Answer:
Prohibition was called the failed experiment because many people consumed alcohol illegally and so a change wasn't seen in alcohol consumption. Alcohol was in such high demand that it was better for the economy if prohibition ended.
It was stated in the book that “The real force that ended the Soviet Union itself and most especially in the expectations and plans of the new reform leadership that came to power in 1985.” This event led to Mikhail being elected and trying to make new policies, but it didn’t work the way he wanted.
Nationalism was a threat to the Soviet Union, just like what the book said, “"That tenacious nationalism, more than any other factor, crushed their hopes for reform and destroyed the Soviet Union.” That is why I believe that communism went out with only a whimper and not a bang.
Answer:
Feudalism
Explanation:
A feudal system (also known as feudalism) is a type of social and political system in which landholders provide land to tenants in exchange for their loyalty and service.
Origins of Feudalism
The system had its roots in the Roman manorial system (in which workers were compensated with protection while living on large estates) and in the 8th-century kingdom of the Franks where a king gave out the land for life (benefice) to reward loyal nobles and receive service in return.
The New England colonists were predominantly Puritans who led strict religious lives. Laws in these colonies assumed that citizens who strayed away from conventional religious customs were a threat to civil order and should be punished for their nonconformity.
Roger Williams (1603 – 1683) was himself a puritan minister from Massachusetts Bay Colony. In his view, any civil authorities had no right to involve themselves in matter of faith. Banished from Massachusetts in 1635, he founded Rhode Island, the first colony with no established church and the first society in America to grant liberty of conscience to everyone.
Massachusetts Bay Colony was therefore the New England colony that did not require all adults to attend church service.
Mercy granted to an offender
In legal terms, "clemency" can take various forms.
... It may take the form of a reprieve, which suspends the carrying out of a criminal sentence to allow the offender to seek ways to have the penalty reduced. (Usually this would be in the case of a death penalty sentence.) This would be the example of "a delay in carrying out a sentence."
... It may be commuting a sentence, which leaves the conviction in place but lessens the penalty. So, for instance, a long prison term is commuted to a shorter time in prison.
... It may be the granting of a full pardon. In that case the "legal forgiveness for a crime" description would fit, but not all acts of clemency are pardons.
