<span>The colonists at Jamestown, the second English colony in what would later become the United States, faced a slew of fatal problems. A prolonged drought that made growing food crops and finding fresh water difficult led to starvation and the drinking of contaminated water, which, along with the swampy area’s plentiful mosquitoes, contributed to the spread of deadly diseases. The settlers also faced conflict with the indigenous people, poor leadership in their own community, the extreme heat and cold of Virginia’s climate, and the fact that they were, overall, woefully unprepared to survive in such harsh conditions.</span>

How does federalism limit the power of government in the United States?
vichka [17]

Federalism limits the power of government in the United States through the creation of two sovereign powers: the national government and state governments. In this way, it regulates the influence these have. Separation of powers establishes internal limits; it divides government against itself, giving separate functions to different branches and compelling them to share power, so neither of them becomes predominant.

By separating powers, these are split among the executive (president, vice president, Cabinet), legislative (Congress, House of Representatives and Senate), and judicial branches (Supreme Court and other courts), which are definite departments of American national government.

Minchanka [31]

The Zimmerman Note was a note sent from Germany to Mexico asking Mexico to align itself with German interests. If the US entered the war and if Mexico opposed the US, the reward would be Arizona California and one other state -- perhaps Texas. It was a major contributor to the declaration of war on Germany by America.

The sinking of the Lusitania was another major event. When the Lusitania was sunk, 2000 people were affected.

Submarine warfare really aggravated the US. Many merchant ships were sunk.
