In the early 1400s, Europeans knew little about the world beyond their continent. Many sailors would have heard stories of treacherous seas and sea monsters that destroyed any ship trying to cross the ocean. The sailors would hear these stories and become superstitious. They wouldn’t want to take a journey that they believed would most likely claim their lives.

On the other hand, maritime travel had the potential to earn sailors great wealth and prosperity. European nations wanted to find sea routes that would allow them to continue to trade with Asian merchants. If they were one of the first nations to do so, they would be able to increase their wealth and get the materials they needed to help their nations prosper.

What is one of the following problems that may have a result from a direct democracy
love history [14]

Answer:

<h2>direct democracy</h2><h2>Issues and controversies</h2><h2>Discussions on direct-democratic institutions deal with several issues. The strongest normative grounds for direct democracy are the democratic principles of popular sovereignty, political equality, and all the arguments for participative democracy that support the idea that all citizens should have the right not only to elect representatives but also to vote on policy issues in referenda. Since assembly democracy cannot be an option in modern societies (outside Switzerland), direct-democratic institutions are regarded not as a full-scale alternative to representative democracy but as a supplement to or counterweight within democratic systems with major representative features. Nevertheless, the institutional difference and competition between representative and direct-democratic processes lie at the core of the controversy whether direct democracy contributes to undermining representative democracy or can offer enrichments of democracy.</h2>

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

One of the biggest problems was that the national government had no power to impose taxes. To avoid any perception of “taxation without representation,” the Articles of Confederation allowed only state governments to levy taxes. To pay for its expenses, the national government had to request money from the states.
