How did the English government's policy of salutary neglect benefit the representative government in the American colonies?

ankoles [38]

Answer:

Salutary neglect, policy of the British government from the early to mid-18th century regarding its North American colonies under which trade regulations for the colonies were laxly enforced and imperial supervision of internal colonial affairs was loose as long as the colonies remained loyal to the British government and contributed to the economic profitability of Britain. This “salutary neglect” contributed involuntarily to the increasing autonomy of colonial legal and legislative institutions, which ultimately led to American independence.

Did reconstruction make real progress in the battle to end discrimination?

r-ruslan [8.4K]

The idea that reconstruction ended discrimination is a gross fallacy. After reconstruction ended, lynch mobs still existed, the KKK ran rampant, poll taxes, literacy test, and other restrictive measures stopped them from gaining any political clout, socially they were still viewed as inferior by many people, and economically they were unable to gain advantageous positions and become monetarily comfortable enough to gain a middle-class identity.

Similarities

been able to solve the many problems facing the Republic. Julius Caesar spoke publicly to the people about these problems, and promised to solve them if he could. The people supported Caeser. He became popular with the people and more powerful.

Roman government led to series of civil wars, and form of government lost out to a kind of monarchy with an emperor at its head. The emperor still maintained the Senate, but they were at his command, and rarely voted for him. By the end of the Pax Romana, democracy was dead in Rome.

Aristotle divided Greek governments into monarchies, oligarchies, tyrannies, and democracies, and historians still use these same divisions.
