Answer: John Locke's philosophy

Explanation: The philosophers of the Enlightenment and most importantly John Locke's political philosophy, were the ideas that directly inspired the writing of the Declaration of Independence. It was Thomas Jefferson who put Locke's words on writing. In his "Second Treatise on Government", he wrote that all human beings have "perfect freedom" and the phrase "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness,".

multiple important causes that led to secession by the South and ultimately the Civil War. Explanation of theses causes and why
skad [1K]

Answer:

There were many reasons that led to Secession which ultimately led to Civil war.

Explanation:

Before the Civil War, the country was divided between North and South. Secession was withdrawal of 11 states where slavery was legal from the Union. This was followed by electing Abraham Lincoln as the President. There were many issues between the two states which included the beliefs like one wanted more States Rights while the other wanted the federal government to control the states. Then there were differences over taxes. But the main issue was still slavery. It was legal in South which was then gradually banned.  

The Civil War broke out as a result of all these issues. Since the time of the American Revolution, two camps emerged when it came to the role of government.

The American Revolution was not a civil war because  a “civil war” is typically between two groups within the same country.  For instance, Parliament and the King fought each other in the English Civil War. Similar conflicts occurred between the Union and the Confederacy during the American Civil War.

Contrarily, the American Revolution was a conflict between a colonizer and a colony. Usually, these are not referred to as "civil wars," but rather as "rebellions," "revolts," or (to their supporters) "wars of liberation."

Any of these might constitute a "revolution," so long as it alters society, the economy, and culture fundamentally as well as the leadership. As you can expect, this makes the word "revolution" very political. The proponents of change refer to it as a "revolution," whilst the opponents use a less admirable term.

The Civil War would have been referred to as a "revolution" if the Confederacy had prevailed, and the Union may have even done so at some point. Instead, it fell short, and now we refer to the conflict of 1861–1865 as a civil war. It's just another instance of how the winners write history.
