In the 11th century Pope Gregory VII excommunicated the Holy Roman Emperor, Henry IV. Their disagreement was about who had the right to appoint church officials. When he excommunicated Henry IV, Pope Gregory also told Henry's vassals (noblemen who rented the Emperor's lands) that they did not need to give their support to the Emperor anymore. Once the pope had told them that they did not owe anything to Henry, the German vassals staged a revolution. Henry was forced to give in and he had to go to Pope Gregory to apologise. The pope left Henry standing for three days in the snow before he would see him. When things returned to normal, however, Henry went to Rome and threw the pope out. Gregory was forced into exile, and he died in Salerno in 1085

3. As Jackson raises an army to back up...

Why: SC realizes that it can't hold up against a federal army, so it backs down.

4. The South Carolina convention decides to accept...

Why: Congress makes a compromise with SC by allowing it a lower tariff. Obviously this would annoy Jackson, because he didn't want to be undermined, but eventually this led to peace, for now.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not include the options for this question. However, we can say the following.

President Reagan would MOST LIKELY agree that government regulations hinder economic growth and that he is in favor of reducing the number of federal government regulations to boost the US economy.

As the conservative Republican he was, US President Ronald Reagan was against government regulations that represented a burden for the US businessman and corporate America. What President Reagan wanted to do was to promote American businesses that helped improved the American economy.
