Answer: Before there was a federal (national) government there were only states, and each had its own constitution, put in place as a result of a May 10, 1776 resolution of the Continental Congress encouraging all (at that time) colonies to enact them.

The state constitutions governed the affairs of the states. When the U.S. Constitution came along, replacing the deficient Articles of Confederation, it governed the operation of the new federal government and, to some extent, had to limit the freedom of the states. In Article 1, Section 10, some restraints on the states were imposed.

As the Supreme Law of the Land, the U.S. Constitution rules wherever there is a conflict with a state Constitution. There are, however, what I called “concurrent powers” found in both - the power to tax is an example.

Finally, through the controversial “incorporation doctrine” (controversial because many see it as an improper ruling of the Supreme Court) the states have been required to protect most (but not all) of the rights secured by the Bill of Rights, even if such protections do not exist in their state Constitutions.

What groups were targeted in the Holocaust
sammy [17]

<em>During the Holocaust many groups were targeted, but the majority of the victims were that of Jewish religion and heritage. The Jewish public was forced into camps and made to work under horrible conditions, most died from a lack of food and disease that rocked the small rooms that the victims lived in- then there was also the gas chambers and guards shooting people.</em>

I hope this helped a little!
