Answer:
The palace of Versailles was a symbol to the people of wealth and how much power Louis XIV had in Europe. The practical purpose that Louis XIV had when it came to making the palace was just to show off to the people and show how much control he had over the economy and what he could do with the money.
Explanation:
The Three-Fifths Clause was one of the many compromises delegates worked out during the Constitutional Convention in 1787. It struck a balance between large slave states in the South and smaller northern states that had abolished slavery. It restricted, but not eliminated, the apportioned congressional representation of slave states by limiting the Census to counting slaves as only three-fifths of a person
Answer:
- The U.S. colonists seceded from Great Britain simply because they did not like the taxes King George had imposed, and the taxes were reasonable. They were simply to make up for the money that was lost while defending the colonists, but they decided to revolt and secede in order to create a government they thought just.
- The natural god given rights is life, liberty, and property. To deny someone the ability to secede would be to deny one his/her right to all three of these rights.
- Entering the union was a voluntary act; therefore it should be legal to leave the union whenever any one state pleases.

Answer: a) the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
Explanation:
The State of Southern Carolina began it's Secession Declaration by stating that... "<em>deems it due to herself, to the remaining United States of America, and to the nations of the world, that she should declare the immediate causes which have led to this act</em>". This invalidates option D because they believe themselves obliged to declare their reason for seeking independence.
The Declaration then speaks on the notion that Governments are established by humans to aid them to certain ends. End which if not met, constitute a just cause to remove the Government from power. This invalidates option B.
In the last part of the Declaration, South Carolina alluded to its reasons for seeking independence being that the Northern Non-slave states had violated statutes that required them to return slaves who escaped from a slave state. This invalidates Option C.
Option A was never alluded to in the Secession Declaration of South Carolina and little wonder why. As a state that was in support of slavery, to maintain that all people had<em> the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, </em>they would have been invalidating the institution of slavery and so they abstained from emphasising it.
C I believe is the answer your looking for
