A relevant topic of early US history is the Declaration of Independence, which took place on July 4, 1776.

<h3 /><h3>What motivated the declaration of US Independence?</h3>

The United States was divided into thirteen colonies under English rule, which exploited resources and wealth from the American territory, in addition to instituting the slavery of Africans, which generated dissatisfaction in the settlers who relied on Enlightenment thoughts to start the American Revolution, in search of the end of colonization.

It is important to emphasize the importance of the Enlightenment for the establishment of ideals of freedom and the achievement of rights for American citizens. Some of the philosophers who influenced the American Revolution were:

Montesquieu
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
John Locke

Montesquieu's ideas were related to the separation of powers between the legislative, executive and judiciary, generating a greater balance between government power, reducing centralization and increasing democracy.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau developed the theory of the social contract, to maintain order and the development of society, as a form of agreement between all citizens for the preservation of equality in society.

John Locke's ideals were referring to the natural rights of individuals, for him, all individuals have the right to life, liberty and private property.

Therefore, the dissatisfaction of the settlers and the events that occurred in Europe in the period influenced the ideals and values for American independence, fighting the War of Independence with the victory of the Americans and the consolidation of the country as a federalist republic.

A healthy democracy requires that voting be an accurate representation of the will of the people. Identify and describe two pote

Lena [83]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

In modern, democratic countries, a healthy democracy requires that voting be an accurate representation of the will of the people. Two potential flaws in the voting process and how they challenge its accuracy or its ability to reflect the people's will is are the controversial issue of the electoral college as the preferred way to decide an election and the way electoral controversies are resolved.

The United States decides Presidential elections with the Electoral College, that is a process, not a place. But over the years, many Americans had demanded that it would be better to respect the popular vote instead of using the old electoral college way to decide an election. For instance, in the last presidential election, it was the candidate of the Democratic Party who won the election in the electoral vote but lost the electoral college election. Something similar happens with electoral controversies resolution, as was the case of the election in Florida when the Supreme Court decided that the winner of the election had been George W. Bush over Al Gore.
