Answer:
The United States is a Constitutional Republic-a country where some decisions (often local) are made by direct democratic processes, while others (often federal) are made by democratically elected representatives. Communism describes a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needs.
Explanation:
The goal of municipal home rule in some states of US is to facilitate local control and minimize state intervention in municipal affairs, so the municipalities and counties have the ability to pass laws in accordance to state and federal constitutions.

It was the main activity of the Southern economy and thwarted industrialization.
Explanation:
Before the Civil War, the North tended to have an economy that was increasingly industrial, it was not the case in the South. The economy in the South was much more based on agriculture, and it was thus much more rural(it had only three major cities, New Orleans, Vicksburgh and Atlanta) as well as the capital of the Confederacy Richmond Virginia.
On the eve of the Civil War, the South had 4 million slaves(the population was roughly 9 million people. Most white people did not own slaves(those who were slave owners had less than 10 slaves generally) and were poor farmers working on the lands left over by the planters. 80 % of the industries were in the North which explains why the South eventually lost the war.
The Civil War ravaged the South, nevertheless it made possible its industrialization by destroying the institution of slavery and the aristocracy which thrived on it. The exportation of cotton had brought great wealth to the south, but the wealth had been unevenly distributed.
It serves as one of the three branches through which all the powers of the government are shared and dispersed equally. Does this help?
