The Articles of Confederation but many restrictions on the federal government. Congress couldn't tax the states so they couldn't make much money. Also, there wasn't a national court. <span />

worty [1.4K]

The correct responses:

b. The Colonies have all the power of any other independent nation.  

e. The Colonies are declaring independence.


Historical context/detail:

The quoted section comes from the <em>Declaration of Independence </em>(1776), which was written on behalf of the American colonies by Thomas Jeffersons.  In preparing the <em>Declaration of Independence,</em> Jefferson and the American patriots were asserting their right to govern themselves and throw off the government of the British monarchy.   The American founding fathers got ideas like this from the Enlightenment philosopher John Locke. According to Locke's view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed. Locke argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting their own life, liberty, and property.  This also meant the right to change a government if the existing government did not protect those rights.

In the<em> Declaration of Independence,</em> Thomas Jefferson offered a list of "facts to be submitted to a candid world" to demonstrate that the British king had been seeking to establish "an absolute Tyranny over these States" (the colonial states which were declaring their independence). Revolution was justified, in the view taken by the colonists, if it could be shown that the British government was acting in tyrannical ways toward the colonies.

How did britain and france emerge from wwi as both victors and losers
Romashka [77]

Great Britain and France were both winners and losers of the World War I. These two nations were winners because at the end they were on the side that won the war. Because of that they were also able to constrain their main enemy, and managed to have some benefits. But they were also losers in the war. This was because both of them had lot of damage in their infrastructure especially France. Both lost of lot soldiers which weakened them in a military sense, and both had huge economic losses and very fragile economies afterward. That eventually led to gradual loss of their power over their colonies, and after the World War II they lost them as they were where not able to control them anymore after the damage they had at home.
