The correct answer is A. To explain why rights were being reserved for citizens rather than the government.
Indeed, the context of the Bill of Rights was that the articles of Confederation that were used to regulate relations between the states were insufficient as the federal government that was supposed to enforce them was actually weakened by them. The Philadelphia Convention was organized to fix these articles but it was finally decided that they would be replaced with the Constitution. However, the great fear of Anti-Federalists was that such Constitution would give too much power to the President and thus it had to be counterbalanced by strong Individual rights for American Citizens. Thus, this particular Fifth Amendment was intended to establish several constitutional rights and judicial protections for American citizens such as:
- The Right to be judged by a Grand Jury of one’s peers.
- The Infamous crime clause.
- The Double Jeopardy Clause (right not to be tried twice for the same offense).
- The Right not to be forced self-incriminate legally.
- The Due Process Clause (right not to be arrested, prosecuted or incarcerated without valid legal justification and trial).
- The Takings Clause (the right not to be dispossessed of one’s property arbitrarily or without proper monetary compensation).
The words technology and compass are similar in that they both refer to
tools which have at some point been absolutely necessary for the
advancement of human beings, be that through needing to sail the seas in
order to discover new land or launch a rocket into space to discover
new planets.

Answer: The battle which Taiping led against the government was Rebellion.
Explanation: Massive rebellion or civil war that was waged in China from 1850 to 1864 between the established Qing dynasty and the theocratic Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
U.S. intervention in Puerto Rico and Cuba during the Spanish-American War established the U.S. as the dominant power in those countries, altering the paths of their respective independence movements. Critics accused the U.S. of acting in its own interests while ignoring the wishes of Cuban and Puerto Rican people. This cartoon, published in a Boston newspaper, depicts Uncle Sam as a smug diner pondering which country to consume first, as U.S. President William McKinley waits on him.
