Oil-based economy refers to the world's dependency on petroleum, natural gas and coal for energy. Electricity, diesel fuel, gasoline and kerosene are only some of the commodities that are provided by oil. However, there are negative effects of the processing to the environment. Combustion of oil by cars yield sulfur oxides, nitric oxides and carbon dioxide that participate in ozone depletion and global warming. Therefore, the more-developed nations are working on better technologies to harness renewable energy for sustainability. These energy refer to solar, hydropower, wind, and tidal resources. As of now, there are problems on the cost of developing and perfecting these technologies to maximize the energy source. Unfortunately, if the world shifts to the clean energy-economy, the less developed countries would have to catch up a great deal. These equipment are quite expensive, so for a time-being, only the more developed countries would participate and earn from it.
here's your answer dear friend❤❤❤
1. The first president under the Constitution, George Washington, in his Farewell Address warned against forming political parties, but his immediate successors didn't listen. John Adams (Federalist) and Thomas Jefferson (Democratic-Republican) fought bitter contests in 1796 (Adams won) and 1800 (Jefferson won). It is the natural instinct of politicians to align with like-minded individuals and want to govern based on ideology rather than to just solve problems one-by-one as they arise. Because the first time two people had a discussion about politics and decided to cooperate toward common goals, in effect the first political party was formed. That’s all a party is.
2. The federalists believed in a strong central government and its proactive involvement in commerce. In general, the federalists were elitists who opposed measures to democratize American politics. In the realm of international relations, federalists were admirers of Great Britain and detractors of the French.
3. Christianity is the most widely professed religion in the Dominican Republic. Historically, Catholicism dominated the religious practices of the country, and as the official state religion it receives financial support from the government. In modern times Protestant and non-Christian groups, such as Muslims and Jews, have experienced a population boom.

This is the answer of your question .
First maybe we should define what a "regular and fair" election is. Regular would mean that elections happen at regular intervals or according to a stated policy. In other words, a government can't call off or postpone elections in order to preserve its hold on power. "Fair" would mean all citizens have equal rights to participate in the democratic process. That will mean civil liberties such as the freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, etc, will be maintained.
Voting systems and ballot types used vary across the United States, but all systems and ballot types will be aiming to accomplish the same thing. There are voter registration processes. Absentee ballots and early voting options are often available. Polling places are announced for each precinct of voters and sufficient voting hours are made available to give ample opportunities to all voters to participate. For the process to be fully democratic, we want to do all we can to include every voter's ballot in the tally of votes.
How are elections won? Well, in most cases a plurality of votes cast is enough to win. In other words, you may not get a majority (above 50%), but if you have more votes than any other candidate you are still the winner. Sometimes run-off elections are held if no candidate gets a majority of votes -- that typically happens in primary contests to seek a party's nomination as candidate for a particular office.
In the case of the US presidency, there is also the added layer of the Electoral College, which was a check-and-balance put in by our nation's founders against something they feared could happen by a "tyranny of the majority." (I'll let you look up that term on your own.)
