It depends on where they come from. However, I am sure you are talking about the hired German soldiers, which were known as Hessians. Hessians were well-trained, highly-experienced German soldiers that were hired to fight against the colonists during the American War of Independence.

strojnjashka [21]

The law of eminent domain derives from the so-called "Takings Clause" of the Fifth Amendment, which states, "[N]or shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation." The men who created the Constitution were, for the most part, landholders with a certain mistrust of government power.

Is the power to provide for the countries defense delegated reserved or shared?
LenKa [72]

Delegated

Federal Government Powers

The powers that the Constitution specifically gives to the federal government are called delegated powers. For example, only the federal government can coin money. Only the federal government has the power to control trade with foreign nations. The federal government alone has the power to provide for the country's defense because an attack on the United States could threaten all Americans. (You may recall that under the Articles of Confederation, the federal government did not exclusively hold these important powers. The Constitution delegated these powers solely to the federal government in order to strengthen it.)

State Government Powers

The U.S. Constitution leaves several important powers to the states, allowing them to manage their own affairs. The states or the people have all the powers that the Constitution does not specifically give to the federal government. These powers are known as reserved powers because they are reserved, or set aside, for the states or the people. The state governments, for example, conduct elections, regulate trade within the states and establish local governments.

Shared Powers

The federal and state governments also share many powers. These powers are known as concurrent powers. For example, both the federal and state governments can raise funds through taxation. Both also have the power to borrow money. Moreover, they share the power to establish courts, to charter banks, to enforce laws and punish lawbreakers, and to provide for the health and welfare of the American people.
