There was a fear of a civil war between Federalists and anti-Federalists on the Election of 1800. If Jefferson changed his beliefs that there's a triumph within the "Strongest government of the Earth", and tried to unite all Americans regardless of political belief, he would not only put freedom at sake, but he would unite a whole country.
The three most important facts are:
-Power comes from the people. Democracy is a form of social organization that attributes the ownership of power to the whole citizenship. In fact, the Preamble of the United States Constitution starts saying: "We the People", what shows us that the power over which the United States stands comes from the people.
-Citizens of the United States have guaranteed rights. US citizens' rights are guaranteed by the United States Constitution, the supreme law of the country.
-Citizens have certain responsibilities and duties. In the same way that rights are guaranteed, citizens have certain duties and obligations to fulfill, in order for society to function harmoniously and peacefully.
Answer:
Iroquois sustained themselves through hunting, gathering, fishing, and farming. Women were responsible for the crops. They managed the growth and harvest of crops, and settlements moved every 10 to 30 years due to soil losing its nutrients. The Iroquois people carry out six major ceremonies during the year. These are Maple, Planting, Strawberry, Green Corn, Harvest, and Mid-Winter or New Year's festival. These religious ceremonies are often tribal affairs and are concerned primarily with farming, curing illness, and thanksgiving. The five tribes of the Iroquois nation all spoke a very similar dialect. The name 'Iroquois' refers to the language, not the people themselves. They all spoke a version of Iroquois. This is why they were able to communicate so easily. The Iroquoi Tribes, also known as the Haudenosuanee, are known for many things. But they are best known for their longhouses. Each longhouse was home to many members of a Haudenosuanee family. The longhouse was the center of Iroquois life.
The adoption of the metric systemis a discussion that starts around the late 19th century, as it became necessary to have a standarized measuring system around the globe. In fact, in 1875, United States signed the <em>Treaty of the Meter, </em>an international treaty signed by other 16 countries in which thet accepted the commitment of adopting the metric system, originated in France, creating the International Bureau of Weights and Measures. Since then, all the American customary measurements such as pund, quart and foot among others have been converted to the metric system.
In 1960, the metric system was updated and countries such as the United Kingdom, started a transition to the metric system, and in 1968 there was a comission in United States,responsible for researching on the implementation of this system, which was concluded after 3 years with a report called "<em>A Metric America: A Decesion Whose Time Has Come" . </em>The result of this,was the awareness of the need to make official the metric system, and so the Metric Conversion Act was passed in 1975.
According to this Act,the public education system would be responsible for teaching the use of the metric system, which afterwards, was not really developed.
Robert might say, that due to the commercial leadership of the United States, there was not a real need to use the metric system,as other countries would actually understand and use it, and so there wasn´t a real practical obligation to oficially convert into the metric system, that´s why this discussion was and not actually important during the following years.
