Answer: b) “The purpose of government is to protect the individual liberties of its citizens.”

Explanation:

According to John Locke, he only reason that people give up certain rights to the government is so that the government can protect their liberties as well as their properties and lives. This represents a social contract.

If the government is unable to do this then they have broken the social contract and can be recalled by the citizens of the country who will then put in another government that should be able to take care of them.

Why was the tenth amendment enacted?​
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

The final of the 10 amendments that constitute the Bill of Rights, the Tenth Amendment was inserted into the Constitution largely to relieve tension and to assuage the fears of states’ rights advocates, who believed that the newly adopted Constitution would enable the federal government to run roughshod over the states and their citizens. While the Federalists, who advocated a strong central government, had in that respect prevailed with the ratification of the Constitution, it was essential to the integrity of the document and to the stability of the fledgling country to acknowledge the interests of the Anti-Federalists, such as Patrick Henry, who had unsuccessfully opposed the strong central government created by the Constitution.

Law of brotherhood

The death penalty was so common, that in the First Court, the Fountain of Execution was erected, where the executioner and his assistant washed their bloody hands after cutting their heads at the victims.

Explanation:

  • Since the mid-15th century, the "law of brotherhood" written by Muhammed II was in force in the Ottoman Empire. It was a "rulebook" outlining the terms of power. A brother who would gain the throne killed all other brothers and sisters, which was considered not only permissible but desirable, because it partly prevented the risk of rebellion and civil war.
  • Although not always enforced, Muhammed's law led to the deaths of more than 80 Ottomans of "blue blood" over a 150-year period.
  • The fountain was the most frightening symbol of the power the sultan had over his subjects.
