The correct answer is A) They could make requests of the king without fear of getting into trouble for it.

"That it is the right of the subjects to petition the king, and all commitments and prosecutions for such petitioning are illegal."

This quote from the English Bill of Rights would have influenced the American colonists to think that "They could make requests of the king without fear of getting into trouble for it."

Indeed, the English Bill of Rights inspired the founding fathers of the United States in writing the Bill of Rights for the new nation, as was the case of James Madison, the drafter of the US Bill of Rights.

American people during colonial times were angry and desperate for the heavy taxation imposed by the King of England. So they felt they had the right to voice out their opinions and demand better treatment to Great Britain. The colonists had to pay taxes but did not have a voice or representation in the British Parliament. And this issue was a major cause for the beginning of the Revolutionary War of Independence.

GenaCL600 [577]

The President in the executive branch can veto a law, but the legislative branch can override that veto with enough votes. The executive branch can declare Executive Orders, which are like proclamations that carry the force of law, but the judicial branch can declare those acts unconstitutional.

Identify ONE way that the images show how the role of the Catholic Church in Western Europe changed during the period from 1200
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Hello. You did not put the image necessary for this question to be answered, but I can help you by saying that the role of the church changed between 1200 - 1450 CE through the loss of influence in relation to the rise of the bourgeois class.

Explanation:

In 1200 the church had great power and influence in absolutely all sectors and elements of society. The church dictated the political, scientific, social, artist and economic construction of its region. The church was a powerful institution, dictating and delimiting all the composition of society, but that power was lost over time and with the rise of the new social class called "bourgeoisie".

In 1450 the bourgeoisie was already established in Europe. Many bourgeois practices went against concepts practiced by the Catholic church, which caused the church's power to diminish, its influence to be lost and religious reforms to be stimulated.

What was one consequence of Roman expansion beginning in 300 BCE?
Digiron [165]
Between 500 BC and 300 BC, the Republic saw its territory expand from central Italy to the entire Mediterranean world. In the next century, Rome grew to dominate North Africa, the Iberian Peninsula, Greece, and what is now southern France. During the last two centuries of the Roman Republic, it grew to dominate the rest of modern France, as well as much of the east.

The precise event which signalled the end of the Roman Republic and the transition into the Roman Empire is a matter of interpretation. Towards the end of the period a selection of Roman leaders came to so dominate the political arena that they exceeded the limitations of the Republic as a matter of course. Historians have variously proposed the appointment of Julius Caesar as perpetual dictator in 44 BC, the defeat of Mark Antony at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC, and the Roman Senate's grant of extraordinary powers to Octavian (Augustus) under the first settlement in 27 BC, as candidates for the defining pivotal event ending the Republic.

Many of Rome's legal and legislative structures can still be observed throughout Europe and the rest of the world by modern nation state and international organisations. The Romans' Latin language has influenced grammar and vocabulary across parts of Europe and the world.
