When the Monroe Doctrine was written, the US had just formed and was not ready to fight the European powers. Monroe basically asked Europe to stay out of the Western Hemisphere because they were afraid of getting attacked.

The creator, James Monroe, was interested in keeping the United States out of a war it was not prepared for. Though it was out of fear, there was some thinking through; people voted on it, after all.

Note that by "afraid of getting attacked," I not only mean getting attacked through soldiers and cannons but also by taking over nearby areas and competing with the US for natural resources.

Which of the following is an example of the idea of "separation of powers" in the American constitutional system?
hodyreva [135]

<em>B. The process for creating laws involves Congress and the president.</em>

Explanation:

The idea of "<em>separation of powers</em>" is very important and creates balance within the American constitutional system. Since all of the branches are equal in power, this means they check each other and prevent one another from abusing their power.

There are three branches in the United States government, legislative, executive, and judicial.

~The legislative branch is responsible for making the laws.

~The executive branch carries out these laws.

~The judicial branch will then interpret these laws.

Along with this, the legislative branch consists of the Senate and the House of Representatives, which together form Congress. The President resides within the executive branch, along with the Vice President and the Cabinet. The judicial branch holds the Supreme Court and other federal courts.

The Great Sioux War of 1876, also known as the Black Hills War, was a series of battles and negotiations which occurred between 1876 and 1877 between the Lakota, Sioux, and Northern Cheyenne and the government of the United States. The cause of the war was the desire of the U.S. government to obtain ownership of the Black Hills. Gold had been discovered in the Black Hills, settlers began to encroach onto Native American lands, and the Sioux and Cheyenne refused to cede ownership to the U.S. Traditionally, the United States military and historians place the Lakota at the center of the story, especially given their numbers, but some Indians believe the Cheyenne were the primary target of the U.S. campaign.[5]

Among the many battles and skirmishes of the war was the Battle of the Little Bighorn, often known as Custer's Last Stand, the most storied of the many encounters between the U.S. army and mounted Plains Indians. That Indian victory notwithstanding, the U.S. leveraged national resources to force the Indians to surrender, primarily by attacking and destroying their encampments and property. The Great Sioux War took place under the presidencies of Ulysses S. Grant and Rutherford B. Hayes. The Agreement of 1877 (19 Stat. 254, enacted February 28, 1877) officially annexed Sioux land and permanently established Indian reservations.
