Monasteries were important in the Medieval era for a number of reasons
1. They were the libraries of the era. Monasteries were important repositories of books, especially prior to the invention of the printing press.
2. They were the printing presses of the era. Monks were often engaged in the tedious task of hand copying books to ensure their survival
3. They were a great place to offload extra children of the royals. Third and Fourth sons of Dukes and Earls would often get sent to Monasteries. This ensured orderly succession and a lack of battles over who should inherit.

The Declaration of Independence included a list of grievances in order to show the world why the American colonists were breaking away from Great Britain. Within this list of grievances, the American colonists discussed several different topics including no taxation without representation.

1. I choose the Emancipation proclamation.
The basis for a democratic country is the guarantee of human rights for all of its citizens and allowing all citizens the right to participate in the government.
Freeing other humans from slavery indicates his will to truly bring equality for all people int he nations, because he knew that slavery robbed the very essence of human rights from the people together with their dignity.
2. I compared it with Habeas Corpus
Habeas Corpus allow prisoners to report unlawful treatment when they're in their sentence. Indeed this represent Lincoln' willingness to preserve human rights, but the impact is nowhere near the Emancipation of Slavery that affect millions of human beings.
3. I belive Barrack Obama would be a good example.
Despite his blunder in adressing several economic issues in united states, General population believe that Obama always tried his best in perserving human rights and democracy. (could be seen by programs such as HAPA that give the right for children that born in united states by non-citizzens the right to be a legal citizen)
