History

Answer:

So long as they remained unmarried, women could sue and be sued, write wills, serve as guardians, and act as executors of estates. These rights were a continuation of the colonial legal tradition.

Explanation:

For starters, women were only granted the right to vote in 1920. Before that, they didn't have a voice in who shaped America's laws or ran the government. They were also barred from acts as practical and simple as wearing pants or enjoying a vice, like smoking in public.

Most of the powers of government were given to the legislatures; the new state governors, for the most part, had little real aut
lisov135 [29]

The second alternative is correct (B).

Governors are elected for four-year terms, such as the president, and have the power to govern states in an executive way. Each state has its constituted rules, but governors usually have the power to veto laws that they see as inconvenient.

In short, today's governors have far more power than the first governors of US history.

Why does the electoral college system sill exist today?
Inga [223]

Answer:

Fundamentally important so that smaller states can have equal power in electing individuals to larger ones.

For example, without the electoral system, the states of Wyoming, Vermont, Alaska, North and South Dakota, Delaware, Rhode Island, Montana and more would be utterly eclipsed even if just half of California voted against their candidate.

Which factor most promoted the spread of ideas and products from the ancient river valley civilization of Egypt and Mesopotamia
Alinara [238K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The factor that most promoted the spread of ideas and products from the ancient river valley civilization of Egypt and Mesopotamia to the Greek and Roman, was trade relationships.

Trade was of the utmost importance for these civilizations because it gave them the resources to live and prosper (years later, the money or currency). Through trade, not only goods were exchanged but ideas, traditions, culture, belief systems, stories, and language. One of the best examples of this is the Pantheon of gods that started with the Sumerians in Mesopotamia, which is very alike to the Pantheon of gods of Ancient Egypt, the Indus Valley Civilization, the Greek Pantheon, and the Roman Pantheon. All of them, very similar.
