Answer:

The Florida Declaration of Rights is more up-to-date than the US Constitution, so it includes more.

Explanation:

The Constitution is a formally written document that contains the set of laws and principles that we live by in the United States of America. Thus, it guarantees certain rights to the federal government and the states such as right to taxation, regulate interstate commerce, declare war, borrow money, provide for the military forces, etc.

Basically, the Constitution accords powers to the national or federal government and these includes; enumerated or delegated, reflected, and concurrent powers.

The Florida constitution is simply referred to as a fundamental legal document that governs the state of Florida, United States of America. It comprises twelve (12) Articles and establishes power, duties, structure, basic laws and fundamental functions of the government of Florida.

On the 5th of November, 1965, the current (sixth) constitution of Florida was adopted and it has been amended 144 times by its government.

The Declaration of Rights, which is quite similar to the U.S Bill of Rights forms the beginning of the constitution of Florida while having twenty-seven (27) sections.

The most likely reason the Florida Declaration of Rights has twenty-seven (27) sections, while the Bill of Rights has only ten amendments is because the Florida Declaration of Rights is more up-to-date than the US Constitution, so it includes more.

The U.S Bill of Rights was proposed by the U.S Congress on the 25th of September, 1789 and was eventually ratified on the 15th of December, 1791 by three-fourths of the legislature to become part of the Constitution of the United States of America.

The U.S Bill of Rights was inspired by the English Bill of Rights (1689) and it is also known as the first ten amendments to the Constitution of the United States of America.

When it came to the foreign policies, the United States were not really pleasant towards the rest of the world. Besides the somewhat imperialistic policies that they had displayed, they fought others in terms of economy and migration. There were numerous laws introduced that prevented people form foreign countries from immigrating which wasn't liked by the other countries, while high tariffs made sure that exporting goods to the US was very difficult which was also problematic for various foreign countries.
