Answer:
Anthony Ashley Cooper oversaw Locke's drafting of the Fundamental Constitutions of Carolina during the first decade of the Restoration, a time when the failure of the Commonwealth of England was fresh in mind.
Religious Tolerance
The Fundamental Constitution of Carolina colony residents freedom of religion. This religious tolerance attracted a diverse group of settlers, including French Huguenots, Sephardic Jews, German and Swiss Lutherans, Quakers and Baptists. South Carolina had one of the largest African American populations in the colonies, many of whom retained their traditional religious beliefs. The 97th provision of the Fundamental Constitution dictated that religious disagreements were not legitimate grounds to expel or mistreat a group of people in the Province of Carolina .
Acceptance of Slavery
The Fundamental Constitution applied only to free people. It recognized the rights of the slaveholders but not the rights of the slaves. The 110th provision of the Constitution indicated an overall approval of slavery when it declared, “Every freeman of Carolina shall have absolute power and authority over his negro slaves.”
Rights of Defendants
The Fundamental Constitution provided explicitly stated rights for those who were on trial for serious criminal offenses. Its 64th provision banned the practice of double jeopardy, the practice of trying a defendant twice in a single court. For those under trial for murder or any other offense punishable by death, the constitution provided for a special commission to assemble “twice a year at least” to judge these cases and provide the possibility of appealing them.
Recognition of Landed Nobility
The Fundamental Constitution of Carolina created a society ruled by the landed nobility class in Carolina. The two major ranks of the landed nobility were landgraves and caciques. Landgraves were recognized as the superior rank with double the land of caciques. Both ranks enjoyed legal privileges, as the Constitution stated, “No landgrave or cacique shall be tried for any criminal cause in any but the chief justice's court, and that by a jury of his peers.”
Answer:
4. China Generated Wealth and Developed Economically. Silk and porcelain were the two bestselling products over the centuries of the Silk Road trade. Silk was the most valuable export on the Silk Road since it was light, easy to transport, and was said to be worth its weight in gold during the Roman era.
Explanation:
Silk is a fabric first produced in Neolithic China from the filaments of the cocoon of the silk worm. It became a staple source of income for small farmers and, as weaving techniques improved, the reputation of Chinese silk spread so that it became highly desired across the empires of the ancient world. As China's most important export for much of its history, the material gave its name to the great trading network the Silk Road, which connected East Asia to Europe, India, and Africa. Not only used to make fine clothes, silk was used for fans, wall hangings, banners, and as a popular alternative to paper for writers and artists.
Origins & Cultivation
Silk is produced by silk worms (Bombyx mori) to form the cocoon within which the larvae develop. A single specimen is capable of producing a 0.025 mm thick thread over 900 metres (3,000 ft) long. Several such filaments are then twisted together to make a thread thick enough to be used to weave material. Fabrics were created using looms, and treadle-operated versions appear in, for example, the murals in tombs of the Han dynasty (206 BCE - 220 CE). The silk could be dyed and painted using such minerals and natural materials as cinnabar, red ochre, powdered silver, powdered clam shells, and indigo and other inks extracted from vegetable matter.
Well it depends on what you are talking about.
