Answer:
Richard Nixon
Explanation:
Only president to ever resign, Nixon resigned as a result of the Watergate scandal.
After the Revolutionary War, the colonists created an executive branch with constitutional limits in order to prevent tyranny from the government and let the states still have power.
The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution for the United States, it was very weak and gave the national government little to no power. The government could barely create and enforce laws, regulate trade, draft soldiers, or tax the people.
Some people preferred this, as they felt like the power should be in the hands of the people and were scared of tyranny, as they had just broken away from British rule during the Revolutionary War. Still, some people wanted to create a stronger government and felt like the Articles of Confederation were doing more harm than good.
During the Constitutional Convention of 1787, the Articles of Confederation ended up getting scrapped and the United States Constitution was created instead. This created three branches of government, one of them being the executive branch, where the president is. Many people feared that the president would become too powerful, so they made each branch have constitutional limits. These are called separation of powers and checks and balances, each branch is powerful in its own ways and holds certain powers over others to keep each other in check.
Answer:
Factories, Mines, and Child Labor
The Industrial Revolution created a great deal of change in society.
One major change was the shift from work being done at home by
hand in cottage industries to work being done in factories. There
were harsh and unsafe working conditions in these early factories.
The machines posed a significant threat to workers’ lives. Even more
deadly was work performed in coal mines. Owners of mines and
factories had considerable control over the lives of laborers who
worked long hours for low pay. An average worker would work 14
hours a day, six days a week. Fearful of losing their jobs, workers
would typically not complain about the horrible conditions and low
pay. Owners realized that they could pay women and children less
than men. Child labor increased because it kept the costs of
production low and the profits high. As a result, the working class
lived in poverty, while the bosses who made up the middle class
grew wealthy.
