In a republic, people choose representatives to govern for them.

History

Answer: True

Explanation:

Republics practice the principle of "Representative Democracy". This means that power is held by the people but there is an acknowledgement that the people cannot be expected to vote on every single issue the country faces as this would be almost impossible.

The people will therefore vote a person to represent their interests and that person will then make decisions on their behalf. This is the way things are in most countries of the world today including the U.S. when you vote in Senators, Congressmen, Governors and Presidents.

What happened in 1803 that nearly doubled the size of the United States?
goblinko [34]

Correct answer:  A. President Jefferson purchased the Louisiana Territory from France.

Explanation:  

Initially, President Thomas Jefferson had commissioned James Monroe and Robert Livingston to negotiate a deal with France to acquire New Orleans or all or part of Florida, as a means of avoiding the potential of an armed conflict in such areas. Monroe and Livingston were authorized to spend up to $10 million.  What they found out was that Napoleon was already set to sell a much wider range of territory to the United States, to finance his European wars.  Napoleon was asking $22 million for the whole territory that became the Louisiana Purchase.  The US team negotiated the price down to $15 million.  The deal with France was made in 1803.

Then, however, there was a constitutional crisis back home.  Did the President have the authority under the constitution to make such a major addition to the nation's territory and spend the nation's funds to do so? Ultimately, Jefferson was convinced by his Cabinet members and sent the measure to Congress for approval.  In a statement he made at the time, Jefferson justified the purchase with this analogy:  "“It is the case of a guardian, investing the money of his ward in purchasing an important adjacent territory; and saying to him when of age, I did this for your good."
