Answer:
The answer to your question is "The Civil Service Act"
Explanation:
This quote from Gilded Age Politics:Crash Course US History #26:
"Despite that and the widespread corruption, some national reform legislation actually did get passed in the Gilded Age.

Answer:
The 17-1800s period called "The Enlightenment" made the American colonist believe several things against King George III or an absolute monarchy:
1. The king should not have full authority.
2. The American should take independence from the British, specifically King George III.
3. The king was unfair to the Americans.
Explanation:
The Enlightenment was a period where philosophers used a different way of thinking to solve problems. An example of a text from this period is "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine.
This book explained how King George had been unfair to and ignored the American colonist. It also supported the fact that Americans should become independent from the British and make their own nation, which is known as the United States today.
Contributions like these go against an absolute monarchy where the king holds most if not all the high power of the land among man. Instead, it supports the fact of the people of having a say in the government and the authority.
