3 0

The Cheka were the first secret police service created in the Soviet Union.

Explanation:

The Cheka were created in the early stages of the Soviet Union, after Lenin gained power. They were practically the first secret police service created in the Soviet Union. The Cheka were only obeying the Communist Party, and they were the ones that were doing the dirty work on the ground for them.

This unit was responsible for the elimination and imprisonment of millions of people. They were running the Gulag, labor camps, and they were the first in line to prevent or destroy any rebellion or protest against the Communist Party. Lenin formed this unit with an intention to keep his power and position safe, and so they did.

Some facts about the Cheka are:

  • the official name of the organization was the All-Russian Extraordinary Commission
  • the organization was formed on December 5, 1917
  • the number of members was around 200,000

Which rebellion led to the overthrow of the Qing dynasty? Why?
natita [175]

Answer:

Xinhai Revolution or 辛亥革命

Explanation:

There were multiple revolutions during the Qing Dynasty, such as the Revolt of the Three Feudatories, White Lotus Rebellion, Eight Trigrams uprising of 1813, Taiping Rebellion, Nian Rebellion, Du Wenxiu Rebellion, Dungan revolts, and the Boxer Rebellion. This was to be understanded - the Qing were of the Manchu tribe - not of the Han, and so the Chinese do not like them much. However, the Qing have supressed them all, until the Xinhai Revolution. There were two main reasons why they were succesful: the Qing was weak, foreign countries are all coming in and trying to get a piece of China. Another reason was their equipment was far more advanced then most other rebellions during the Qing: they had Western guns and bullets. So that was why they were so succesful.

Why was the Bill of Rights added to the Constitution?
zysi [14]
Federalists argued that the Constitution did not need a bill of rights, because the people and the states kept any powers not given to the federal government. Anti-Federalists held that a bill of rights was necessary to safeguard individual liberty.
