Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which of the following events took place during Jefferson´s term in office, would be: C: He increased the power of the Supreme Court.

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson assumed the presidency for the first time in 1801, and did not end his office until 1809, as he was reelected for second term. Jefferson was one of the main figureheads of the Democratic-Republican Party and some of his beliefs on equality among white men were highly criticized by some of this fellow Founding Fathers, particularly because they upended certain basic principles of the new nation. Among those beliefs he had were the need to cut the power of the federal government, and to that end, he cut back on military spending, and reduced the size of the government. What was most iconic during his term in office, however was that for the first time in history, the Supreme Court interfered in the way that the government worked and through the ruling in the court case <em>Marbury vs. Madison, </em>judicial review of Congress acts was established. It was the first time that the Supreme Court declared itself as the rightful interpreter of the Constitution, and not Congress and repealed an act of Congress. In 1802, furthermore, Jefferson pushed through Congress the Judiciary Act, which upended the Judiciary Act proposed by earlier president John Adams, in 1801.

I would say Creon.

Hubris refers to excessive pride and self-confidence, which Creon exhibits in abundance. He put himself above gods, and his own civil laws above religious laws, which sparked the entire tragedy in this play. If it weren't for his hubris, then Antigone wouldn't have had to fight for her brother's righteous funeral, and everybody would still be alive. But then this wouldn't be a famous tragedy.

The assignment wants to know how you would write a story based on a historical period of your choice. As I cannot know which period you prefer, I cannot write your answer, but I will help you to write it.

<h3>Steps to present an effective story</h3>

Enter the historical period of interest to you.
Show what makes this period interesting and why it would be important to your story.
Show the context of your story.
Show how the main character is important to this story.
Show the location and conflicts that the story would present.
Show why your readers would be interested.

You can search for important historical moments to identify one that sparks your interest. You must research this period to promote historically correct ideas, even if your story is fiction.

Here is an example of what your answer should look like:

<em>My story would take place at the time of colonization when European pilgrims settled in America and had to dispute territory with the indigenous people. In this story, my main character would be an indigenous hero, who would organize a resistance group in his tribe, to fight the Europeans and protect his people from exploitation and extermination. The story's conflict would be established between the Indians and the Europeans and the story would have many scenes of struggle and action. I believe that this story would be interesting for the reader because we know little from the indigenous point of view since what happened in this period was told by Europeans.</em>
