<span><span>The Declaration of Independence was written in order to clarify and justify the actions of The Second Continental Congress, which was to assume the powers of an offical government. The colonists' saw themselves as Englishmen, with all the rights of Englishmen. However, after numerous usurptions the colonists contested the violations of the Parliament based upon English liberty. The Declaration of Independence combined purpose with principle. In June 1776 the Congress of the united colonies appointed five delegates to produce a formal written declaration of independence, after several weeks Thomas Jefferson completed the draft.It was written to King George III and the world to read. Think about it, a public statement affirming the tyranny of the English King and a testament to the hypocrisy of the English Parliament.  
   There was three purposes of why it was written   1) a theory of government  2)a list of complaints  3) <span>a declaration of war</span></span></span>

In Shakespeare's plays, noble and high-born characters often speak in _____.
Helen [10]

William Shakespeare, born in England in 1564 and died 1616, was an English writer who became known as the father of English literature. Through his many poems, plays, comedies, tragedies, dramas, etc, Shakespeare showed his enormous ability and his deep interest in expressing, through writing, his reflections, perceptions, observations and ideas on different issues of everyday life. Among the many things Shakespeare was known for, was his use of different language techniques to establish a difference between not just his ideals, but also people that he wrote about from his time. In particular, he tended to use a combination of prose and verse in his writings and used them to set differences of hierarchy, social status and even intelligence, especially in his characters. Thus, it has been known that Shakespeare usually used prose when his lesser characters, those who were lower-born and less educated, spoke, acted, or thought, while he used free verse for higher-born and more educated ones. This is because verse was more complex, it had rythm and meter and it established social status, and level of education, which indicated a higher birth, and thus, it was understood, these characters were better prepared for the use of such complex language.

Describe how single member districts discourage minor parties
Nata [24]
The existence of single-member districts discourages the creation of minor parties because the party that receives the most votes secures the office. In other words, the winner gets everything, and other parties have nothing to show for their efforts. If, by way of illustration, the Green Party fielded candidates in all 435 House races and received 20 percent of the vote in each district, it would not win any seats at all. In a system with proportional representation, seats in the legislature are allocated according to the party's share of the popular vote. Thus, minor parties are rewarded for fielding candidates in elections because their efforts result in at least a modicum of representation in the legislative branch.
