The 6 key elements of Magna Carta are described according to specific clause. These include the following: 
a. The first clause of Magna Carta guarantees the freedom of the English Church. This implies separation of church and government, so there will be no inclusion of church in politics or vice versa. 
b. Clause 13,  the city of London shall enjoy all its ancient liberties and free customs, both by land and by water. As an example, they have the right to choose its own mayor -- political freedom.
c. Clause 39, established the idea that people could only be judged according to the law, and that even the king himself had to follow the law. It stipulates that a person should be judged by a group of their equals (not by the king or his men). The same concept that someone isn't convicted unless found guilty on the court. 
d. Clause 40: “To no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or justice.” It ensures that nobody will be deprived of their rights, or have to pay for their rights, or be made to suffer by waiting for their rights. This should be a constant reminder for politicians or ay government body nowadays as well as for the future.
e. Clause 12, the king could not demand new taxes without first obtaining the approval of the key people in his kingdom. A country can get indecency using this clause, by not being under the control of other countries.  
f. Clause 61, the barons the right form a committee who would monitor the king and take action against him if he failed to honor his agreement to them and to the freemen of his kingdom. This is still existent nowadays as there are different bodies of the government, in which they must go hand in hand to do what is rightful.

Use the library, encyclopedia, and Internet to research and then write a 750 word report on one of the following topics:
Naddika [18.5K]

During the 19th century, America had a strong reluctance to become involved in other countries alliances and affairs. Isolationists in America argued that the US had a different philosophy than European countries and the US should defend freedom and democracy by not being involved in such things.

During the Spanish-American War, the US remained isolated and the country fought the war without alliances and without fighting in Europe. But the mindset started to change since the motto of freedom and democracy was substituted by the US bringing an empire in the Caribbean and in the Pacific - the US had influence in the Phillippines, Puerto Rico and Guam -.

President Roosevelt had the big stick policy, he believed that the US should export its values and become a global power. At the same time, he defended that the US should avoid conflicts. President Roosevelt ended the isolationism in the US and started the modern American philosophy of acting aggressively in foreign affairs even without the support of the Congress.

Why do historians needs to be careful about being unbiased when presenting historical information
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

The problem is they don't. One day you will take a history class that talks about Hiroshima or the Holocaust. They were both tragedies of a kind that is almost impossible to record with no bias.

But what would happen if you read the history from another point of view. Suppose, which I don't think has been done in any school in North America, you were to read about Hiroshima from the point of view of the Japanese. What have they said about it? What will they teach their children? What is the folklore about it from their point of view? Undoubtedly their best historians will record it without bias, but will be the same as what we read? I'm not entirely sure.

That does not answer your question, but I have grave doubts that it is possible. Personal bias always comes into everything. I will say this about your question: we must do our best to present the facts in an unbiased manner. That's important because we need to have a true picture of what happened. Many times it is because historians don't want humanity committing the same errors as the events they are trying to make sense of.

So far we have not dropped an atomic weapon on anyone else. But there have been holocausts after the European one. What have we learned? That six million is a number beyond our understanding, and we have not grasped the enormity of the crime, bias or no bias.
