Answer:

Because the information was carried by ships

Explanation:

President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865. At that time, there was no mass media and no information processing technology. Neither was there rapid transport, like the airplanes. The nineteenth-century press was basically composed of some printed newspapers, so that for an information to cross the ocean, it was necessary that it be transported in ships. The journeys took a long time, the fastest transport took at least a week, as was the case with the arrival of the news of Lincoln's death in England.

The articles of confederation gave a president the power to execute laws and veto legislation. True or False
masya89 [10]

The statement the articles of confederation gave a president the power to execute laws and veto legislation is false.

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

The very reason behind opting to replace the "Articles of Confederation" was that they created an imbalance of power by vesting more power in the hands of the state governments. There are no provisions provided by Articles of Confederation for an executive branch.

The President and the Federal government functioned with very little authority and were greatly under powered. The President almost functioned like a nominal head.The legislature holds the executive power under the "Articles of Confederation".
