Social Studies

<u>Analysis: The power of the federal government is divided between the three branches: legislative, executive and judicial, which constitutes the "Separation of powers" in the strict sense. To avoid tyranny or despotism, the exercise of power by any of the three powers of the federal government is limited in several ways by the powers given to the other two, thus establishing the principle of limits and counterweights.</u>  For example, the legislative branch of the Congress of The United States is limited and counterbalanced by the presidential veto; and the power of the president to appoint ambassadors, federal judges, and high federal officials are limited by the constitutional requirement that those appointments obtain the consent of the Senate.

This method of separation of powers has also been carried out, within each State, in its own state constitution through the division of state governmental power among the three branches of government of the State; the creation of checks and balances between the three branches of government State, and the delegation of governmental power to two lower levels of local government, counties, and municipalities.

Which of the following was a cause of the English Civil War?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Short term causes: Charles had a very different personality compared to James. Charles was arrogant, conceited and a strong believer in the divine rights of kings. He had witnessed the damaged relationship between his father and Parliament, and considered that Parliament was entirely at fault.

Religion was a major cause of the English Civil War. It was part of a Europe wide conflict between Roman Catholicism and Protestantism. At the start of his reign (1625) King Charles I had married the Roman Catholic Henrietta Maria of France.

The English Civil Wars (1642-1651) stemmed from conflict between Charles I and Parliament over an Irish insurrection. The first war was settled with Oliver Cromwell's victory for Parliamentary forces at the 1645 Battle of Naseby.

Why did Thomas Jefferson approve the Louisiana Purchase? A. He believed that the United States should settle lands from the Atla
Lesechka [4]

The correct answer is C. He wanted to buy New Orleans and saw the opportunity to greatly expand the nation.

Jefferson saw the need to acquire New Orleans because of his fear that France would use this city as a point of support to press militarily on the American Union.

In 1763, by the treaty of Paris, France had ceded to England a part of Louisiana territory west of the Mississippi River (In the hands of the Union since its Independence) and the rest of the Louisiana Territory had ratified its cession to Spain. When Napoleon took power in France, he took control of New Orleans and in 1800 he made two actions (he took New Orleans as a base for military operations in the face of revolts in Haiti and Santo Domingo and the impediment of storing merchandise to the Americans) that Jefferson considered as a threat to national sovereignty and a risk to the Napoleonic advance.

This led him to establish negotiations to buy New Orleans from France. France initially refused but in 1803 the conditions had changed and Napoleon decided to abandon his pretensions in America and decided to concentrate his expansionist efforts in Europe, therefore he sold the entire territory of Louisiana to the American Union for a really low number.

Jefferson achieved the goal of buying New Orleans and his expectations were expanded, since from this acquisition he took courage to undertake expeditions in order to further increase the national territory.

The Congress gave a tough debate on this issue but ended up supporting the expansionist strategy of Jefferson.
