Answer:
Considering these questions:
1. What if Napoleon had never been born? (In what ways would history have been different? Do you think someone else would have done what Napoleon did? Why?)
<em />
<em>a. If Napoleon was never born, someone else would have been born to undertake his roles but not in exact ways because nature abhors vacuum.</em>
<em>b. History would have been different because no two persons are the same and are created to perform exactly the same roles in nature. They might undertake similar ventures but not exactly the same at the given time.</em>
<em>
c. Yes someone else would have done what Napoleon did but in his own way. As earlier said no two persons are the same with the same mission. </em>
2. The French Revolution began as a struggle for the rights of the people against a single ruler with all the power. It ended by giving all power to another single ruler. Why do you think that happened?
Answer: It happened because the Public cannot be King, it is only a person that shall be given the people's mandate to lead the others. The only thing the people abhor or do not tolerate is high-handedness of a ruler not a leader. No leader is an absolute, that was why we should not allow too much power to be concentrated in an individual because of abuse. L<em>ord Acton said " Power corrupts but absolute Power corrupts absolutely."</em>
Louis XVIII became the King of France after Napoleon was exiled.
The Articles of confederation was weak in that it had no power to tax, it couldnot enforce the laws in the constitution and couldn't maintain an army.In this case, the central government couldn't accoplish anything because it had no authority as all powers were placed on the states.
The Shays rebellion demostrated to the governement the need for a strong central government, one that could stand firm on basis of its laws and the constitution.This was achieved through the first revolution under the new government that led to the formation of a central government with strong powers and control.
In addition to that, the articles of confederation was weak because it prohibited the collection of direct taxes on income and property yet these taxes were necessary to facilitate the payment of war debts and to enable the country have a working economy.Shays rebellion exposed these weaknessess fro correction.
Matters which time you talking about because he lead a lot of revolutions but one was over throwing batista another one was getting jailed and another becoming leader
