Answer:

Athens was a direct democracy in which citizens voted on laws themselves. In the United States, laws are not voted by citizens, but by Congress.

Explanation:

Athenian democracy emerged as a way of guaranteeing a certain political participation of the citizens and so that the euphrates were not the only ones to make decisions regarding the public thing. This system brought guarantees, but also uncertainties. The solution found was to promote a strategy that could ward off those who posed a threat to Athenian unity.

Unlike the direct democracy that existed in Athens, the United States has an indirect democracy, where the population uses the vote to choose their political representatives who will be responsible for the political decisions of the country. In this way, citizens would be assured of their rights by politicians who would pledge to meet the wishes of their constituents.

PLEASE HELP <br> What are some of the things Anne and the others miss while in hiding?
Sav [38]
In hiding, I'd say first of all she missed her friends, her cat, and normal life. She also missed "riding her bike, hearing the birds sing, getting a fresh breath of air, and laughing out loud with her friends".

Why was westward expansion such an important issue in the election of 1844?
timofeeve [1]
<span>It is thought to have been the reason why Polk won the election over Clay. Polk was a slave owner and was in favor of annexing Texas which was a slave state already, thus growing the slavery movement. Clay was initially against annexing Texas when Van Buren was initially running against him. When Polk ended up winning the nomination for the Democratic party over Van Buren, Clay then changed his mind on the topic of the annexation to support it, as Polk had. This made him appear wishy-washy and led to be Polk becoming President.</span>
