicalism. It´s done a lot of work. Its motto is "unity in diversity without forced conformity." But there is also Woke Evagelicalism, which has made great contributions. It is associated with the ideas and causes of the Black Lives Matter movement and its concerns about discrimination, social injustice that affects minorities, excessive use of police force against blacks and police killings of black people and other topics.

What basic characteristics of feudalism emerge from the european and japanese materials? what did lords and vassals gain from a
svet-max [94.6K]

Feudalism in Europe and events during the Muromachi period in Japan share some characteristics. During the Muromachi period in Japan, there were powerful feudal lords called Daimyos who were only subordinate to the Shogun (think of them as Commander-in-Chief) and the Japanese Emperor). Daimyos were almost independent and ruled with almost absolute power on their territories. Daimyos are the equivalent of Lords in Europe. Daimyos hired Samurai, a noble class of warriors, and paid them with rice or land, just as lords hire vassals and gave them land holdings (fiefs) in exchange for allegiance. In this obligations, Lords/Daimyos gained solders and supplies, while Vassals/Samurai gained land holdings and farms.
