My personal choice would be john Locke, i feel as Locke would tell American politicians that they are corrupt and should be overthrown. that this is not the america that the founding fathers envisioned for this country. He would say the the government controls the people and the people no longer control the government and it needs to be fixed or it will be replaced.

I. What way was freedom a central idea in the Declaration of Independence
Alika [10]
Hey!!

In the 2nd paragraph of the Declaration of Independence.

“We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed with certain unalienable rights, that amount these are life, LIBERTY, and the pursuit of happiness.”

Thomas Jefferson, who wrote the declaration, greatly admired John Locke.

Locke’s list of natural rights (in which no one can take away) includes the right to property which in his definition, includes Liberty(freedom).

Why did the United States what to build the Panama Canal?
Misha Larkins [42]
The United States wanted to build the Panama Canal in order to save time and money on trading. Before the Panama Canal, people had to sail all the way around Africa in order to get to the other side of the world, which costed much more money and took a lot longer. The US owns the canal because of the Hay-Bunau-Varilla treaty, which gave the rights to the USA to build and manage it.

5. How did the power of
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: They knew they had to unite to avoid defeat.

Explanation:

The Axis powers of Germany, Italy and Japan swept across the world in the second World War and with overwhelming strength and tactics, overwhelmed many areas that were not supposed to have fallen so easily.

In Europe for instance, the Germans crushed the British and French armies such that France was defeated and occupied in a month and the British had to be evacuated frantically. Germany then went on to conquer most of Europe and began attacking Africa. When they launched an attack into the Soviet Union, they almost captured Moscow.

In Asia, Japan swept across the islands and nations of east Asia and captured massive territories in China as well as capturing the Philippians and Indonesia. They also attacked Hawaii in a bid to destroy the U.S. Pacific fleet.

When the allies saw the massive Axis war machine and power that faced them, they knew they had to unite to stand a chance of winning. This led to the Communist Soviet Union and the Western powers of Britain and the U.S. uniting against the Axis even though they did not trust one another.
