Explanation:
Many parts of the country have experienced devastating earthquakes and tidal waves in the past. The Great Kanto Earthquake, the worst in Japanese history, hit the Kanto plain around Tokyo in 1923 and resulted in the deaths of over 100,000 people.
In January 1995, a strong earthquake hit the city of Kobe and surroundings. Known as the Southern Earthquake or Great Earthquake, it killed 6,000 and injured 415,000 people. 100,000 homes were completely destroyed and 185,000 were severely damaged.
When Ceylon became the Republic of Sri Lanka on 22 May 1972, Gopallawa became the first President. He stepped down from office in February 1978 when then Prime Minister Junius Richard Jayewardene became President following constitutional changes that effected the creation of an executive Presidency.
The most likely reason is to prevent the president from abusing its power.

1 describe some of the purposes of government
Answer:
Innovation, local focus, and free thinking.
Explanation:
<u>Innovation</u>
Entrepreneurs use businesses to create products and services that solve problems in innovative ways. Their products and services must be functional, and they must be designed to be cost-effective and to appeal to enough people to make it viable to produce the products.
<u>Local Focus</u>
When entrepreneurs start successful businesses, they create jobs that contribute to widespread prosperity. Their successful businesses create jobs, and those jobs pay neighborhood workers, who in turn, reinvest their paychecks in local economies.
<u>Free Thinking</u>
Entrepreneurs think outside the box. This capacity for free thinking helps avert cultural homogeneity, which might occur if everyone worked for the same large businesses and who shared the same values.
