<span>On July 4, 1776 the original declaration of Independence was signed by only two people, Charles Thomson as Secretary and John Hancock as President of the Continental Congress. The original signed Declaration of Independence was then taken to John Dunlap, a Philadelphia printer. John Dunlap printed 500 Hancock/Thomson "typed signed" Broadsides which were distributed to the members of Congress and the King of England. The original Declaration of Independence that was actually signed by Thomson and Hancock, however, was lost in the fever of Freedom. On August 2, 1776 the delegates returned to Philadelphia to sign a newly prepared Declaration of Independence and for some known reason Thomson was not invited to sign. 56 people signed total.</span>

joja [24]

The four phases of modernization proposed by economist Walt Rostow in 1960 are:

"Pre-condition": or need for an improvement in the way a particular activity is being done in society.

The "pre-condition takes off": Efforts targeted to assess this need start, including the production of raw materials and knowledge developments.

"Take-off": Knowledge previously created during the latter phase is diffused and adopted by the masses.

"Maturity": The development has reached a peak where it is common knowledge and the impact over society has already occurred.

kari74 [83]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The reasons why Napoleon might have had for selling the Louisiana Territory to the United States could have been the following.

Experts agree on two basic reasons for French Emperor Napoleon decided to sell the huge Louisiana territory to the United States. The first reason, France needed a lot of money. It had deep debts as a result of many wars. Secondly, the Lousiana territory was immense and was too far away from France, so it was very difficult to defend.

These circumstances were an advantage to President Thomas Jefferson, who sent James Madison to help Robert Livingston (the Minister to France) in order to accelerate the negotiations to close the Louisiana Purchase in 1803.
