A republic is any state in which the supreme power is in the hands of the people and the people that were elected, i.e. the representatives of the people. Moreover, a republic is different from a monarchy, because in a republic the people elect a president rather than a monarch.

Which statements are true of the Magna Carta? Choose all answers that are correct.
Nata [24]

Answer:

3. The Magna Carta guaranteed that the king could not impose new taxes without permission from a council.

1. English barons and church leaders wrote the Magna Carta because they could no longer tolerate King John's abuses of their traditional rights.

Another way to rephrase the first one is;

Among the many restrictions placed upon the King by the Nobles was the idea that the king could not impose taxes without the approval of the “common counsel” of the Kingdom:

Another way to rephrase the second one is;

The committee of Twenty Five were a group of barons in the forefront of the opposition to King John who were entrusted by the terms of clause 61 of Magna Carta to ensure the king’s compliance with its terms.

The church clergy that helped were Cathedral churches in Salisbury and Lincoln.

Explanation:

Justice

King John’s father, Henry II (r. 1154–89), introduced extensive judicial reforms, established the authority of the royal courts and laid firm foundations for the future system of justice in England. In contrast, John regularly abused the justice system to suppress his opponents and to extort revenue from the barons. The justice system and feudal law were two of the main themes addressed in Magna Carta, and the most famous clause dealt with justice:

No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful judgement of his equals or by the law of the land.

The barons ensured that numerous other clauses in Magna Carta defined in more detail how the justice system and its officials were to operate. These clauses sought to remedy specific abuses by the king and to make the system more consistent, accessible and fair.

Magna Carta and peace

Many of the clauses towards the end of Magna Carta were practical arrangements for making peace. Rather than looking forward to how the king was to behave in the future, these clauses sought to put right the wrongs done by King John.

The king was immediately to return all hostages, to remove all foreign knights and mercenaries from England, to remit all fines exacted unjustly, and to restore lands, castles and liberties to all who had been wrongfully deprived of them. These clauses were not statements of legal principle, but they were a part of the peace-making process.

All the others are not true as King John had no choice at all.

Perhaps the most radical clause in Magna Carta was the 61st, which set up an elected commission of 25 barons to monitor the king’s compliance with the settlement and to enforce its terms. The 25 barons had the power to seize the king’s property in order to seek redress if he failed to keep the terms imposed on him. This innovative clause demonstrated the power invested in Magna Carta to limit royal authority

Do you agree with Sintoni's argument about the Vietnam war? Explain.
Tema [17]

Answer:

Yes, I agree with the argument of Sintoni's about the Vietnam war.

Explanation:

"Vietnam is a test of the American Spirit", these were the lines written by Sintoni in his last letter to his wife. Every war will be fought with not only weapons but also with the help of spirit. Spirit means courage, if you have a courage no one can defeat you in any war but if you have no courage you will lose the war even with advance weapons. So if the American has that spirit, we will win this war.
