  • Puritanism a religious tradition that developed in America which eventually influenced the people to start the American Revolution. Puritanism defended that families should be the center of society, which eventually led to the widespread of patriarchal households with high fertility. This eventually led to the development of towns with a strong sense of community, since the town represented a family that should be taken care of. Puritanism also influenced the government since it influenced the formation of a local government that was run by town meetings. Another very important element of Puritanism was the “predestination” sentiment, which eventually led to Manifest Destiny.
  • Enlightenment also influenced American society, it was an 18th-century movement that started in Europe but influenced Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, Thomas Paine, and Benjamin Franklin. It separated religion from the government and questioned the answers that the Bible had for several natural phenomenons. The Enlightenment influenced people to get more educated and learn about science so it could improve their lives, which eventually led to the rise of Isaac Newton and John Locke. John Locke influenced the Founding Fathers especially when he spoke about the natural rights that every human must have - life, liberty, and property -. These rights were in the Declaration of Independence and in the US Constitution which shaped the American society to this day.

Explanation:

The wave of exploration that began with Columbus’ voyage in 1492 didn’t take long to reach the land that is now Texas. Spain’s conquest of the Americas began on a series of islands in what is now the Caribbean Sea. New colonial cities on those islands soon became hubs for exploration of the mainland. By 1519, exploration had turned to conquest in what is now Mexico, when Hernán Cortés landed on the Yucatán peninsula then pushed inland to the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan.

What degree did foreign influence impact the social, religious, and economic development of two of the following African regions
Leokris [45]

Answer:

  • South Africa is known for its diversity of cultures, languages ​​and religious beliefs, which is why it is known as the rainbow nation. Eleven languages ​​are recognized as official by the Constitution of South Africa. Two of the eleven languages ​​are of European origin: Afrikaans, a language that comes directly from Dutch and is spoken by the majority of the white and mestizo population, and English. Although English plays an important role in public and commercial life, it is, however, the fifth language by native speakers. South Africa is an ethnically diverse country. 79.5% of the South African population is black, which is divided into different ethnic groups that speak different Bantu languages, nine of which are official. It also has the largest communities of inhabitants of European and Indian origin, as well as multiracial communities on the continent.
  • West Africa is one of the first regions of the planet where the native cultivation of certain plants began, so the beginning of Neolithic cultures in the region is around 5000 BC. C. (almost two millennia after the estimated date for the Nile Valley). Nok culture is one of the main prehistoric cultures of West Africa. What happened later during the protohistoric period in West Africa would have a decisive influence on the demographic, historical and cultural configuration of sub-Saharan Africa, since the Bantu expansion that occurred in most of Africa originated from the historical developments of Africa Western. During the European Middle Ages in West Africa there were several centralized states and empires, some of which maintained active commercial relations especially with the Muslim world. Among the most notable states of this period in West Africa are the Empire of Ghana (s. VIII-XI), the Empire of Mali (s. XIII-XVII), the Jolof Empire (s. XIV-XVI) and the Songhay Empire (s. XIV-XVI).

Which of the following BEST summarizes the overall disagreement between the federalist and anti-federalists?
ivolga24 [154]

You didn't provide us with choices, so I'll simply provide some historical explanation.  The main issue was whether the Constitution needed a Bill of Rights added.

The Articles of Confederation, in place prior to the ratification of the Constitution of the United States of America, had granted stronger authority to the states.  Patrick Henry and other Anti-Federalists were concerned about too much power winding up in the hands of the federal government and its executive branch, thus allowing a small number of national elites to control the affairs of the USA.  They feared this also would diminish the rights and freedoms of individual citizens.

Federalists believed the Constitution itself clearly limited government power and protected the rights of the people.  Nevertheless, the addition of a Bill of Rights, laid out in the first ten amendments to the Constitution, provided  reassurance to Anti-Federalists in the fight over ratification.  The compromise which led to agreement in regard to ratification of the Constitution was called the Massachusetts Compromise, because of major opposition to ratification that had existed in Massachusetts.  John Hancock and Samuel Adams (both of them anti-Federalists) were the ones who helped negotiate the compromise. The anti-Federalists agreed that they would support ratification of the Constitution, with the understanding that recommendations for amendments would follow if the Constitution was ratified.  The Federalists promised to support the proposed amendments, which would outline a Bill of Rights to guarantee protection of specific rights the anti-Federalists wanted specifically asserted in the Constitution.  

The US Constitution was ratified in 1788.  The Bill of Rights was created in 1789 and ratified in 1791.
