There's multiple reasons why direct democracy was working in Athens and not in the United States. One of those reasons is the size of the population. Athens was a city-state, thus it was very small with very small population, so direct democracy was possible in practice. The United States are enormous, and the population is very big, which makes it very impractical for direct democracy to be practiced. Another reason is that Athens was not ruled by political parties, but a council, so it was much more united, while the United States have a big division, easily seen by region, where there's two contrasting political parties and supporters, which would make a chaos if direct democracy is implemented.

oee [108]

Question: What goals did republican policy makers, ex-confederates, and freed-people pursue during reconstruction? And, to what degree did each succeed?

Answer:    

<u><em>Radical republicans:</em></u> they demanded harsher measures in the south, more protections for the Freedmen, and more guarantees that Confederate nationalism was completely eliminated.

<em><u>Ex- confederates: </u></em>Their goal was to give amnesty to former Confederates.

<u><em>Freed-people:</em></u> They expected the Reconstruction Era to establish new governments in the former Confederacy and to bring freedmen (freed-people) into society as voting citizens.

In 1866, radical republicans supported the civil rights act, which granted citizenship and equal protection to blacks. The Reconstruction act of 1867 divided the south into 5 districts. Additionally, congressional radical reconstruction ordered states to provide suffrage for blacks and deny it to ex-confederates.
