<em>B. Soviet building of the Berlin Wall.</em>

Explanation:

After World War II ended, Germany got split up amongst the Allied powers. The United States, France, and Great Britain got West Germany, while the Soviet Union got East Germany.

The Soviet Union centered around communism, so East Germany had a communist government. Many Germans realized they did not want to obey and live under this government and wanted to flee. East Germans started leaving and moving to West Germany.

Over time, East Germany started to become fearful that too many people were leaving and decided they needed to do something about it. They built the Berlin Wall that was heavily guarded and hundreds of people ended up dying trying to get through.

This was the first cause of tension between the Soviet Union and President Kennedy. Both John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan gave speeches about the wall and how horrible it was.

The correct responses:

b. The Colonies have all the power of any other independent nation.  

e. The Colonies are declaring independence.


Historical context/detail:

The quoted section comes from the <em>Declaration of Independence </em>(1776), which was written on behalf of the American colonies by Thomas Jeffersons.  In preparing the <em>Declaration of Independence,</em> Jefferson and the American patriots were asserting their right to govern themselves and throw off the government of the British monarchy.   The American founding fathers got ideas like this from the Enlightenment philosopher John Locke. According to Locke's view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed. Locke argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting their own life, liberty, and property.  This also meant the right to change a government if the existing government did not protect those rights.

In the<em> Declaration of Independence,</em> Thomas Jefferson offered a list of "facts to be submitted to a candid world" to demonstrate that the British king had been seeking to establish "an absolute Tyranny over these States" (the colonial states which were declaring their independence). Revolution was justified, in the view taken by the colonists, if it could be shown that the British government was acting in tyrannical ways toward the colonies.
