Answer: E. weakness of a federal system
Explanation:
This is a weakness of the Federal system of government because it shows what happens when states have to become reliant on the federal government to carry out projects.
If there was no federal system, states would be more reliant on their own selves and would embark on their own projects. This means that Texas would have found a way to maintain those bridges without waiting for federal help.

<u>QUESTION 8</u>
The movement did have an impact because there is no more segregation anymore. So now people of all colors can be in the same table and classroom together. But there is still room for improvement.

QUESTION 9
The 1960's were a tumultuous time in United States history. The sixties saw the rise of the Civil Rights movement that sought for equality and social reform for Americans of African descent. Also taking place in the 1960's were the Vietnam war, riots, poverty, antiwar protests, the "generation gap" and political assassinations.
These events and issues can be paralleled with today's American society through the continuation of rioting and protests, the continuation of extreme poverty, a technology induced generation gap (between Generation X, Millenials, and Baby Boomers who had nowhere near as much access to technology and information), and the continuance of Women's, African Americans, Latinos/Latinas, & other peoples of color's struggle to achieve racial equality and justice in a society created for and by Caucasian men.
If anything that has happened throughout history its that the people need to be represented through government. Like the american revolution. Also ww2 when the satellite states for Russia wanted independence. Or Gandhi's peaceful revolution. They all show that people wont stay repressed. They show that people are willing to stand up to their governments so they can have leaders who represent them to their best interests.
Answer:
Important causes of the French Revolution were social causes, political causes and financial difficulties.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, France was ruled by an absolute government. The king had all the political power. Louis XIV and the kings who came after him were despots. Unlike rulers such as Frederick the Great of Prussia, they were not lightened despots. For example, anyone who criticized the government could be arrested and put in prison without trial. Louis XIV at least ruled this country efficiently. Last French kings were not good rulers. Louis XIV was king at the time of the French Revolution. He was more interested in hunting than governing France. He and his Austrians queen, Marie Antoinette, lived an extravagant life at the Palace of Versailles. They did not really care about the state of their country. The government was inefficient, unjust and corrupt. There were too many government departments, different laws in different parts of the country and officials. Many people became angry about the way France was governed. They could do nothing to change it. The French Parliament was called the Estates-General. It was made up of the First Estate- churchmen or clergy, the Second Estate- nobility, the Third Estate- commoners. The Estate- General had not met since 1614. It could not meet without consent of he king. It had no political power. .
During the 18th century, the French government spent more money than it collected in taxes. By 1788, the country was bankrupt. .
Most of the money was kept on wars. France had been at war for nearly 50 years out of the previous one hundred years. France supported the Americans in the American War of the Independence. After the war, France was in financial ruin. The Bourbon kings on palaces, entertainment and gifts to favorites also spent large sums of money. Because the government spent a lot of money, taxes were high.
