Answer:
Federalism is a mixed system of government whereby a central government and a regional government is functioning together leading to an adequate control of a particular country.
In this system, different tiers of government govern the same citizens. But each tier has its own jurisdiction in specific matters of legislation, taxation and administration with the jurisdictions specified in the constitution. It is innovative for U.S. constitution because it helps to govern a very diverse people in the country effectively without fear of discrimination.
It relates to the motto of US <em>“E Pluribus Unum.” (meaning </em><u><em>out of many one</em></u><em>) </em>in the sense that, <em>despite the many colonies and tribes found in United States, the country is still one and governed appropriately by the use of system called Federalism.</em>

Correct answer: Creating the Environmental Protection Agency
Explanation/detail:
The formal recognition of China and Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT) were <u>foreign</u> policy initiatives (not domestic).
As to interest rates, during the Nixon presidency, the Federal Reserve chairman, Arthur Burns, had begun raising interest rates. In 1971, President Nixon exerted pressure on Burns and "the Fed" to keep interest rates down, but that only led to a decade of high inflation that caused other economic problems. So that was not a success for Nixon.
<u>About the Environmental Protection Agency</u>
President Nixon signed an executive order establishing the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970. Subsequent committee hearings in the House of Representatives and the Senate ratified Nixon's order for the creation of the agency.
Environmental issues had been gaining much attention during the 1960s, and the need for oversight became clear. As Lily Rothman reported in a TIME magazine article:
- <em>An oil spill off the California coast in 1969 coated 400 square miles with slime and killed hundreds of birds. Scientists announced that auto exhaust was at high enough levels in some places that it could cause birth defects. The city of St. Louis smelled, as one resident put it, “like an old-fashioned drugstore on fire.”</em>

Nixon's administration felt it necessary to take action to address pollution problems in the American environment.
The Peace of Westphalia, concluded in 1648 in Münster (Germany), ended the Thirty Years War, which started with an anti-Habsburg revolt in Bohemia in 1618 but became an entanglement of different conflicts concerning the constitution of the Holy Roman Empire, religion, and the state system of Europe.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
So basically there shall be no slavery within the US, and if there is it will be prosecuted.
