How does the Washington Constitution define equality? In what ways does it make sure all citizens have equal rights? Write a par

seraphim [82]

The Washington constitution defines equality as treating people "without distinction or preference on account of race, color, caste, or sex."

Those concepts are often stretched to cover much more than that since the original idea is making no differentiation of citizens and their rights at all.

You can even see in Article I, Section 19 a text that says "All Elections shall be free and equal, and no power, civil or military, shall at any time interfere to prevent the free exercise of the right of suffrage."

There are other examples in Article 1 and 7 of claims for equality.

Article 7 Section 2 "The legislature shall provide by law a uniform and equal rate of assessment and taxation on all property in the state, according to its value in money, and shall prescribe such regulations by general law as shall secure a just valuation for taxation of all property, so that every person and corporation shall pay a tax in proportion to the value of his, her, or its property; Provided, that a deduction of debts from credits may be authorized: Provided, further, that the property of the United States and of the state, counties, school districts and other municipal corporations, and such other property as the legislature may by general laws provide, shall be exempt from taxation"

And Article 19 Section 1 "Equality of rights and responsibility under the law shall not be denied or abridged on account of sex."

Describe two characteristics of 15th century florance italy

MaRussiya [10]

In the 15th century, Florence, period known as the Early Renaissance, was not a city in the united country of Italy as we know it nowadays. Italy was fractioned into many city-states, each with their own kind of government; Florence was a republic in which there existed a Constitution, which mainly restricted the power of the aristocrats and made certain that no person, nor group of people could have total political control of the republic. Political power belonged in the hands of the middle-class merchants, a few wealthy families, such as the Medici family, and the influential societies. The Florentine people were very proud of their form of government, due to the fact that a republic government respects the individualisms.

Renaissance began in Florence because opulence accumulated during this period, between a growing middle and upper class of bankers and merchants. By the 15th century, Florence had fulfilled a high level of prosperity because of its important position on the main Mediterranean trade routes, and its wool industry. In the same period, Florence accomplish one of its major military tests, the effort of the Duke of Milan to bring Florence under his rule and with that to dominate Italy. The victory produced a huge upward in the Florentines civic confidence and cultural activity. It was in this cheerful climate that an extraordinary group of artists and intellectuals formed under the patronage of the Medici family; this artists began to create new ways of vision and thought, initiating with the first period of Renaissance in Italy.
