Imagine you are a colonist around 16 years old in the time period leading up to the Revolution.

History

Answer:

Of course i would be a patriot

Explanation:

As a proud 16 year old patriot, a primary reason i would use to convince others to join me is the fact that the British rule is unjust and tyrannical. The constant taxation and new laws are cruel to the colonists. On top of that, war comes and as a patriot I get to fight on my home land, so i have the advantage of fighting on familiar turf. My fighting spirit is stronger too, knowing that I am fighting for my rights and freedoms rather than fighting for a ruler. Additionally, I have great ports for trade in the north and plenty of prolific land to cultivate for future economic sustainability for generations to come in the south.

I hope I was able to convince you to become a patriot as well :)

To protect individual rights, the Anti-Federalists wanted to add a bill of rights to the Constitution.

While Federalists supported the Constitution,<u> Anti-Federalists were against the ratification of the Constitution since they believed that this document gave too much power to the central government</u>, which posed a risk to the individual liberty. In order to protect the individual rights, Anti-Federalists wanted to add a Bill of Rights to the Constitution, even though Federalists did not think that this was necessary. However, <u>the Bill of Rights, which was inspired by the Virginia Declaration of Rights, was finally approved in Congress in 1789</u>.

Why do you think the Aztecs allowed some conquered peoples to govern themselves with relatively little interference?
Sati [7]
The Aztecs demanded that a tribute in goods be paid to them, after they conquered a specific land. As long as the tribute was paid (which ensured their financial position), it was beneficial for them if the conquered people didn't revolt (too much), and if they didn't need to extend funds and infrastructure to govern them- that way they could pay little and maximize their gain. It was practical to reinstall the old rulers in the conquered lands, if they were sure of their loyalty, as it would minimize conflict and need for intervention (such as sending a lot of people into the new land) and maximize their profit.
