What are Some of the historical events that shaped the formation of the US federal government?

History

Brums [2.3K]3 years ago

One of the biggest historical events leading to the formation of the US government was Enlightenment ideas stemming from Europe. The writings of Montesquieu and Locke were particularly important to how the US was framed as a system of branches and individual freedoms. The goal was to give states power to make decisions individual to their people and region and keep larger matters like war, debt, taxes, etc. to the federal government. The initial amendments in the Constitution referred to as the Bill of Rights addressed specific issues the American people dealt with under British rule. For example, amendment 4 addresses the quartering of soldiers the colonists were required to do following the French and Indian War. The 10th amendment specifically gives rights to the states if it is not explicitly addressed in the Constitution for the federal government. This was to prevent a monarchy and/or dictatorship in the future. <span />

Which of these would be most useful in studying the effect of germs
geniusboy [140]
B. A graph showing the number of Native America’s between 1492 and 1600.

I think this is the best answer because the question places emphasis on STUDYING the effect of germs exchanged, not what type of germs were exchanged.
