Do leaders have to follow the same rules as everyone in a direct democracy

History
1 answer:
Sholpan [36]3 years ago
5 0

Although direct democracy had been used in some of the colonies, the framers of the Constitution granted voters no legislative or executive powers, because they feared the masses would make poor decisions and be susceptible to whims. During the Progressive Era, however, governments began granting citizens more direct political power. States that formed and joined the United States after the Civil War often assigned their citizens some methods of directly implementing laws or removing corrupt politicians. Citizens now use these powers at the ballot to change laws and direct public policy in their states.

How did the involvement with Europeans change how Americans Indians live?
Pavlova-9 [17]
Bunch of things:
• Europeans brought tons of diseases (smallpox, influenza, etc), which changed the way Natives lived by killing them. Some historians estimate that as much as 80% of North America's Native population died in the 200 years after Columbus.
• Europeans brought new trade goods and resources, like iron and brass and beads. This changed Native economies and modified the ways they conducted warfare.
• Europeans brought horses, which Natives then acquired and quickly mastered. This dramatically changed the balance of power, as tribes who became best at using horses (like the Comanche and Shoshone) rapidly gained power and land at the expense of other tribes.

Agree or Disagree: Union victory in the Civil War solved all of the major problems that caused the conflict to happen. PLEASE HE
Liula [17]
The Union victory did solve a handful of problems, it abolished slavery and get rid of the Confederate Union but not every problem could be solved. Personally I would disagree because the Civil War had other problems right after because of the victory.
