The correct answer is D) It prevented monarchs from having opponents arrested.

<em>The Habeas Corpus Act of 1679 limited the power of the monarchy in that it prevented monarchs from having opponents arrested.</em>

The British Parliament enacted the  Habeas Corpus Act of 1679 to ensure that no person could be imprisoned unlawfully. Habeas Corpus was an expression of the Medieval Times that was used when the authority demanded the presence of an individual in court. Years later the term changed its meaning and was applied to fight against unjust or arbitrary detention by the king or the government. So it is true that The Habeas Corpus Act of 1679 limited the power of the monarchy in that it prevented monarchs from having opponents arrested.

atroni [7]

Answer: So that the Cherokee could march on with pride.

Explanation:

Chief John Ross was the leader of the Cherokee at a time when the U.S. were looking for ways to evict them from territory that white settlers wanted especially in Georgia.

After a subset of Cherokee leaders signed the Treaty of New Echota with the U.S. government against the wishes and knowledge of majority of the tribe, the U.S. sent General Winfield Scott to remove the Cherokee.

John Ross then convinced General Scott to allow the Cherokee to continue without the US army so to march on with pride.
