How did the u.s make their new government (articles of confederation) different than britian.

Explanation:

Articles of Confederation established the first form of constitution government to establish the powers of the new national government. Here are some of the reasons why the Articles of Confederation did not work out for the USA:

The Articles provided for a weak national government.

The Articles gave Congress no power to tax or regulate trade among the states.

The Articles provided for no common currency.

The Artices provided for no executive or judicial branches of government.

The Articles gave each state one vote regardless of size.

The weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation led to many problems in the United States. Edit

The lack of federal judicial branch led to many land disputes between the states.

Congress did not have the power to collect taxes; therefore, they could not raise enough revenue to pay the Continental Army. This weakness led Spain and Great Britain to take advantage of the USA.

Finance was a serious issue. The more money was printed, therefore decreasing the value which leads to inflation. Profiteers try to get money out of the Revolutionary War by taking a well-wanted object and raking up the price. This is a nasty cycle, causing the economy to collapse. This affects the military, in which about 1783, they conspire to take over the Congress. George Washington was absolutely livid with his officers!

Borders, reduction of trade, states arguing over boundaries and debt were issues also included.

Shey's Rebellion was the last straw for Americans. Many realized the Articles of Confederation was not working for the new country. In the Summer of 1786, Captain Daniel Shays at age 39 leads a rebellion after the government comes after his land after he is unable to pay the crazily high state taxes. They could not pay the taxes because they have not been paid. He attacks debtor prisoners which house soldiers who couldn't pay their taxes. The congress of Massachusetts attempts to garner an army to fight the rebellion but no one showed up for the fight. The Massachusetts militia had to come and break it up.

Although not very important, some accomplishments were met Edit

They won the Revolutionary War and established a type of governance for the Western Territory. They establish two good ordinances that benefit the country.

Land Ordinance of 1785: Lays out a grid system to survey the land west of the Appalachians (Louisiana, Indiana, Ohio, etc.). Inside each township, one plot of land should be reserved for public education. This must be away from the churches/places of worship, representing the policy of separation of church and state. Selling land can be used as a way of making money.

Northwest Ordinance of 1787: 1. Congress will practically govern the area by appointing governors and judges; 2. If 5,000 adult males are residing in the territory, the voters can agree on a temporary constitution and appoint a legislature; 3. When the population reaches 60,000 votes, they're able to ratify the state constitution. Congress will approve and therefore, statehood will be granted. Though, in each of these statehood constitutions, slavery was prohibited.

discuss social class by elaborating on the tensions between the classes that arise from societal division. Does social class hin

NARA [144]

In class societies, people are sorted into hierarchical social categories, such as class, using concepts in the social sciences and political theory centered on models of social stratification. People have typically divided into three distinct social classes: the upper class, the middle class, and the lower class.

When the upper and middle-class live in urban regions, they become oblivious to the lives of people from the lower classes.

On top of that, you will find that middle and upper-class citizens tend to misuse their rights, as they believe in the power of money. As a result, there is an increase in social inequality and animosity among the population.

For the rich and upper-middle-class, their attitude changes and they begin to be proud of their lives and look down on others, thus contributing to greater levels of societal hunger and division.

Social classes impede social development.

Education Children grow with the notion of school division in which upper-class and middle-class children attend private schools, and lower-class students attend public schools that have lessened infrastructure and administration.

Even from class differences, those in the upper and middle classes are more likely to have more freedom in their job pursuits, while those in the lower class feel neglected in society and as a result have lowered morale to their full potential.

People in the lower socioeconomic brackets tend to experience higher rates of diseases caused by many of their co-workers working in unhealthy environments, and as a result, they are prone to poor health. Poor medical attention is sought by the bottom while upper and middle-class individuals are able to take care of their health.

On the lower end of the socioeconomic ladder, people are affected by stress and financial pressure, which increases the risk of mental illness. Middle and upper-class individuals, on the other hand, are more fortunate and less stressed, which keeps the risk of mental illness low. This increased crime as a result.
