Philip II was King of the Spanish Empire between (1556–1598), which included the territories of Spain, Portugal, Naples, Sicily and he was Duke of Milan too. After his marriage, with Queen Mary Tudor, he became also King of England and Ireland.

He was an absolute monarch, who believed in the divine right of kings, through which these obtain their power directly from God, and are guided by God too during the ruling, therefore it is imposible that their decisions can be wrong. All the power in the nation is concentrated on his figure (legislative, executive and judiciary powers), he appointed his subordinates who answered to him and left no decision-making power to the citizens, therefore there were no democratic practices.

King Philip II of Spain, also known as Philip the Prudent, was one of the world's largest emperors.  He, as a head of the government of Spain, believed in the unchallenged and eternal right of monarchs which he used too, to justify several immoral and illegal acts like murders. Philip developed a system of regional self-government in which viceroys were answerable to him and he ruled as an absolute monarch.

Were the effects of the war of 1812 mostly negative for the United States?
N76 [4]

Explanation:The results of the War of 1812, which was fought between the United Kingdom and the United States from 1812 to 1815, included no immediate boundary changes. The main result of the war was two centuries of peace with each other.

All causes of the war had disappeared with the end of the war between Britain and France and the destruction of the power of Native Americans to block American expansion into the Northwest. American fears of the Native Americans ended, as did British plans to create a buffer Native American state. The Americans' quest for honor, after their humiliations by the British, was satisfied. The final collapse of the opposition Federalist Party opened an "Era of Good Feelings," with lessened partisanship and an exuberant spirit.

Which of the following statements reflect the complexity of the current debate regarding undocumented aliens select all that app
Eddi Din [679]

The correct answers are as followed:


A.) Deporting undocumented aliens could separate families whose children are born in America- This issue with this problem is the fact that individuals born on American soil are technically United States citizens. However, their parents may not necessarily be citizens if they came here as undocumented immigrants. This causes significant problems, as young kids may be split from their parents who are responsible for taking care of them.


B.) The logistic of tracking and deporting all undocumented aliens in America would require enormous resources- Trying to deport all undocumented aliens would cost the federal government a significant amount of money. This is because of the resources needed to track down these individuals (research, information about their living situation, family history, etc.) along with the cost of transporting them back to their native country.
