Norma-Jean [14]3 years ago
5 0

The Great Compromise solved the issue of representation by putting the ideas of large(Virginia) states and small( New Jersey) states together. This compromise started off by keeping a two house Congress which were the House of Representatives and the Senate. The House of Representatives came from the large states plan, and the Senate came from the small states plan. The first house represented the people, and it involved a number of representatives based on population of the state. The second house represented the states, and each of the states will have two senators that were elected by their legislature which constructed equal representation.

kati45 [8]

<u>Actually, all of the items mentioned are precedents set by George Washington except one: "defined the president's role as commander in chief".</u> <em><u>American Constitution, in its article II, defines the Powers of the President</u></em>. One of those powers, detailed on <em><u>Section 2, "The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States"</u></em> can't be considered as one of the precedents set by President Washington. <em><u>Indeed, he was the first to have an inaugural parade on April 30th, 1789 in New York City, the first to make an inaugural speech, he established how the President should be addressed, the neutrality in foreign affairs and also, set the precedent for a two-term limit of Presidents that was followed until Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and then turned into the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution.</u></em>

Abraham Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address at what event?
Anna007 [38]

The correct answer is " the dedication of a cemetary "

Explanation

It is a speech that U.S. President Abraham Lincoln delivered during the american civil war at the dedication of the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania on the afternoon of Thursday, November 19, 1863.

In this speech Lincoln described the USA as a nation " conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal," and represented the Civil War as a test that would decide whether such a nation, the Union sundered by the secession crisis,could endure.

He exposed the sacrifices of those who died at Gettysburg in defense of those principles, and exhorted his listeners to resolve  that these dead shall not have died in vain,that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom"  and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
