The correct answer to this open question is the following.

A specific situation where the principle of checks and balances could be used for the good of the people would be the following.

When the President of the United States sends a bill to the US Congress, thinking that would benefit the economy of the country. For instance, a new tax. When the bill gets to Congress, the House of Representatives decides that this bill is no good for the American people and that is biased to benefit just a political group or the President's Party. Then Congress did not pass the new bill proposed by the executive branch.

Or it could be the other way around. That the President receives a law from the legislative branch and the President considers it is biased to benefit a political group. Then the President exerts his power to veto the law.

The system of checks and balances has been one of the best things implemented by the framers of the Constitution. It guarantees that none of the three branches of the federal government has more power over the other two.

What problems threatened the peace after world War 1?

aksik [14]

Harsh Treaty of Versailles, massive war debt, and a weak League of Nations

The Treaty of Versailles was very harsh toward the losing side in particular Germany. The harshness of the treaty caused nationalistic reactions leading to military buildup and extreme leaders to take control.

Massive debt in Europe led to depression in Europe and eventually in the US. The depression made economies stop dead in their tracks and caused hyperinflation in Germany as well as weak currency. These conditions also contributed extreme leaders.

Lastly, the construction of the League of Nations provided weak leadership when countries became aggressive. The US refused to join despite being the architect of the organization. In addition, the countries turned to appeasement instead of addressing the aggressors.

If Democrats were more united, how might the election have turned out?

Art [367]

Answer:

Won more seat in the election.

Explanation:

If Democrats were more united, the election have turned out differently by winning more seats in the election. They would get more seats in the different states and would make their government. Due to lack of unity, they were divided and loose their strength so if they were united, they will gain more power, won more seats in the elections and more states comes under their control so that's why we can say that the Democrats won more seat if they were more united.
