The Constitution of the United States of America, written in 1787 in Philadelphia, is the fundamental law of the US federal system of government and the landmark document of the Western world.

The correct answer is <em>C.</em> To protect the individual rights of the people.

The Bill of Rights were added to the Constitution two years after it went to effect. The purpose was to have a list of people's rights explicitly mentioned in the Constitution that must protect the citizens of the United States.

The Bill of Rights was passed by the <em>House of Representatives</em> in 1789 and officially accepted as an amendment on December 15th, 1791.

How did Olmec civilization differ from Maya civilization?
Lilit [14]
Well, the Mayan's were quite a secluded, BIG civilization, which did not trade a lot (traded with the Olmec) and was a bit independent. Some differences were the style of their clothing. The Mayans believed deeply that their clothing should have symbols from their gods. Another difference, would be that the Olmec traded a lot more with the North, yet was not as large as the Mayans, but were technologically further advanced as the Mayans used string for their writing. Sorry this is not terse but I hope this little info. helps you.
