The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1868, guaranteed "equal protection of the laws" to all citizens, including former slaves, and granted citizenship to anyone born or naturalized in the country.
<h3><u>The 14th Amendment is what?</u></h3>
One of the Reconstruction Amendments, the Fourteenth Amendment (Amendment XIV) to the United States Constitution was ratified on July 9, 1868. It addresses citizenship rights and equal protection under the law, and it was proposed in response to problems involving former slaves after the American Civil War.
It is frequently regarded as one of the most significant amendments. The states of the defeated Confederacy, which were compelled to ratify the amendment in order to regain representation in Congress, fiercely opposed it.
The amendment, and especially its first section, is one of the most contentious parts of the Constitution, serving as the foundation for important Supreme Court rulings on issues like racial segregation in schools in Brown v. Board of Education (1954), abortion in Roe v. Wade (1973) (which will be overturned in 2022), the 2000 presidential election in Bush v. Gore (2000), and same-sex marriage in Obergefell v. Hodges (2015).

Answer: D is correct
Explanation: A is not correct because English rule in Normandy ended already in Middle Ages, B is not correct because American revolution preceded the French revolution, C is not correct because "Enlightenment" was an international cultural movement that transcended political events. The end of French revolution is not always clear. Some put it in 1804, some in 1814 or 1815. But Latinamerican emancipatory movement inspired by the French revolution started long before 1814-15.
Answer:
First-past-the-post
Explanation:
The single candidate voting method that prevails by far is A first-past-the-post (also called "plural", "relative majority", or "winner takes all"), in which each voter votes on a choice, and the choice that receives the most votes wins, even if it receives less than the majority of votes combined.
This sort of system tends to quickly create favorites and concentrate the options so the votes "won't be lost" during the election by trying to elect a candidate that is less known (many candidates are prematurely dropped for the perceived notion of "not-standing-a-change" against bigger parties).
Neolithic, also known as the New Stone Age, was a time period roughly from 9000 BC to 5000 BC, it was the last period of the age before wood working began. The tools available were made from natural materials including bone, antler, hide, stone, wood, grasses, animal fibers, and the use of water. These tools were used by people to cut such as the hand axe, chopper, adze, and Celt.
The Copper Age is the early part of the Bronze Age. Copper came into use before 5,000 BC and bronze around 3,100 BC, although the times vary by region. Copper and bronze were used for the same types of tools as stone such as axes and chisels, but the new, less brittle, more durable material cut better. Bronze was cast into desired shapes and if damaged could be recast. A new tool developed in the copper age is the saw.
The earliest large-scale buildings for which evidence survives have been found in ancient Mesopotamia. The smaller dwellings only survive in traces of foundations, but the later civilizations built very sizable structures in the forms of palaces, temples and ziggurats and took particular care to build them out of materials that last, which has ensured that very considerable parts have remained intact. Major technical achievement is evidenced by the construction of great cities such as Uruk and Ur. The Ziggurat of Ur is an outstanding building of the period, despite major reconstruction work.
