b. power was divided among three branches of government.
The Constitution requires that state constitutions maintain a republican form of government and therefore the states followed the three branch model set by the federal government.
The Constitution gave specific and implied powers to the states. To run the business of each state, they created state constitutions to organize their state system. Each state took on the three branch system to organize their state government. The executive branch has a governor as the state leader. The legislative branch in most states is also bicameral or has two houses mimicking the federal Congress. Lastly, the states created a judicial branch with a state supreme court with county and city court houses to support the local levels of the judicial branch.
D. The reason for the fall of the Maya civilization is still unknown. There are many different theories attempting to explain the cause of the Classic Maya collapse and the abandonment of Maya cities in the southern Maya lowlands of Mesoamerica between the 8th and 9th centuries: climate change, drought, deforestation, etc. but although the drought is the leading theory at the moment the truth is yet unknown.
So, Bush believed that all military missions should be based on U.S. strategic interests and should have clear objectives and exit strategies. He does not want to over commit the armed forces and would like to see allies shoulder more responsibility in terms of regional conflicts. Bush believes that U.S. regional priorities consist of Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and the Far East, and he strongly supports maintaining U.S. presence in NATO. He feels that the U.S. should be prepared for military intervention if necessary, but that a strong military will act as a deterrent to security threats.
Gore assailed Bush's proposal to withdraw U.S. forces from the Balkans saying it would be "a damaging blow to NATO" and would jeopardize other U.S. alliances. He has defined six criteria for deciding whether to deploy the military: (1) Is the mission in U.S. national interests? (2) Is military force the only way to solve the conflict? (3) Have all other options been exhausted? (4) Will force solve the problem? (5) Do we have the support of allies? (6) Is the cost of the operation proportionate to the objective? Gore's policy of "forward engagement" calls for early diplomatic intervention to prevent the need for future military deployment.
