President Theodore Roosevelt privately wrote to journalist William Allen White, expressing doubts about the accuracy of Sinclair's claims. After reading The Jungle, Roosevelt agreed with some of Sinclair's conclusions. The president wrote that "radical measures must be taken to put an end to the efforts of arrogant and selfish greed on the part of the capitalist." After this the president ordered to investigate some meat packing facilities.
Upon hearing of the visit, the owners made their workers thoroughly clean the factories before the inspection. In any case, many of the statements that were portrayed in the novel could be verified. That year, the Animal Industry Office issued a report rejecting Sinclair's most severe allegations, characterizing them as "intentionally misleading and false."
All this resulted in the approval of the Meat Inspection Law and the Pure Food and Drug Law; the latter established the Office of Chemistry (in 1930 it was renamed the Food and Drug Administration).

I believe the answer is: Politicians and government are inspired by them today. We both believe in equality and elections.
The main difference between the democratic system that with held today and the athenian democracy lied within the representation.

The British colonization of the Americas (including colonization by both the English and the Scots) began in 1607 in Jamestown, Virginia, and reached its peak when colonies had been established throughout the Americas. The English, and later the British, were among the most important colonizers of the Americas, and their American empire came to rival the Spanish American colonies in military and economic might.
Three types of colonies were established in the English overseas possessions in America of the 17th century and continued into the British Empire at the height of its power in the 17th century. These were charter colonies, proprietary colonies, and royal colonies. A group of 13 British American colonies collectively broke from the British Empire in the 1770s through a successful revolution, establishing the modern United States. After the end of the Napoleonic Wars (1803–15), the remaining British territories in North America were slowly granted more responsible government. In 1838 the Durham Report recommended full responsible government for Canada, but this was not fully implemented for another decade. Eventually, with the Confederation of Canada, the Canadian colonies were granted significant autonomy and became a self-governing Dominion in 1867. Other colonies in the Americas followed at a much slower pace. In this way, two countries in North America, ten in the Caribbean, and one in South America have received their independence from Great Britain or the later United Kingdom. All of these, except the United States, are members of the Commonwealth of Nations and nine are Commonwealth realms. The eight current British overseas territories in the Americas have varying degrees of self-government.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Blackstone's works helped the American colonists understand their rights according to English common law because Blackstone made those laws approachable. The Americans fought a revolution, won, and then found themselves faced with the task of actually doing what they had wanted: building their own government.
