Correct answer:  

<h2>The Anti-Federalists finally agreed to ratify the Constitution if a Bill of Rights was added to protect the rights of the people from the government.</h2>

Details:

The Articles of Confederation, in place prior to the ratification of the Constitution of the United States of America, had granted stronger authority to the states.  Patrick Henry and other Anti-Federalists were concerned about too much power winding up in the hands of the federal government and its executive branch, thus allowing a small number of national elites to control the affairs of the USA.  They feared this also would diminish the rights and freedoms of individual citizens.

The Bill of Rights, laid out in the first ten amendments to the Constitution, provided some reassurance to Anti-Federalists in  the fight over ratification.  The compromise which led to agreement in regard to ratification of the Constitution was called the Massachusetts Compromise, because of major opposition to ratification that had existed in Massachusetts.  John Hancock and Samuel Adams (both of them anti-Federalists) were the ones who helped negotiate the compromise. The anti-Federalists agreed that they would support ratification of the Constitution, with the understanding that recommendations for amendments would follow if the Constitution was ratified.  The Federalists promised to support the proposed amendments, which would outline a Bill of Rights to guarantee protection of specific rights the anti-Federalists wanted specifically asserted in the Constitution.  

The US Constitution was ratified in 1788.  The Bill of Rights was created in 1789 and ratified in 1791.

The Federalists believed in a strong, central government. They supported the Constitution as written and argued for immediate ratification. The Federalist Papers are the articles they wrote in support of the Constitution. This group was large and powerful. It included people like George Washington and John Adams, who became the first two U.S. presidents.

On the other hand, the Anti-Federalists thought the new government was too strong. They wanted to see a Bill of Rights added to the Constitution to protect state governments' power and the people's rights. Anti-Federalists wanted to wait for ratification until a Bill of Rights was complete. Anti-Federalists included Patrick Henry and George Mason.

Answer: Unification and Awakening of the American Nation

Explanation:

There is no image attached but the image in question is most probably that which Benjamin Franklin attached to an editorial piece he wrote titled '<em>Join or Die</em>'' which called for the unification of Colonial American efforts to defeat the French and their Indian allies in the French and Indian war.

There were a number of symbols inherent in the image of the snake in the carton but perhaps the most obvious was that of unification.

The snake in the picture was cut up into 8 pieces with each of them representing the colonies and Franklin hoped to draw upon the belief then that if you put together the pieces of a dead snake that had been cut up before sundown, the pieces of the snake would magically rejoin, bringing the snake to life again.

The symbol was clear that if the American colonies joined together against the French and Indian threat, they would be unified into a stronger colonial administration that would better ensure their survival.

"Hamlet" was written as a warning to what country? What was he trying to warn these people against?
irinina [24]

Answer:

On the one hand, Gertrude still plays the role of the faithful queen, telling Claudius of Polonius' murder. She does not object to Hamlet's being sent to England, and she does not abide by Hamlet's request to stay away from the king

On the other hand, she does not report all of the details of her conversation with Hamlet, says he's weeping with remorse, and there is no evidence to suggest that she knows the fate that awaits her son in England.
