Your political cartoon would want to show recognizable delegates of the American colonies -- men such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin,  Alexander Hamilton, etc.  The leaders of the Revolution, who sought to establish a new nation, independent of British control, would have been convicted of high treason against the British crown.  Under the law of Great Britain, it was considered high treason "if a man do levy war against our Lord the King in his realm" -- which is exactly what the revolutionaries had done.  The punishment for high treason, under British law, was to be hanged, drawn and quartered.  That's the usual way it's stated, but the actual order of events is drawn, hanged and quartered.  A traitor would be tied to a horse and drawn (that is, dragged) to the execution site, where he would be hanged.  Before the hanging killed the person, they'd cut him down mutilate him -- things such as disemboweling and castrating the victim.  Then they'd quarter him, which meant tying him to four horses which would pull in four different directions to rip the man's body apart.

So, depending on how gruesome and gory you want to draw your political cartoon, there's plenty of awful stuff that might have happened to the delegates of the new nation, the United States, had they failed to win independence from Great Britain.

How did the Middle East change as a result of World War I?
Luden [163]
The losses in the Middle East were staggering: the war not only ravaged the land and decimated armies, it destroyed whole societies and economies. In this way, the experience of World War I in the Middle East is perhaps more akin to the experience of World War II in Europe.

What was the political significance of the great compromise and the three-fifths compromise?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The two compromises established a delicate balance between the North and the South.

Explanation:

The Great Compromise of 1787, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, was a political agreement during the Constitutional Convention of 1787 that defined the structure of the legislature of the United States. Under the Compromise, the legislature would be divided in two chambers: the Senate, as the upper house, where every state would have equal representation, and the Congress, the lower house, where seats would be allocated to states proportionally, according to their population. The Three-Fifths Compromise, on the other hand, was the other great compromise agreed during the Constitutional Convention. According to this compromise, three out of every five slaves would be counted as part of the population of each slave state when allocating seats for the Congress.

<u>The political significance of these two compromises was that they established a delicate balance between the North and the South.</u> For the northern states, which were generally smaller than the southern ones, the Great Compromise meant that they would be considered as equals. For the southern states, the Three-Fifths Compromise meant that they were overrepresented. If slaves had not been counted, they'd have been a minority in Congress. However, this balance was very fragile, and the disagreements between the North and South erupted into the Civil War of 1861-65,
