Question

Q: One way that the English Bill of Rights differs from the American Bill of Rights is that _____.

Answer 1

Answer:

A: the American version intends to protect private liberties.

Explanation:

The English Bill of Rights was developed in 1689 after the Glorious Revolution. This Bill of Rights gave certain provisions like limiting the power of the monarchy and focusing more on a constitutional monarchy. In short, it focuses more on the government and limiting the rights and power of the monarch.

The American Bill of Rights, on the other hand, was created a whole decade later, in 1789. While it takes inspiration from the English Bill of Rights, the American version focuses more on individual rights rather than as a whole government.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
