Article V of the U.S. Constitution talks about the process of modifying the Constitution. According to the article, the process to propose and ratify an amendment can be started by either the US Congress or the state legislatures:

Both the Senate and the House of the U.S. Congress can propose an amendment only if it reaches at least two-thirds of votes in favor. If the proposal is approved, then it goes to the state legislatures OR the state conventions so that it can be voted on. If the amendment is ratified by at least three-fourths of the state legislatures or the state convention, it becomes a law.

When the state legislatures start the process, they first have to propose a National Convention with two-thirds of votes. Once in the National Convention, the states legislature officially propose the amendment and is voted on. If the amendment is ratified by three-fourths of the state legislatures (or conventions in three-fourths of the states), it becomes a law.

What is athens and sparta
Colt1911 [192]
Spartan life was simple. The focus was on obedience and war. Slavery made this possible by freeing the young men from household and industrial duties and allowing them to focus on their military duties. Young boys were trained to be warriors; young girls were trained to be mothers of warriors.


Athenian life was a creative wonderland. As an Athenian, you could get a good education and could pursue any of several kinds of arts or sciences. You could serve in the army or navy, but you didn't have to.
(This applied only to boys, however: Girls were restricted to other pursuits, not war or business or education.)

Answer:

C. income tax

Explanation:

Federal income tax traces its roots back to the Civil War era, but for much of US history, the notion was highly controversial. [5] The original language of the U.S. Constitution barred the federal government from levying direct taxes unless the tax was apportioned.
