John Locke.

One of the key phrases in the Declaration “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” was from Locke’s Two Treatises of Government. Locke developed the idea that all mankind is created equally and that our fundamental human rights (for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness) should never be taken by the government.

The original writers of the Declaration of Independence, namely Jefferson, took inspiration and included some of Locke’s ideas.

2. Why did the South resent the Tariff of 1828? Indian Removal Act
Marysya12 [62]

The North was in favor of tariffs, while the South hated tariffs. This was because the North was focused on industrialization and the South was focused on agriculture.

A tariff is essentially a tax on foreign goods. It helped protect factories and businesses within the United States, as it made people want to buy from their own country since there was no foreign tax. This was <u>good for the North</u>, as more people were buying their products as opposed to them buying elsewhere. This was <u>not good for the South</u> though, as the South normally sold their goods overseas. This made their products look less desirable to foreign countries, as there was now a tax on them. The South also was buying a lot from overseas, but now it was more expensive.

which of the following was one way that western powers gained the upper hand in muslin regions of the world?
Talja [164]

Western rulers were skeptical of forming alliances with their Muslim counterparts, and as a result, sought protection of themselves and their assets from within their own resources and by means of trained military personnel. This influx of western military forces caused tension among the Muslim regions and various leaders but was successful in securing the interests of the Western leaders.

The new police chief held a meeting to introduce himself to the squad he would be overseeing. In his introduction, he spoke abou
melomori [17]

In this case the new police chief promotes a legalistic  (option A) policing style. This mean he focuses on fining law violators, on threatening the population and on arresting criminals. This policing style is very common in big cities with a diverse population because it standardizes a set of rules for everyone, but a legalistic approach portrays the police as a strict institution which may cause social discomfort.
