In the time of George Washington, travel was slow and roads were bad. So the Founders allowed a period of four months between the presidential election and the inauguration. With the improvement of road making and advancement of technology, the Twentieth Amendment shortened this unnecessary wait.

This was made because of advances in technology with faster travel and communication. If people were told that they are forced to leave office in five months because they were not reelected, they would not do their work for those last five months.

The correct answer is C. Symbolic ethnicity

Explanation:

The term "ethnicity" refers to an individual's love, pride and belonging to a specific ethnical group (individuals that share history, beliefs, traditions, etc). In the case of "symbolic ethnicity," this implies the individual does not necessarily integrate all the beliefs, values, traditions, etc. in his daily life but these are still part of the individual's heritage. This concept is displayed by Steve because even though he does not completely follow or integrates the traditions, beliefs, etc of British people or Swedish he recognizes these cultures are part of his heritage and therefore he has inherited elements of them although not all of them are part of his daily life, which are all features of "symbolic ethnicity".
