When the framers designed the US Constitution they did not give the Federal government much power so power was balanced between States and Central Government. But the Federal government has gained more and more power over time. At the same time, the States were restricted over the years, when the Framers did not imagine doing so.

Both of these situations can be good or bad. For example, making the States respect the Bill of Rights was a good thing when individuals had their basic rights stripped on a State level. So making only the Federal government respect the Bill of Rights did not make much sense.

At the same time, the Federal Government has shown much power that was not designed and showed a few issues over the years, especially with the Executive Branch that had in a few opportunities overstepped its powers.

How did Northern interests present problems for the Reconstruction efforts?

tatuchka [14]

Northerners had many politicians that didn't essentially care about reconstruction or African-Americans. They just went south to get into positions of power because the political area was open for newcomers since the old politicians in the South were the racists who led to the war. As they weren't that interested, the ideas of democracy soon ended and the policy of separate but equal was established which still enabled racism and segregation only in a legal manner.

What brought britain and the united states to the brink of war in 1837?

Naddika [18.5K]

The correct answer is the Canadian Rebellion

It was an event in 1837 in which the Lower and Upper Canada had a series of rebellions against Britain because of the way they were treated as colonies. This brought them on the Brink of war with the United States for various reasons, mostly about Britain controlling areas on the New World and the fact that Canada didn't look the same as it does today.
