History

First of all, it's very important to point out that COMMON LAW based it's judicial decisions on precedent, this means that rulings were based on previous rulings made by other judges. This system has existed since the Middle Ages, and it has spread to countries like The United States of America, for example.

Trial by jury and applying the law equally throughout the land were also two other fundamental principles of Common Law. Juries were formed by people with no legal knowledge and without biased assumptions in order to make the final decision as unbiased as possible. Regarding equality, there was a principle also called "principle of equality" that established that every man and woman were equal under the eyes of the law, also making sure that the law was equally and impartially applied throughout the English land.

The only principle that is not part of the Common Law is establishing England as a Constitutional Monarchy.

England was established as a Constitutional Monarchy after the Glorious Revolution of 1688, limiting the power of the reigning monarch. Nowadays, the monarch is politically neutral and mostly has a ceremonial role.

What groups were targeted in the Holocaust
sammy [17]

<em>During the Holocaust many groups were targeted, but the majority of the victims were that of Jewish religion and heritage. The Jewish public was forced into camps and made to work under horrible conditions, most died from a lack of food and disease that rocked the small rooms that the victims lived in- then there was also the gas chambers and guards shooting people.</em>

I hope this helped a little!

What were the most important factors that contributed to Barack Obama's election in 2008?
FrozenT [24]

The population was dissatisfied with the Republican policies and the promises Obama made had been very enticing.

Explanation:

Obama was an unlikely president in spite of his long winded political career and savvy politics not the least because of his skin color and the nature of the country at the time in the middle of a long winded war on terror that did not look like it was going to end any time soon.

Obama was elected as a polar opposite alternative to the President Bush who had not made the people satisfied with his efforts and the country seemed to be in a huge crisis in his time.
