Tasya [4]3 years ago

Answer:  A) presented as evidence for the king's breaking of the social contract.

Explanation:

In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson provided a list of "facts to be submitted to a candid world" to demonstrate that the British king had been seeking to establish "an absolute Tyranny over these States" (the colonial states which were declaring their independence).  

Jefferson's list included items such as:

  • The king refused to assent to laws that were wholesome and necessary for the public good.
  • The king had forbidden colonial governors to enact laws or implement laws without his assent (which, as the prior point noted, he was in no hurry to give).
  • The king forced people to give up their rights to legislative assembly or forced legislative bodies to meet in difficult places that imposed hardships on them.
  • The king dissolved legislative assemblies and then refused for a long time to have other assemblies elected.
  • The king obstructed justice in the colonies and made judges dependent on his will alone for their salaries and their tenure in office.
  • The king kept standing armies in place in the colonies in peacetime, without the consent of the colonial legislatures.
  • The king imposed taxes without the colonists' consent.

These and additional items listed in the Declaration were meant to support the colonies' position that tyranny was standard operating procedure by the British monarchy, and therefore revolution was justified.  This was based on the idea of the social contract, that a government's authority to govern came from the people, and if the government did not serve the people properly, it could be replaced.

Which two statements are true about the members of the Creek tribe after the Civil War?
Neporo4naja [7]

These two statements are true about the Creek Tribe after the Civil War:  

1)They focused on rebuilding and reestablishing schools and churches.

2)They wrote a new constitution to attempt to bring peace and unity to the tribe.

The Civil War was disastrous for the Creek Nation (also known as the Muscogee people), even though the majority of the tribe wished to be neutral. The first three battles of the war in Indian Territory happened when Confederate forces attacked a large and neutral band led by Opothle Yahola. Eventually, hundreds of Creek men fought on both the Union and Confederate sides. After the war ended, the reconstruction treaty of 1866 required the cession of approximately half of the Muscogee land , almost 3.2 million acres.

The Creek nation began a period of regeneration after the war. Public buildings, schools and churches were built, including the Creek National Capital building (1867) in Okmulgee, now the Creek Council House Museum, included in the National Register of Historic Places.In 1867, the Muscogee people adopted a written constitution, which provided for a Principal Chief and a Second Chief, a judicial branch, and two legislative chambers composed of a House of Kings (similar to the Senate) and a House of Warriors (similar to the House of Representatives.) Representation in both houses of this Legislative assembly was determined by each tribal town. A new capitol city was established the same year at Okmulgee. In 1878 the tribal government build a native stone Council House. Today, its serves as the Council House Museum in the center of the modern city of Okmulgee.
