History

Cerrena [4.2K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

One reason Jefferson wanted to purchase the Louisiana Territory is for future expansion.

Explanation:

Jefferson had read about the Northwest Passage, a way to link the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean and thus a secured trade route. As it was at the time most of the territory west of the colonies was still controlled by the Native Americans as well as it being undeveloped, going was very slow for explorers. Having access to the Mississippi River would change so much for trade routes and Jefferson was forward thinking in knowing that securing the Mississippi River would change trade prospects in the new United States.

The key reason for the creation of law courts during the early development of the English common law was the necessity of King Henry II to unify the country. He wanted to eliminate arbitrariness and some illegal practices, so he decided to send his judges to hear the disputes throughout the country. The verdict was recorded in a file called precedent.

Answer:

Explanation:

Here are the four sentences as required:

While colonists influenced the government of England through ideologies (such as the idea that government should have limited powers on people, granting them the rights to life, liberty and property), people nowadays can influence the U.S. government via political parties that provide people with alternative approaches on how a government should be run.

Over time, representative government led by a Prime Minister came to control and replace the king as the main source of power in England, and nowadays, people can influence the U.S. government via elections, where citizens have the power to vote for their leaders.

Another form in which England was influenced is with the idea of the rule of law: both government and the ones governed  must obey the law that limits the  powers of government and, this idea also influenced today's U.S government in that people can rely on laws that are publicly issued, equally enforced, and independently adjudicated.

Another form of influence is that, in 1258, the nobles forced the King  John to create a Parliament, that is, the legislative branch of the English  government which, in turn, has two houses that divided power and, so does the current U.S government by dividing his powers in three bran
