N a democracy, the people are sovereign<span>. This means that the power rests in the hands of the people. A democracy can be either direct or representative. The ideas of democracy originated in ancient Greece, which was made up of many city-states. Each city-state had its own government and leader. Around 500 BC, the city-state of Athens adopted a democratic form of government. All citizens were allowed to vote; but slaves, women, and men who did not own property were not considered full citizens and therefore did not have voting rights. In the 300s BC, the Greek philosopher Aristotle advanced his ideas about democracy, citizenship, and constitutions in a work titled </span>Politics<span>.

Many new englanders saw the war of 1812 as a plot hatched by
just olya [345]
When embargo failed to remedy the situation and Great Britain refused to rescind the Orders in Council (1807) and France continued its decrees, certain Democratic-Republicans known as war hawks felt compelled to go to war. Henry Clay and John C. Calhoun pushed a declaration of war through Congress, stressing a short war had the added benefit of permitting the United States to grab valuable farmlands in the British colony of Canada. Vehement protests erupted in those parts of the country where the opposition Federalist political party held sway, especially in Connecticut and Massachusetts. The governors of these two states as well as Rhode Island refused to place their state militias under federal control for duty outside their respective states. In the elections that followed in a few months, some members of Congress who voted for war, paid the price. Eight New England congressmen were rejected by the voters, and several others saw the writing on the wall and declined to seek reelection. There was a complete turnover of the New Hampshire delegation.
