The answer is D.

William Patterson’s “New Jersey Plan” supported giving each state and equal amount of votes. Instead of the plan we use today which states that each state has the same number of senators and different numbers of congressmen (House of Representatives) based on the population of each state.

The reason why smaller states approved of this plan is because if each state has an equal amount of representatives, then the smaller states will be equal to states that have larger population. This plan is similar to The Articles to the Confederation. Which we know was not successful. Fortunately, people did not support this plan because they believed that this plan would make the national government they wanted weak.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:  D

Explanation: Although you could argue it was C. None of these are the real reason why.

summarize two conflicts that took place in the Middle East after 1990. Identify the name of the conflict and the main countries
Anastasy [175]

The first conflict that took place in the Middle East after 1990 was the Persian Gulf War. The second conflict was known as Operation Desert Storm, which took place in 1991.

The Persian Gulf War war began in 1991 when Iraq invaded Kuwait and was quickly followed by a coalition of countries led by the United States and Saudi Arabia that drove out the Iraqi army from Kuwait. The war is considered one of the most important events in modern history, as it set off a series of events that have been called "the second wave" of globalization.

The Operation Desert Storm conflict was fought between Iraq and an alliance of Western countries that included Great Britain, France, Australia, Germany, Italy and others. In addition to fighting a war against Iraq, these countries also deployed troops to Saudi Arabia to enforce sanctions against Iraq's economy.

What threats did Europeans face after the fall of the Roman Empire
Vesna [10]
When the western Roman empire collapsed in 476 AD, the unifying force for most of Europe was gone. Along with the loss of the government, much of the engineering abilities and "modern amenities" were also lost. The "barbarians" of Europe did not, for the most part, have the abilities or knowledge to build roads, aqueducts or the other marvels of the Roman Empire, which is why the period immediately after Rome's collapse is often referred to as the "Dark Ages".

The only unifying force of any sort left would be Constantine's Roman Catholic church, which did manage to preserve some of the knowledge and vestiges of the empire. As the only thing left really, it became the main power in the European world throughout the Middle Ages, functioning almost as an imperial government until Luther set off the Reformation in 1546.
