Answer:

Yes, the declaration of independence will still be relevant in 244 years.

Explanation:

Ok, so it has already been around for 244 years (1776 - 2020).

<h2>What was it for? </h2>

It was to declare independence from the British empire.

<h2>Why is it still relevant today?</h2>

The Declaration of independence is still relevant today, and will be for the next 244 years. This is because it is a cornerstone of our constitution today, and it will never go away unless the US is gone (unlikely). It basically says; No taxation without representation.  This still echo's through today, we still have congress. Many other countries have borrowed sections of our government and chunks of the Declaration of Independence are important to peoples of other countries such as Liberia, Malaysia, and more.

Why was the idea of ‘collective security’ unlikely to be successful for the League of Nations? (c type question)
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The idea of collective security failed to keep the peace between 1920 and 1935 due to the fact that the league was unable to act against the larger powers due to its lack of support, and the depression.

Explanation:

They cited the failure of the United States of America to join the League from the start and the rise of the Soviet Union outside the League as one of the major reasons why the League failed as instrument for the development and enforcement of collective security.

Why was the United States military surprised by the Tet Offensive?
erica [24]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>The Tet Offensive had an early attack, which caught people off guard.</em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>So as we know, The Tet Offensive was a major military offensive launched by the army of North Vietnam against the United States and the South Vietnamese Army during the holiday of Tet during 1968.  The purpose of the offensive was to strike military and civilian command and control centers throughout South Vietnam and to spark a general uprising among the population that would then topple the Saigon government, thus ending the war in a single blow. So both North and South Vietnam announced on national radio broadcasts that there would be a two-day cease-fire during the holiday. </em>This early attack did not, however, cause undue alarm or lead to widespread allied defensive measures. When the main Viet Cong operation began the next morning, the offensive was countrywide in scope and well coordinated, with more than 80,000 communist troops striking more than 100 towns and cities, including 36 of 44 provincial capitals, five of the six autonomous cities, 72 of 245 district towns, and the national capital.

How was the issue of slavery addressed in the U.S. Constitution?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Answering the question "How was the issue of slavery addressed in the U.S Constitution" is a little tricky because the words "slave" or "slavery" were not used in the original Constitution, and the word "slavery" is very hard to find even in the current Constitution. However, the issues of the rights of enslaved people, its related trade and practice, in general, have been addressed in several places of the Constitution; namely, Article I, Articles IV and V and the 13th Amendment, which was added to the Constitution nearly 80 years after the signing of the original document. However, slavery had been tacitly protected in the original Constitution through clauses such as the Three-Fifths Compromise, in which three-fifths of the slave population was counted for representation in the United States House of Representatives.

Explanation:

When the Constitution was made in 1787, slavery was a powerful institution and such a heated topic at the Constitutional Convention. The majority of disagreements came when the representatives from slave-holding states felt their "peculiar" institution was being threatened. James Madison, the Father of the Constitution and a slave owner, opposed the pro-slavery delegates and went on to say it would be, "wrong to admit in the Constitution the idea that there could be property in men." He didn't believe that slavery should be justified by federal law. Once the Constitution was ratified, slavery was never mentioned by name. Shouldn't this be obvious support that the Constitution did not support slavery? Not exactly.
