The correct answer is Buddhas of Bamiyan. They were mined by the Taliban government because they were declared to be idols and this went against iconoclasm, which was about preventing depiction of religious people as idols. They stated that the statues were getting foreign aid while the people were starving and that it was a travesty.

Explain how James Madison and Thomas Jefferson illustrated the continued American spirit of rebellion after independence and the
satela [25.4K]

Jefferson and Madison would create the Democratic-Republican political party to be a voice for the common man against the elite Federalist party. The two men fought laws and policies enacted by Washington and Adams when they believed they violated the Constitution and the rights established by the Bill of Rights.

One example of this was Jefferson's writing of the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions in regard to the Whiskey Tax. Though written anonymously, he suggest the states (the people) were allowed to nullify, or ignore, federal laws that the people did not agree with. He suggest it was in the rights of the people to refuse to pay the whiskey tax.

Jefferson and Madison were both outspoken about their disagreement with the passage of the Alien and Sedition Acts by John Adams. Jefferson would overturn the acts after becoming the third president of the US. Madison also stood against John Adams in regard to the "midnight-appointments" which was an expansion of the federal court system. Madison refused to issue the confirmations of the judges causing one to take Madison to court in the famous case, Marbury v. Madison.

For an example, Germany was in an alliance with Hungary and when they declared war against Serbia, Germany had to fight with them, and so on, finally creating World War 1. Within weeks, Germany declared war with other countries that declared war with others, creating a "domino effect" which just means that most countries just started fighting with one another, either because they declared war with them or because their allies did.
