The 2nd Amendment was added to the constitution to protect American citizens' right to keep and bear arms.

The Second Amendment (December 1791) is one of 10 amendments that are part of the Bill of Rights, it states the following:

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Even though the statute aimed to support the rights of self-defense or defense of the state and resistance to oppression in more hostile times, it is still debated nowadays, regarding whether it protects a private right of individuals or militia organizations to keep and bear arms.

The person who had a greater impact on industrial development in the U.S., was Samuel Slater (Who was born in England in June 9, 1768 and died in April 21, 1835), because He was a pioneer in the American Industrial Development that took the British textile technology and the machinery designs and brought them to the United States, and with that industrial system and the machines, he created the first textile factories of North america, and began a business in that industry with his sons. And thanks to that, it was generated an increase and an enhance in the U.S. industrial development, which caused that U.S became in one of the most industrialized nation. So for that reason, Samuel Slater was known as the "Father of the American Factory System".

But by other side, although Eli Whitney contributed to the U.S. Industrial Revolution with the invention of the cotton gin, however, he wasn't founded the pillars of the Industrial Development of the U.S., as Samuel Slater did it.

Description of mummification

devlian [24]

Mummificatiom was the process into how a pharaoh was buried for death. They took out his organs and put then into some sort of vases which they then buried with him and his treasures or wealth so he can use them in the "afterlife". They placed him in a sarcophagus all wrapped in a fabric, not sure if it was linen though.

But if you want a more descriptive description then go to Google, those were just in my own words and what I remeber.
