An alliance is an agreement made by two or more parties to secure common goals and to defend the other party in case of war. They were formed to prevent war and to maintain a balance of power. But one event could lead up to a huge conflict.
The alliances are the main reason behind World War 1 because they turned what was meant to be a brief war between accuser and accused into a world war. How the alliances turned a brief war into a world war is a classic case of one thing led to another.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

In the words of James Madison: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”

Within the separation of powers, each of the three branches of government has “checks and balances” over the other two. For instance, Congress makes the laws, but the President can veto them and the Supreme Court can declare them unconstitutional. The President enforces the law, but Congress must approve executive appointments and the Supreme Court rules whether executive action is constitu-tional. The Supreme Court can strike down actions by both the legislative and executive branches, but the President nominates Supreme Court justices and the Senate confirms or denies their nominations. “Ambition must be made to counteract ambition,” wrote James Madison in Federalist 51, so that each branch will seek to limit the power of the other two branches to protect its own power. Such a system makes concerted action more difficult, but it also makes tyranny less likely.

What is one specific way that living in a company town prevented workers from forming organized labor unions?
Anna007 [38]
In the early 1900's , a company often provided a company town, a place where the worker could live in the near working location ( usually like a mining location)

The workers usually were lured by the promise of high wage.

But here's the thing, in company town, a source of living usually can only obtained in a company store, and the cost is really high.

So instead of getting a high wage, the workers trapped in huge debt to the company, creating some sort of slavery that they have to work to pay off their debt to the company

Techincally, the company could easily bring those workers to the court ( even though is very cruel, they obtain the debt in a 'legal' way), so basically workers cant do a thing
