Answer:
Two of the exclusive responsibilities of the states in the United States are providing for public safety, health, welfare and regulating intrastate commerce.
Explanation:
The United States has a federal system where many of the day-to-day governing functions are under the jurisdiction of the individual states and the federal government has only certain exclusive powers like naturalization and declaring war. Exclusive powers are those powers that are reserved to either the federal government or to the individual states themselves, they are not powers they share. Concurrent powers are powers shared by the federal government and the states. Both the states and the federal government have the power to tax the citizens and to make laws as concurrent powers. Both the federal and state governments can also charter banks or borrow money.
This number would greatly increase, as there are many nations that don't have their own their own country. Some are part of a bigger country (the Tamils in India) and some are distributed among many countries (the Kurds)
Recognizing all those nations could increase some conflicts, such as that between the Kurds and Turkish in Turkey.
I think that a good definition should acknowledge that some nations have independent states and some are part of another state - the defining characteristics should be a sense of unity among the nation.
The motto of the era was “Enrich the Country and Strengthen the Military” and at the helm of this effort was Emperor Meiji.
"With Emperor Meiji’s ascension to the throne in 1867, japan theoretically restored power to the emperor, but because he was only 15 years old he had little governing power. Instead, the power rested with the new government consisting of a small, close-knit cabinet of advisers. This new cabinet immediately began implementing a series of reforms to both strengthen and unify Japan. One of their largest concerns was that Japan would not be able to regain its sovereignty if it did not modernize. With the recent display of the superior armament of the United States military with Commodore Perry in 1853, such concerns were not unfounded.
The goals of the early leaders of the Meiji era were ambitious, as they established new economic, political, and social institutions that governed Japan through World War II. The majority of these reforms were greatly influenced by the West, but they never deviated significantly from Japan’s cultural and historical roots. Perhaps most dramatically, it abolished the old system of a social hierarchy based on inherited status. For example, samurai, who historically were recognized as a warrior class, could now be farmers and engage in trade and commerce, and townspeople could now join Japan’s new army." - can be found in this article https://www.facinghistory.org/nanjing-atrocities/nation-building/meiji-period-japan
Sure, America is a superpower. However, that does not mean that is it perfect. On the outside, to the rest of the world, America is heaven. Perfect everywhere. However, on the inside, it is not perfect. In fact, it is far from perfect.
Each country has its own problems. Sure, some of them can't be solved, like a geographical issue, or a monetary issue, but not this one. Sure, other countries have issues, but not as severe as this one. The impact is greater than most people will ever experience during their life times, even after dying. But this is worse than ever before.
As a country, we can't fix this. As a group of people, we still can't. We must not separate, or discriminate, but rather unite, collaborate, and become one. Bridges are not built on one big piece, but rather multiple that come together to hold the bridge. Like a bridge's support, you can help fix this issue. It's just a matter of whether not you are able to.
