James Madison proposed the U.S. Bill of Rights. It largely responded to the Constitution's influential opponents, including prominent Founding Fathers, who argued that the Constitution should not be ratified because it failed to protect the basic principles of human liberty.

That is false. Congress does not need the help of the president. In fact, the President has no authority to regulate trade, only Congress does.
Causes of the Boxer Rebellion: During the Qing Dynasty, the United States and Europe exerted formidable economic, political and religious influence in China. China had also been intimidated into granting trading rights to the United States and Europe after several military defeats at the hands of the Western powers. It had also been forced to allow entry of foreign Christian missionaries. The Chinese were resentful of the Western influences and the control that the Western powers had over them economically. By the late 1890's a secret group which the Westerners called the Boxers emerged. They blamed their poverty and poor living conditions on the Western nations that were given territorial and commercial rights by the Qing Dynasty. The Boxers began to attack Christian missionaries and Chinese Christians, destroyed churches and other foreign properties. The Qing Empress declared war on all foreign countries with diplomatic ties to China. Diplomats, their families and guards had a hard time repelling the Boxers. Several hundred foreigners and several thousand Chinese Christians were killed during this time.
The Effect: Around 20,000 troops were sent by the Western Nations and Japan to rescue the Christian missionaries, foreigners and Chinese Christians. The Boxer rebellion finally ended one year and almost three months after it began. The Boxer Protocol was signed on September 7, 1901. Under the terms, China had to destroy their forts that protected Beijing and the Boxer and Chinese officials who took part in the rebellion were punished. The Western nations were allowed to maintain troops in Beijing to protect their citizens and China was not allowed to purchase weapons for two years. China agreed to pay $330 million in war reparations (although these were later returned by the foreign countries involved with specific instructions for their use).
Answer:
Noble class
Explanation:
Historically, in medieval Europe, the system that was in use was the feudal system and it had three distinct social classes which were:
- A king
- A noble class
- Peasant class
I would like to be part of the noble class which includes nobles, priests, and princes. The noble class rented out their lands to peasants and the King was the one who owned all lands but gave out lands to his nobles for their use.
Being a king would sound like a tempting proposition but personally, I do not think I am cut out for being a King and ruling over a kingdom, so being a noble is the next best thing because I'm just part of the ruling class who rules over the commoners. Moreso, the word 'nobility' in medieval Europe also included members of the society who were in leadership positions because of their wealth, political position or specialized training.
