The power of Congress that allows them to declare war is <u>Number 11</u>.

It gives them the right to declare war, grant letters of marque and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The United States Congress has declared war 11 times since its creation against:

  • England in 1812;
  • Mexico in 1846;
  • Spain in 1898;
  • Germany in 1917 during the First World War;
  • Japan, Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, Hungary, and Romania between 1941 and 1942 during the Second World War.

Generally, it was the President of the United States as the chief of the armies, who asks the Congress for authorization to declare war. The President can ask them to support the continuation of military operations during the conflict as well. It was particularly the case during the Vietnam War and the Gulf War.

Another list of 18 powers of the Congress which contains other points concerning the war, such as:

12: Raise and support armies.

13: Provide and maintain a navy.

14: Make rules for the government and regulation of the land and naval forces.

15: Provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrection and repel invasions.

16: Provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining the militia.

The Glorious Revolution was caused by:
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Correct answer is: concerns about Catholic succession.

Explanation:

Concerns about Catholic succession is the correct answer as England was ruled by the Catholic Stuart dynasty, and when the last one of them was overthrown ( James II ), William of Orange and his wife Mary, who were Protestants, were brought to the throne.

British taxation of the American colonies is not correct, because this led to American Revolution.

The application of reason to questions of politics was the popular idea, mostly spread by philosophers of Enlightenment, but it didn't led to Glorious Revolution.

A growing intellectual curiosity and knowledge from Muslim scholars has no connections with Revolution whatsoever. It is typical for some medieval Muslim Empires.
