Answer:

I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A HISTORY LESSON RIGHT HERE AND NOW.

In the United States, the Bill of Rights is the first ten amendments to the Constitution. The purpose of the Bill of Rights is to provide specific freedoms to citizens and limit the power of the government.

When it's capitalized, the Bill of Rights refers to a specific statement of rights, like the one that precedes the US Constitution. With lower-case letters, a bill of rights is a more general formal statement of rights and freedoms for a group of people. The US Bill of Rights was ratified in 1791, and it guarantees — among many other things — the rights of free speech, freedom of religion, and trial by jury.

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Amendment II

A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

And so on. Please do tell me, what are your history teacher's teaching you?

The main purpose of the challenger expedition was to find new fishing areas for england.
sashaice [31]
This is false. They wanted to conduct a scientific investigation of great depths and find out more of what lies in the oceans. They traveled while probing depths to see what lies beneath and discovered thousands of new species that were undocumented before because there was no technology to leave shallow water.

Actually, they have a lot of timber, and in fact export it to India - this is true! Also minerals.

Small countries also attract turism often, and Himalayas are good for tourism too.
