One example that can be cited as a representative government is The Virginia House of Burgesses, which was the first legislative assembly of elected representatives formed in the 13 colonies. This assembly was created in 1619 by the Virginia Company.
Another example that can be cited is William Penn's Frames of Government of Pennsylvania. This was a constitution for the colony<span> of Pennsylvania. These frames are important as they were already too forward for the time and set the base for democracy.</span>

Which phrases best describe the goals of the Enlightenment? Check all that apply.
Gekata [30.6K]

The Enlightenment appears as a need to deny the divine right of the king, so the first option offered is excluded. As such, it propagated science, democracy, social justice, a democratic government, against the absolute and ecclesiastical dogma, which includes the secularist attitude and the understanding of the world on the basis of it. By advocating a democratic government that is overthrown by the majority if it is not for the benefit of the people, it means examining and confirming the natural rights that people possess. The Enlightenment does not adopt anything without questioning, examining and scientific approach, which excludes the fourth option, while it  is very much concerned with the examination of authority, since the emphasis is on the law of nature, the natural law of the authority is always examined.

The correct options are B. C. and E.

Why was the War 1812 unnecessary?​
Reil [10]

Answer:

The American Revolution was, of course, fought between America and Great Britain. The second war between America and Great Britain was the War of 1812.  Some historians feel that this was an unnecessary war and that the conflicts between the two countries could have been solved peacefully if both sides had communicated more effectively.

Tension had been building up between Great Britain and the United States for several years. The tension was about how the British treated American sailors, how the British were befriending Native Americans, and also about trade policies and taxes. When the war ended in December of 1814, the military fighting stopped, but none of the issues that started the war had been resolved.
