Answer:
Byzantine empire and trade.
Explanation:
The East survived a thousand years after the fall of the Roman Empire as the Byzantine Empire began to emerge. Constantinople became the capital city of the Roman Empire until the Byzantium Empire came in existence in 324 AD. The East survived for thousands of years until it conquered by the Turks in 1453. The geographical condition helped the East Empire to survive. The region provided a harbour and surrounded by the sea which offered a natural defence from invaders. Trade flourished which provided wealth and goods to the East Empire.
D.a political system with all economic and political power resting in the hands of the central government
The Constitution was written with the preamble coming in first to explain why they wrote it and stuff.
The articles come next, and they lay out how the government will work (like what powers each branch has, etc.)
The federalists believed that this was enough, but the anti-federalists pressured them into adopting a bill of rights (the first 10 amendments) to ensure that the rights of the people would not be taken away. The amendments are changes to the Constitution and come last. Credit to Brainly user
That looks like General Pierre (I don't know his full name) who is often known as being a Confederate General.
He was born somewhere south around Louisiana and went to West point and became an engineer. He first went in the history books by serving under General Whitfield in the Mexican war as of course, an engineer. He rose up in the ranks and became chief engineer. He then worked at West point and also an engineer for a railroad and eventually help drain parts of swamps in Louisiana.
But he later became a General in the Civil war.
Note: This is really the best I can do since I don't know too much about him.
<span>Although it is a source of debate among historians, some say the election of 1828, which pitted President John Quincy Adams against Andrew Jackson, marked the beginning of the modern political arena in the United States. It permanently established a two-party electoral system and decisively established democracy. It also marked an expansion of the electorate, with almost 10 percent of Americans casting their votes in the election, which was more than double the number who voted in 1824</span>
