Answer:

The Maya, Aztec, and Inca all worshipped multiple gods.

Explanation:

  • The Inca religion was born out of respect for the forces of nature. The ancient Peruvians worshiped the spirits of nature and creatures such as jaguars, snakes, and condors. They also used their religion to unify the large population of their empire. The main god of the Incas was the Inti, the Sun. He was the Provider of Life and the protector of the Inca people. The Inti brought them warmth and light. When it fell in the ocean each evening at sunset, the villagers were frightened that the sun could not swim under the Earth to reappear the next morning in the East.
  • The whole life of the Mayans is inspired by religion, hence the state organization is theocratic.The Mayas worshiped the forces of nature, their main gods were: Hunab Ku (the creator), Lord of the heavens and god of the day. Itzamná (son of Hunab Ku). Chac (god of rain, and fertility of agriculture). Ah Puch (god of death). Yun Kaax (god of corn)
  • Much of Aztec life and culture was determined by religious beliefs. A powerful priestly caste was responsible for organizing ritual ceremonies, directing education centers and making predictions about various aspects of society and the politics of the empire. The Aztecs adopted the religious beliefs of the neighboring and subdued peoples. Their religion was polytheistic, although a few main deities predominated. The most important Aztec gods were related to the solar and agricultural sky. One of the most characteristic aspects of religion was the practice of sacrifices. The shedding of blood, by the priests themselves or by the immolated, animal or human victims and the offering of hearts.

Why did political leaders blame the Article of Confederation for economic condition?
iragen [17]

Answer:

The Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union Is the Answer

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union was an agreement among the 13 original states of the United States of America that served as its first constitution.[1] It was approved, after much debate (between July 1776 and November 1777), by the Second Continental Congress on November 15, 1777, and sent to the states for ratification. The Articles of Confederation came into force on March 1, 1781, after being ratified by all 13 states. A guiding principle of the Articles was to preserve the independence and sovereignty of the states. The weak central government established by the Articles received only those powers which the former colonies had recognized as belonging to king and parliament.[2]

The document provided clearly written rules for how the states' "league of friendship" would be organized. During the ratification process, the Congress looked to the Articles for guidance as it conducted business, directing the war effort, conducting diplomacy with foreign states, addressing territorial issues and dealing with Native American relations. Little changed politically once the Articles of Confederation went into effect, as ratification did little more than legalize what the Continental Congress had been doing. That body was renamed the Congress of the Confederation; but most Americans continued to call it the Continental Congress, since its organization remained the same.[2]

As the Confederation Congress attempted to govern the continually growing American states, delegates discovered that the limitations placed upon the central government rendered it ineffective at doing so. As the government's weaknesses became apparent, especially after Shays' Rebellion, some prominent political thinkers in the fledgling union began asking for changes to the Articles. Their hope was to create a stronger government. Initially, some states met to deal with their trade and economic problems. However, as more states became interested in meeting to change the Articles, a meeting was set in Philadelphia on May 25, 1787. This became the Constitutional Convention. It was quickly agreed that changes would not work, and instead the entire Articles needed to be replaced.[3] On March 4, 1789, the government under the Articles was replaced with the federal government under the Constitution.[4] The new Constitution provided for a much stronger federal government by establishing a chief executive (the President), courts, and taxing powers.
