The correct answer is C) They needed to replace the British government after the war with their own government.

Each of the states wrote a Constitution as soon as independence was declared because they needed to replace the British government after the war with their own government.

The Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, during the American Revolutionary War. Although the war ended until 1783, each of the colonies knew that they had to create their own set of rules to replace the ruling of the English crown. So many states decided that popular rule should be the right form of government. That is why the assemblies had a prominent role in the new governments and the governor followed in importance.

What did the reformation and counter reformation cause the Catholic Church to do

Gnom [1K]

The Roman Catholic church convened the Council of Trent in November of 1544 in an attempt to counter the doctrines raised and supported by the Reformers.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Council of Trent was the proper Roman Catholic answer to the doctrinal difficulties of the Protestant Reformation. It served to characterize Catholic convention and made clearing orders on self-change, assisting with reviving the Roman Catholic Church even with Protestant extension. The Reformation turned into the reason for the establishing of Protestantism, one of the three significant parts of Christianity. The Reformation prompted the reformulation of certain fundamental principles of Christian conviction and brought about the division of Western Christendom between Roman Catholicism and the new Protestant customs.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The option that best demonstrates the historical interpretation that democracy in America was expanded in the 1820s and 1830s is:

Permanent institutionalization of the political party system (1836).

The event that supported this was the formation of two main political parties: the Democratic Party and the Republic (Whig) Party.

The reason that "Non-renewal of the charter of the Bank of the national bank (1836)" is not as useful as an evidence that democracy in America expanded in the time of the 1820s and 1830s is that the issue was not for the political parties to decide. It was Congress that exercised the right to renew the charter, which President Andrew Jackson vetoed.

Explanation:

The party system institutionalization in the United States happened with the formation of the Democratic Party and the Republican Party (formerly the Whig Party). These party systems brought stability in governance and lowered populism in political structure. They gave the parties the opportunity to develop internally and foster better public policies.
