History

The correct answer is: D. They believed that representatives were better able to vote on national issues than ordinary citizens were.

Explanation

The excerpt contrasts ancient democracies, that were characterized by tyranny and run by mobs, to the idea of a large government representation so as to demostrate that whenevever a group of people is assembled, no matter who is in it, they tend to make the wrong decisions, that is, decisions led by passion instead of reason as stated in the excerpt:

"<em>passion never fails to wrest the sceptre from reason".</em>

Moreover, Federalists wanted a strong national government, instead of granting the power to the states, and believed that only one person could represent 30.000 people.

gregori [183]

Answer:

D) stand against the wave of revolutions long after other colonies had rebelled.

Explanation:

James was the last British governor of the Province of Georgia. His popularity among the colonists allowed him to have control over his colony during the American revolutionary war. He was the only Royal governor of the thirteen Colonies at that time. While never fully in control of the state during the revolution, he did restore large areas within Georgia to colonial rule. That makes Georgia the only colony that was regained by the British once they had been expelled.
