A.

The reason being said, after Julius Caesar, most leaders were corrupt and greedy, not to mention the fact that Rome was way too spread out for an empire. Another factor that contributed was that foreigners were invading Rome.

In order to overcome his greatest obstacle to implementing his New Deal reform measures, President Franklin D. Roosevelt attempt
denpristay [2]

Answer:

increase the size of the Supreme Court so that he could appoint justices who would supply rulings favorable to him

Explanation:

The US Supreme Court first provoked public protests when, in May 1935, during an unprecedented economic crisis, the NIRA (National Industrial Recovery Act), which entered into force on June 16, 1933, was declared unconstitutional. This act became part of the New Deal of Roosevelt to save the country. Like other laws initiated by Roosevelt and adopted during the first “100 days,” the NIRA was extraordinary, well thought out and had one goal - to prevent huge social shocks that could cause an economic crisis at any moment. It was no accident that he was enthusiastically perceived by both businessmen and ordinary workers and employees of America.

However, the laws of the “New Deal” were literally passed in the 'fire order,' with the procedure for adoption curtailed, so the judges of the Armed Forces had arguments to declare them incompatible with the US Constitution. In January 1936, the Supreme Court’s decision abolished the AAA (Agricultural Adjustment Act) system, which was designed to save and restore the country's agriculture - imposing a tax on firms processing agricultural products, which, according to the judges of the Supreme Court, was contrary to the constitution.

In total, from January 1935 to May 1936, the US Supreme Court declared 11 laws that were passed by Congress in 1933-1934 as unconstitutional. The most important changes introduced by the New Deal in the life of American society were threatened, which caused widespread discontent among the population. The actions of the Supreme Court were opposed by the organized labor movement of America. The "revolutionary situation" began to ripen in the country. The presidential election in 1936 was a kind of referendum in favor of the “New Deal” by Roosevelt, turning the Supreme Court into an object of sharp criticism from the indignant public. Under these conditions, on February 5, 1937, Roosevelt sent a message to Congress on the plan of reform of the Supreme Court, which provided for a significant expansion of its composition. Although Congress did not accept the draft, it became apparent that the Supreme Court could no longer remain in its original position. Soon, the judges of the Supreme Court recognized the National Act on Labor Relations as constitutional. In May 1937, the Constitutional Law on Social Insurance was also successfully tested for constitutionality, and in 1939, also the Law on the Regulation of Agriculture of 1938. In essence, under pressure from the public, a legal 'amnesty' for the New Deal's socio-economic reforms took place.

The American leaders who declared war on Great Britain in 1812 firmly believed that they were beginning a second war of independence. Although the United States failed to achieve any of its stated war aims, the War of 1812 confirmed American nationhood and secured a new respect for the infant republic among the powers of Europe.

The signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783 ended the Revolutionary War and established the United States among the nations of the world. The treaty, however, neither guaranteed the new nation’s survival nor ensured that the powers of Europe would respect its rights. In upholding its rights to trade freely with all of the world’s countries, the United States government struggled to find a balance between military preparedness and diplomacy. The prolonged wars between Britain and France (1793-1815), kicked off by the French Revolution, greatly complicated America’s ability to protect the rights of its shipping and sailors. Additionally, many Americans along the nation’s western frontier believed that the British in Canada encouraged Indian raids on their settlements.

Attacks by the French on American shipping led to an undeclared naval war from 1798 to 1801, known as the Quasi-War. When war between Britain and France started up again in 1803, Britain forbade neutrals, including the United States, from trading with France and her allies. Many Americans believed Britain’s measures were an attempt to re-impose colonial status on them. Desperate for sailors to man their warships, British captains increasingly boarded American ships and “impressed” sailors into service, claiming that the merchant seamen were deserters from the Royal Navy. America’s efforts to preserve its neutral rights by stopping all trade with the warring powers had no effect, other than to hurt the U.S. economy. On June 18, 1812, after two decades of watching its rights violated, the United States defiantly declared war on Britain. President James Madison’s war message to Congress echoed the language of the Declaration of Independence

In military terms, the War of 1812 was inconclusive. The U.S. achieved some notable victories: on Lake Erie (commemorated at Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial), at Fort McHenry (commemorated at Fort McHenry National Monument & Historic Shrine), and in the Battle of New Orleans (commemorated at Chalmette Battlefield, part of Jean Lafitte National Historic Park & Preserve). But the war also saw Washington occupied and the White House set on fire. Two American invasions of Canada failed. The 1814 Treaty of Ghent, which ended the war, merely affirmed the situation prevailing before the war began (the status quo antebellum). The treaty was silent on the issues of commercial rights that had led to war. When war between Britain and France ended in 1815, so did British interference with American shipping.

The most notable result of the War of 1812 was an upsurge in American nationalism. At the war’s conclusion a French diplomat commented that “the war has given the Americans what they so essentially lacked, a national character.” The three-year conflict also resulted in increased funding of the peacetime military, better coastal defenses, a more secure western frontier, and a final confirmation of the Revolution’s outcome. The power of the Indian nations of the Old Northwest and Old Southwest was decisively broken, opening the way for white settlement across a broad front. Never again would European powers have significant influence with American tribes. The war also produced a new national symbol, The Star-Spangled Banner, which Congress made our national anthem in 1931. Most importantly, America’s independence and status in the world were reaffirmed, never again to be seriously challenged... hope this helps

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. wrote Federalist paper No. 10, in which he described how a central governmen
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

James Madison wrote Federalist paper No. 10, in which he described how a central government would avoid breaking down into factions. The purpose of the Federalist Papers in general was to convince anti-federalist states to ratify the Constitution.

Explanation:

Federalist No. 10 continues the discussion begun by Alexander Hamilton in Federalist No. 9. Hamilton had enunciated the destructive nature that facicious behavior could have in a republic, so Madison addresses the possible way to eliminate its negative effects. Madison defines the faction as "a number of citizens, who can be both a majority and a minority of the total, united in an action motivated by passions or interests contrary to the rights of other citizens or contrary to the permanent interests of the community". The author identifies the unequal distribution of wealth, generating the division into social classes within society, as the main cause of the faction.
