The correct answer is "B".

The passage is describing the period of time that the US citizen holding the title of President may legally be in the position, as well as the constitution of the Electoral College. An institution that is formed every 4 years with the exclusive purpose of electing the President of the United States. The electoral college currently consists of 538 electors. In order for a candidate to win the Presidency, he or she needs at least 270 votes out of the 538 potential votes that exist.

Answer and Explanation:

Civilization will be established around a territory with the presence of an extensive river. This area was chosen for presenting environmental advantages for the establishment of civilization. This is because regions around rivers usually present soil with high fertility, which will be extremely important for the establishment of agriculture, allowing civilization to have enough to feed itself and establish a trade that will stabilize the economy. The river will be used as a water source for irrigation of agricultural crops and for consumption. In addition, fishing can strengthen trade and food.

Civilization will organize itself into small villages that will be enlarged as needed. In the middle of the territory will be the leader's house, which will be established in the center to represent the leader's power and control in people's lives. On the right side of this house, there will be a temple where offerings will be offered to the gods. Around time there will be the priests' house and the citizens' houses will be established in the rest of the region, with the noblers living closer to the leader.

My house consists of a square made of mud walls and covered with straw. My house is closer to the river as I am a farmer and it is close to the river that farmers live.

Explain the quote “No taxation without representation “
Vikentia [17]
Taxation without representation is the act of being taxed by an authority without the benefit of having elected representatives. The term became part of an anti-British slogan when the original 13 American colonies aimed to revolt against the British Empire. Taxation without representation occurs when a taxing authority, such as the government, imposes taxes its citizens and other entities but fails to provide them with a political voice through elected representatives. This was one of the main causes of the American Revolution. Those living in the colonies believed that if they were to pay taxes, then they should have adequate representation — and therefore, a political voice — in the British Parliament. And it still happens in some places today.
