Causes of the Epidemic
Why did yellow fever decimate the French so thoroughly? First, the biological environment was ideal for a yellow fever epidemic. French had never been exposed to yellow fever. Therefore, they represented a virgin population for the disease and were predisposed to acquiring the disease. The indigenous people represented the reservoir for the disease, but were somewhat resistant to its effects because of repeated exposure. Finally, the yellow fever mosquito was plentiful in 1802 and 1803.
Second, the physical environment also was favorable for an epidemic. Spring rains provided ample mosquito breeding sites. Quagmires and swamps surrounded many of the port towns (such as Port-au-Prince). Further, the hot, humid conditions stressed the French from the moment they disembarked from the ships.
Third, as is common in war, the social environment was favorable for the outbreak of disease. As the insurgency progressed, most of the principal cities were burned. The French were unable to use the valuable resources that these towns could have provided: medical supplies, clothing, and shoes (Fick 1990). Napoleon prevented LeClerc from outposting in the mountains after his initial successes in controlling the port towns. Instead, the bulk of the army was stationed in the low lying regions of Haiti, where the mosquitoes were more onerous. It was long known that mortality from yellow fever and malaria in the Caribbean could be substantially reduced by moving troops to mountain camps (Buckley 1985). For strategic reasons, however, the troops needed to remain in the low lying port towns. info from http://www.montana.edu/historybug/napoleon/yellow-fever-haiti.html
Answer:
The correct answer is A. The US Constitution addressed the problem under the Articles of Confederation that Congress had no power to ensure its laws were followed by the states by creating an executive branch to enforce laws.
Explanation:
The Articles of the Confederation did not have a strong executive branch, but it was a Congress formed by different representatives that exercised a limited central power, while the laws emanating from it were to be enforced by the different states of the Union. This situation led to many states not complying with laws that were not favorable to their interests, which resulted in legal uncertainty that impaired the early development of the United States as a nation.
This issue, which was evidenced in situations such as the Shay's Rebellion, led the Continental Congress to reform the Articles. Finally, the creation of the Constitution of the United States established a single-person executive branch, carried out by the President, who has the function of enforcing the laws in the national territory.
