Why did the French plantation owners force African slaves to work without being fed?

History

The French plantation owners were occasionally forcing the African slaves to work without giving them food, and the main reason for that was because they were occasionally rebelling against their owners.

Even if there was just one of the slaves that was going to stand off and disobey its owner, or if he/she tries to escape, all of the other slaves owned by that owner will share the consequences.

In this way, the French were trying to demotivate the slaves to make troubles as it was not only the person that did something going to be in trouble, but also his family, his friends. It was a tactically well played move by the French to keep order, as most of the slaves were not going to dare to do such a thing and because of them all the others to suffer too.

Separation of church and state  and trial by jury of one's peers are some similarities between the Magna Carta and the US constitution.

Explanation:

Magna carta' Libertatum is commonly called the 'great charter'  is a charter of rights agreed by King John in 1215. It protected the freedom of the England' wealthy classes. It was against Absolutism and monarchy and gave rise to the common law. It was written in order to protect the rights of the people against the tyrannical king and it also revealed the grievances pertaining to the feudal system.

Similarly, Declaration of independence was written due to the tyranny and despotic attitude of the English crown against the colonists. People were burdened with heavy taxes and the annoyed colonists plunged into protests paving way for the secession from the homeland and independence. Both the documents gave importance to human rights.

Correct answer:  A) Help countries torn by conflict create conditions for lasting peace.

The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to UN Peacekeeping Forces in 1988.  In awarding the Prize, the Nobel Foundation described the mission of UN Peacekeeping Forces in this way:  

<em>The United Nations Peacekeeping Forces are employed by the World Organization to maintain or re-establish peace in an area of armed conflict. The UN may engage in conflicts between states as well as in struggles within states. The UN acts as an impartial third party in order to prepare the ground for a settlement of the issues that have provoked armed conflict. If it proves impossible to achieve a peaceful settlement, the presence of UN forces may contribute to reducing the level of conflict.</em>
