Answer:
Congress's power to override the President's veto forms a “balance” between the branches on the lawmaking power. ... Congress can override a veto by passing the act by a two-thirds vote in both the House and the Senate. (Usually an act is passed with a simple majority.)
Explanation:
<span>Madison didn’t originate the idea of checks and balances for limiting government power, but he helped push it farther than anyone else before or since. Previous political thinkers, citing British experience, had talked about checks and balances with a monarch in the mix, but Madison helped apply the principle to a republic. Contrary to such respected thinkers as Baron de Montesquieu, Madison insisted checks and balances could help protect liberty in a large republic.
AMONG the numerous advantages promised by a well constructed Union, none deserves to be more accurately developed than its tendency to break and control the violence of faction. The friend of popular governments never finds himself so much alarmed for their character and fate, as when he contemplates their propensity to this dangerous vice. He will not fail, therefore, to set a due value on any plan which, without violating the principles to which he is attached, provides a proper cure for it. The instability, injustice, and confusion introduced into the public councils, have, in truth, been the mortal diseases under which popular governments have everywhere perished; as they continue to be the favorite and fruitful topics from which the adversaries to liberty derive their most specious declamations. The valuable improvements made by the American constitutions on the popular models, both ancient and modern, cannot certainly be too much admired; but it would be an unwarrantable partiality, to contend that they have as effectually obviated the danger on this side, as was wished and expected. Complaints are everywhere heard from our most considerate and virtuous citizens, equally the friends of public and private faith, and of public and personal liberty, that our governments are too unstable, that the public good is disregarded in the conflicts of rival parties, and that measures are too often decided, not according to the rules of justice and the rights of the minor party, but by the superior force of an interested and overbearing majority. However anxiously we may wish that these complaints had no foundation, the evidence, of known facts will not permit us to deny that they are in some degree true. It will be found, indeed, on a candid review of our situation, that some of the distresses under which we labor have been erroneously charged on the operation of our governments; but it will be found, at the same time, that other causes will not alone account for many of our heaviest misfortunes; and, particularly, for that prevailing and increasing distrust of public engagements, and alarm for private rights, which are echoed from one end of the continent to the other. These must be chiefly, if not wholly, effects of the unsteadiness and injustice with which a factious spirit has tainted our public administrations.</span>
Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is presented in the attached figure.
Answer:
The common characteristics of these countries can be attributed to their history of colonization by a european country.
Explanation:
The table shown in the figure below shows three American countries that were colonized by the same European country, Spain. This caused these countries to present several similarities that go beyond culture, but even affect the religion and language that these countries present.
Hope this helps

Politically: Lincoln tried preserving the Union, so the South decided to secede and this led to war.
• The most unfortunate political consequence of the Civil War was Abraham Lincoln's death.
- Lincoln also issued the Emancipation Proclamation. It went into effect on January 1, 1863, and declared, "that all persons held as slaves" in states that rebelled "are, and henceforward shall be free." the proclamation changed the focus of the war
Economic consequences:
- , the Southern economy was in ruins. Much of the war had been fought in the South
- foreign nations that once bought Southern cotton began to produce their own. As a result, post-war cotton prices plunged dramatically
- Just like in the South, a large percentage of Union soldiers went home with injuries that prevented them from working
- Buildings, railroad lines, and family farms destroyed in the war needed to be rebuilt. The nation as a whole needed to be reconstructed
Social consequences:
- The Civil War allowed African Americans to make progress in society.
- Following the Emancipation Proclamation, many free African Americans joined the Union army
- The population was reduced as a result of war casualties. Farms and homes had been destroyed.
