Which American document was influenced by Montesquieu's ideas about separation of powers?

History
1 answer:
Ksju [112]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

I think it's The United States Constitution

Explanation:

His ideas about separation of powers became the basis for the United States Constitution. Despite Montesquieu's belief in the principles of a democracy, he did not feel that all people were equal. Montesquieu approved of slavery.

Although he published other works as well, his most influential volume was The Spirit of the Laws (1748). The Founding Fathers, most especially James Madison, drew upon Montesquieu's theory of the separation of powers when drafting the Constitution.

Montesquieu's oft-cited contribution to political discourse is his theory on the separation of powers between the legislative, executive and judicial branches, which became the bedrock of the U.S. Constitution and the way the founders envisioned a plan that would divide and thus balance the powers of the new government.

All of the following are reasons why people wanted the U.S. government to acquire Hawaii EXCEPT which one?
kari74 [83]

The correct answer is: B) Many Americans knew it would be an ideal place to vacation.

Most Americans wanted the U.S. government to acquire Hawaii because of the sugar plantations that were on it (meaning they could buy cheaper sugar) and because it was a great place to refuel ships and have naval bases. Christians wanted the islands so they could build churches and convert people to Christianity.
