Answer:

Magna Carta, English Great Charter, charter of English liberties granted by King John on June 15, 1215, under threat of civil war and reissued, with alterations, in 1216, 1217, and 1225. By declaring the sovereign to be subject to the rule of law and documenting the liberties held by “free men,” the Magna Carta provided the foundation for individual rights in Anglo-American jurisprudence.

By 1905, there was a total of about ____ miles of paved roads in America. ?
bixtya [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

By 1905, there was a total of about 144 miles of paved roads in America.

The evolution of the roads in the United States can be traced back to the colonial times when all of the roads were made of natural surfaces to allow wagons passed without further complications. In 1806, the federal government started the construction of the Cumberland Road, the most ambitious governmental project of that time: from Maryland to West Virginia. From this time to the 1920s, it was the federal government that supported road construction projects because the states were not so invested in doing so. The first interstate highways were built between 19530 and 150, such as the Merrit Parkway in Connecticut.
