Answer: I put this and i got it right

Explanation:

Tariff policies of the Republic of Texas varied from an approximation of free trade to the imposition of high duties for revenue purposes. In general, East Texas wanted low tariffs or none at all, West Texas and President Sam Houston advocated high customs for revenue, and president Mirabeau B. Lamar favored abolition of all tariffs. An ordinance of the Consultation on November 13, 1835, granted power to the General Council to impose impost and tonnage duties and provide for their collection. Between 1835 and 1842, seven tariff bills were passed and signed into law and several were passed by Congress but vetoed by Houston. On December 8, 1835, the General Council formed six revenue districts and fixed duties of 20 percent ad valorem on goods entitled to debenture or certificate of drawback in the ports from which they were exported and 10 percent on all other goods except household goods, guns, and ammunition, which were to be admitted free.

What are some values that are important to the people who live and work in the new nation? List three values and illustrate thei
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Three values that are important to the people who live and work in the new nation:

  1. Individual freedom
  2. Equality of opportunity
  3. Material wealth  

Explanation:

  1. Individual freedom : Freedom to the people who live and work in the New Nation means the desire and the right of all individuals to control their own destiny without outside interference from the government, a ruling noble class, the church, or any other organized authority. This desire to be free of controls was a basic value of the new nation, it is especially important to them because it teaches self reliance, they believe that they cannot be truly free if they can't be independent. They must be self reliant if they want to remain free. This means, for example, that children gain financial independence from their guardians as early as possible.
  2. Equality of opportunity: To the people of the New Nation this does not mean that everyone should be equal, to them it means that each individual should have an equal chance for success. For them, equality means that everyone should have an equal chance of winning. For example, equality of opportunity helps ensure that the race for success is a fair one and that a person does not win just because he or she was born into a wealthy family, or lose because of race or religion.
  3. Material wealth: People go to the New Nation to improve their standards of living due its abundance of natural resources. They are willing to work hard to gain material possessions, which they view as a natural reward for their hard work.  Acquiring and maintaining a large number of material possessions is important to the people living and working in the New Nation because it is widely accepted indicator of social status there. due to their stand on being free they rejected European system of nobility, and consequently have to find their own, thus material wealth is used as a measure of social status in the New Nation.
