The Constitution limited the power of government and protect the rights
of citizens by instituting a "balance of power" system in which each of
the three branches of government would be unable to become too powerful
and thus tyrannical.

Marx believed that capitalism contained the seeds of its own destruction. He described how the wealth of the bourgeoisie depended on the work of the proletariat. Therefore, capitalism requires an underclass. But Marx predicted that the continued exploitation of this underclass would create great resentment. Eventually the proletariat would lead a revolution against the bourgeoisie. The final struggle would lead to the overthrow of capitalism and its supporters. Marx wrote that modern bourgeois society ,is like the sorcerer, who is no longer able to control the powers of the nether world whom he has called up by his spells.
Definition of Revolution (mention that revolutions are usually fought in order to gain freedom and peace. 2-3 sentences). Throughout history, there were many revolutions. From 1775 to 1783, there was a conflict between Great Britain and the 13 North American Colonies known as the American Revolutionary War.
Originally called the American War of Independence, the American Revolutionary War started in April 1775, when British soldiers exchanged gunfire at Lexington and Concord in Massachusetts, where many colonists were killed. Described as "the shot heard round the world," it signaled the start of the American Revolution. The colonist were already upset at Great Britain because of the increases in taxes and laws. The colonists wanted there freedom, so in April 19, 1775, the war began.
The reason why the war during the 1770s and 1780s is called the American Revolutionary War is simple. The 13 colonists, later to be known as Americans, sought for their freedom, and rebelled against Britain. They fought back, wanting a revolution in order to make this newly known land (North America) their own. They wanted to govern it without being withheld by Great Brtain. They created the Declaration of Independce and the Bill of Rights because they wanted that, hence the name: the American Revolutionary War.

Foot-binding was a practice first carried out on young girls in Tang Dynasty China to restrict their normal growth, and make their feet as small as possible. Considered an attractive quality, the effects of the process were painful and permanent.
In the 19th century, many reform-minded Chinese intellectuals began to consider foot binding as a backwardness of China and advocated to abolish the practice. However, any movements to oppose it failed. It was not until 1912 that foot binding was banned by the new Republic of China government.
