Answer:

What is Federal government

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation established a small central (aka federal) government and gave a majority of the power to state governments.

Under the Articles of Confederation, there was no executive branch (president) and there were no national courts. Rather, there was a legislative branch in which each state had one representative.

In order to make a change to the Articles of Confederation all 13 states had to agree on a change. To make a new national law, a supermajority was neededd (9/13). These procedures and rules made the Articles of Confederation a highly ineffective form of government. This is why it would be replaced by the US Constitution.

What caused relations between the United States and the Soviet Union to begin to change in the early 1980s? Check all that apply

Georgia [21]

You didn't list options, so I'll simply give some history here.

When President Ronald Reagan came into office in 1981, he took a hard stance toward the Soviet Union. Where previous leaders of the nations had pursued detente and nuclear arms reduction, Reagan spoke of the Soviet Union as the "evil empire" and, in 1983, proposed a major new space-based missile defense program, the Strategic Defense initiative.

But in 1985, the positions of the two countries began to shift again. In March 1985, Mikhail Gorbachev proposed policies of perestroika (restructuring) and glasnost (openness) in the Soviet Union. In November 1985, Reagan and Gorbachev met in person for the first of several summit meetings they would have, and developed a personal relationship.

In 1987, Reagan gave a speech in Berlin (a city divided between democratic West Berlin and communist East Berlin). In that speech he issued a famous personal appeal to Gorbachev, saying:

We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace. There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization, come here to this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!
