Rule of law is a principle under which all persons, institutions, and entities are accountable to laws that are:
Publicly promulgated
Equally enforced
Independently adjudicated
And consistent with international human rights principles.

The courts play an integral role in maintaining the rule of law, particularly when they hear the grievances voiced by minority groups or by those who may hold minority opinions. Equality before the law is such an essential part of the American system of government that, when a majority, whether acting intentionally or unintentionally, infringes upon the rights of a minority, the Court may see fit to hear both sides of the controversy in court.

Answer:

The Articles of Confederation was an agreement within the 13 states in accepting the us as confederation of sovereign states and created it's 1st constitution. The articles allowed the Continental Congress to run the revolutionary war, perform diplomacy within Europe, print money, and find out territorial issues.

However, the articles created a weak government and one house legislature congress wasn't allowed to tax and do any type or foreign trade. It left the govt to be short in money and therefore the people were allowed to manage their own trade.

In 1787, the state delegates called to revise the articles of confederation, called the Constitutional Convention. Congress of Confederation was the new governing body.

In 1775 colonies started calling themselves states and creating new constitutions. They wanted bicameral state legislatures, strong executive leaders, less restriction on the people, and continuance of established religions by the state. Also people wanted less restricted voting or holding office requirements.

With the assistance of Hamilton et al. the constitution was created. The constitution tried to limit the power of the govt and distribute it into the checks and balances. People didn't want to simply accept the constitution because the bill of rights limited the government's power, provide a constitutional reassurance the people would keep their rights and liberty.

A person or group designated to take the blame for or endure suffering for others. Primarily biblical On Yom Kippur, a goat was released into the wilderness after the high priest figuratively placed the sins of the people upon its head.
