Answer:

Andrew Jackson was the seventh president of the United States. He served two terms in office from 1829 to 1837.

During Jackson’s presidency, the United States evolved from a republic—in which only landowners could vote—to a mass democracy, in which white men of all socioeconomic classes were enfranchised.

Jackson oversaw the Indian Removal Act, which forcibly relocated tens of thousands of Native Americans and had a devastating effect on the Native population.

Answer:

This was my rough draft, but if you want to use it made sure you change some stuff so you don't get in trouble for plagiarizing!!

(this is at least 600 words)

Explanation:

Who was the 7th president of the United States? Well it was Andrew Jackson and there's a lot more to it! Here’s some crazy things he had done and was a part of, Jackson took part in the Corrupt Election of 1824, and also created the Jacksonian Democracy, and Indian Removal Act. He also happened to be an American Soldier before becoming president, more on that later though. And these topics all happen to be the topics we’re talking about so let's get into it!

Jackson was a part of the Corrupt Election of 1824, although he did not have the majority votes he had the most, yet he still lost! This is what caused the Corrupt Bargain of 1824. That year he was running for president against John Quincy Adams, who happened to be coming in 2nd place. So how did Jackson lose? Since neither had majority votes, and they were decently close in tallies, they had to go to the house of representatives for them to choose the next president. The House of Representatives did not like Andrew Jackson as much, so most of the House of Representatives voted for John Quincy Adams. Even when Jackson had the most votes before going to the House of Representatives. In return John Quincy Adam gave the Head of the House of Representatives a job at the White house, as President. This is what created the Corrupt Bargain. This angered Andrew Jackson and at the next election he went full out, including saying how he had been an American soldier, so he could get more votes. And it ended up working and he became president for the next two terms. To be more specific he served from March 4th 1829 through March 4th 1837.

In 1825 Andrew Jackson created the Jacksonian Democracy and ended up making it last about 30 years! The Jacksonian Democracy was built on the principles of expanded suffrage, Manifest Destiny, Patronage, strict constructionism, and laissez-faire economics. He created the expanded suffrage which caused people to have more voting rights. This also caused that none of the states when entering the Union required white men to have property if they wanted to vote. And By the Civil war none of the states except one had property requirements. There was also a patronage, also known as the spoils system where the President can choose the people he works around in the government. If he wanted someone to have the job, and if they wanted the job. They got the job. Jackson also preferred a hands off approach to the economy which also was part of the opposition of the Federal bank. There was slight good, regarding the not so great. Jackson did not have very much education, although Elites with education were still favors, Jackson did not really care.

In 1830, Andrew Jackson created the Indian Removal Act, also known as the Trail of Tears. Most white Americans supported this act because it gave many Southerners the chance to expand more. Many Indians were forced to go to lands that Americans choose for them, and make the Natives leave the places they were living. A few of the Indian tribes had gone peacefully, but since they were being forced to leave many resisted the recolonization. It took the fall and winter of 1838 and 1839, and approximately 4,000 Cherokees died during this forced recolonization.

In the end, Andrew Jackson had done many things for this country. This included participating in The Corrupt Bargain of 1824, creating the Jacksonian Democracy, and creating the Indian removal act.

What happens to a movement after a leader dies

Katarina [22]

Answer:Political observers see a dictator’s death in office as a catalyst for political change — either creating an opening for political liberalization or triggering elite infighting and instability. So what happened in Uzbekistan, where President Islam Karimov, age 78, died on Sept. 2?

Karimov had led the country with a “ruthlessly authoritarian approach” since independence in 1991. Despite attempts to guard information about his health like a “state secret,” rumors that Karimov was gravely ill had surfaced several weeks before his death. These rumors sparked a flurry of commentary on the country’s future.

But two months after Karimov’s death, Uzbekistan’s political system remains intact. Power passed seamlessly to Prime Minister Shavkat Mirziyoyev, who is serving as interim president until elections on Dec. 4 make his position official. Although the transition bucked the constitutionally established guidelines (power should have passed to the Senate chairman), Karimov’s passing has been remarkably unremarkable.

Uzbekistan had the same president for 25 years. What happens now?

Is Uzbekistan’s experience typical?

We looked at what happens when an autocrat dies in office

In a new piece in the Journal of Democracy, we find that Uzbekistan’s experience is broadly representative of what happens when dictators die in office. We looked at data on all 79 autocratic leaders who died in office of natural causes from 1946 to 2012 (using data from here and here).

Like Karimov, most autocrats resist identifying a successor out of fear that doing so might enable a competitor to establish a base of support that could be mobilized to unseat them early. Moreover, autocrats who die in office tend to be longtime occupiers of their position. They have tenures lasting an average of 16 years, compared to just seven years for leaders who leave power through means other than death. This longevity in office enables these leaders to portray themselves as indispensable to the political system.

For these reasons, a high degree of uncertainty about a country’s future trajectory is a common feature in countries with aging or ailing leaders, particularly in the days and weeks surrounding a leader’s passing.

However, we find that such concern is often misplaced. Death in office seldom leads to near-term liberalization. And only rarely does it precipitate coups or protests or the end of a regime.

We found that 87 percent of the time that leaders died in office, the regime — or group in power and rules for governing — remained intact the following year. And in 76 percent of cases, it was still in power five years later.

Need Help Asap). What caused the Western Roman Empire to fall? There was no single cause, and no sudden fall. Rome's decline too

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

There were a lot of reasons which caused the fall of the Roman empire. The major problems were corruption and bribe at the state level, weaken army, political instability, Christianity the religion.

Explanation:

Corruption:

Because of corruption and political instability, Roman's economy was weakening. They had to buy expensive items from the East as they had well trade with them, but now the economy had fallen and they had nothing to exchange with them, administration started making new silver coins which led to inflation, prices rose and Germanic tribes disordered the flow of trade, especially in West The western half of the empire had a large trade deficit with the eastern half. The west purchased luxury goods from the east but had nothing to offer in exchange. To make up for the lack of money, the government began producing more coins with less silver content. This led to inflation. Finally, piracy and attacks from Germanic tribes disrupted the flow of trade, especially in the west.

Political Instability:

The civil war accelerated the empire into anarchy, and more than 20 men considered the dominion to the extent of only 75 years, normally after the killing of their ancestors. The Praetorian Guard, the emperor's personal guard slaughtered and established new monarchs at wish. The political corruption also spread to the Roman Senate, which worsened to anger the surpluses of the rulers due to its own unlimited rottenness and inability. In this situation, Romans lost their trust in their emperors.

Christianity:

Christianity replaced the polytheistic Roman faith, which saw the emperor as owning a sacred rank and diverted focus from the glory of State and above the only goddess.

Weaken Army:

Roman Empire had stretched from the Atlantic Ocean to the Euphrates River located in the Middle East. With such a large administrative land, the emperors faced a lot of administrative hurdles and logistic issues. Although they had a very strong and excellent road, they had failed to have effective communication with each other. They tried to hire more troops in their army to face the local rebels and outside attacks. But due to a lack of money, they were unable to hire professionals. In the second century emperor, Hadrian was compelled to the built wall in Britain to keep the enemy at bay.
