The Athenian democracy was a direct-rule government, where an assembly of citizens would meet to debate and decide al matters of government: spending, war declarations, treaties. 
The American government is republic in the form of a representative democracy. In the United States, we elect representatives to the legislative branch: the US Congress.  The representatives do all of debating and deciding on matters affecting the nation.  The US Congress is a bicameral legislature, which means there are two houses: a lower chamber called the House of Representatives and an upper house called the Senate.  The House of Representatives is large, composed of 435 members. Seats are apportioned to districts based on population size.  The districts do not cross state lines.  The Senate is composed of 100 members, 2 per state.  Originally, senators were appointed by a states governor or legislature.  Since the passage of the 17th amendment to the US Constitution, however, senators are now directly elected by US citizens.

Were there successful acts of resistance and consolidations of liberty that stand out as important? Were there equally important
Marina CMI [18]

There have been successful acts of resistance and consolidations of liberty in America since its foundation as the thirteen English colonies.

The first act of resistance that consolidated liberty was the American Revolution. It wrestled liberty from the English Monarchy and gave the Americans a voice in how government ruled. The days of <em>taxation without representation</em> came to a near end.

The Shays' Rebellion (1786 to 1787) was another landmark resistance to an oppressive government. It involved armed uprisings in Massachusetts and Worcester because of the debt crisis and continued imposition of <em>taxation without representation</em> by the Continental Government of the state. The Shays' Rebellion prompted the drafting of the Constitution of the Federal Republic with the accompanying Bill of Rights.  To date, the Bill of Rights has become the centerpiece of all resistance to the usurpation of liberty.

Lastly, the Civil Rights Movement (1954 - 1968) nailed the coffin of <em>white supremacy, black slavery, and segregation</em>. The Supreme Court backed the movement with its landmark ruling, in <em>Brown v. Board of Education</em>, that overturned <em>"the separate but equal facilities"</em> doctrine (Jim Crow obnoxious laws) that enveloped the liberty of America's people of color for many centuries.

Thus, the remaining constraints to acts of resistance include the eradication of American Nazism and the full acceptance of the principles of the Constitution, which recognized that all peoples are created equal before God.

According to the Declaration of Independence, when should the people have the right to change their government?
Alinara [238K]
The correct answer is <span>D. When the government doesn't protect their natural rights

This isn't just related to the king, but to all types of governments. The declaration states that if the government in charge, which in their case was the king but it could've been anything else, infringes upon the rights of the people, then the people need to change the government.</span>
