Answer:

Jade is unique when compared with other gems because in the excerpt it says "The value of jade to the Mayan people went far beyond its use as an art material. It had deep spiritual significance as well. The Mayan people saw a connection to water and plants in the mineral’s green color. Some evidence suggests that Mayan royalty associated jade with life and death. It was said that a small bead of jade placed on the tongue would absorb the spirit of a dying royal." So this shows that jade was big part of their culture. The event in recent history changed geologist’s ideas about where the Mayans and earlier people found the jade they used in their artwork is when Hurricane Mitch devastated Guatemala and Honduras in 1999, heavy rains and flooding exposed many previously covered deposits of jade. This included a large vein of a rare blue-green variety of jadeite that had been used by the Olmec people.

"For the natives, they are near all dead of smallpox, so as the Lord hathe [has] cleared our title to what we possess." —John Wi
Sloan [31]

This passage expresses some of the negative attitudes that English settlers had towards American Indians.

First, the quotes serve to highlight the fact that colonists did not feel particularly bad for the deaths of the natives, as they show no empathy towards them. They were most likely indifferent to the loss of culture and the disruption of family life that this caused as well.

Moreover, it shows that they knew the reasons why the Indians were dying (smallpox), but had no interest in taking any measures to prevent it.

Third, they show a sense of entitlement over the lands of the indigenous people. As most of them have died, and the population cannot defend itself, they have no problem in taking their land forcefully.

Finally, by comparing themselves to the Spanish, they also show awareness of the destruction and chaos that colonial powers have created in other places, and are thankful that they did not have to engage in a difficult war with the Native Americans.

In at least two paragraphs, discuss whether you believe the framers of the U.S. Constitution created a democracy.
kipiarov [429]
<span>Certainly not. The United States has never, since its founding, consisted of a small number of citizens, still less of citizens that could practically assemble in one place at one time and debate their actions. A pure democracy in this classical Greek city-state sense was never practical, and was not seriously considered.
 
What the Framers created was a constitutional representative republic. Sovereignty is vested in the people, like a democracy (and unlike a constitutional monarchy), but the people do not rule directly. Instead, they elect representatives, at regular intervals, and these rule in the peoples' stead. Their powers are limited, first, by the fact that they are elected for only short terms, and must be re-elected if they wish to continue in power, and secondly, and much more importantly, by the Constitution itself, which puts express written limits on their powers even between elections.</span>

What was the main benefit of slavery to governments in the colonies?
QveST [7]
The main benefit of slavery to governments in the colonies is that it provided a system of almost entirely free labor, since the slaves were not compensated for their work, which took place primarily in fields. <span />
