What principles of the U.S. government originated in Athenian democracy?

History
1 answer:
Vitek1552 [10]4 years ago
7 0

Our Founders realized that the Athenian form of democracy was impractical in large nations. They took the idea of democracy and came up with "representative democracy." Under this system, citizens elect representatives to make these decisions for them. It's for this reasons we have elections through which we elect our leaders.

Thus America is a constitutional republic and not a democracy as such.

Why was slavery a contradictory issue<br> in Jeffersons life
artcher [175]

Answer:

Because Jefferson was actually against slavery. Even while he owned slaves, it sickened him. however Jefferson as in some of his writings, feared that unless given a direction Slaves would not be productive members of society as they would not, and that due to their lack of education would rebel against their previous owners even thouh they became free.

Jefrerson battles with the idea of freeing slaves and the idea of the consequences of freeing the slaves giving them nothing and having come from nothing. to him it would have been just as bad to free them with nothing to stand on as opposed to keeping them in their current state until something better could be arranged for them.

Which phrase was not an achievement of the government of Chandragupta Maurya's empire? formed a highly organized bureaucracy bui
dezoksy [38]

The correct answer is expanded into southern India to control trade routes

Explanation: Chandragupta had a true empire that stretched from the Indus to the Ganges, dominated the delta of these two rivers, and was supported by a mighty army. The administrative organization seems to have been well undertaken, overseen by imperial inspectors, and facilitated by the good state of the roads which the sovereign had taken great care of. It was no longer a question for Seleucus to despise the alliance of such a powerful monarch: he left his territories beyond the Indus and bestowed on her the hand of a Greek princess. From that moment on, India entered the orbit of the great empires of time; its capital, situated in Pataliputra or Magadha, was for many decades the center of a Greek embassy which Ambassador Magastenio illustrated, and whose information is precious, though secondhand.
