PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
lisov135 [29]
1. The first president under the Constitution, George Washington, in his Farewell Address warned against forming political parties, but his immediate successors didn't listen. John Adams (Federalist) and Thomas Jefferson (Democratic-Republican) fought bitter contests in 1796 (Adams won) and 1800 (Jefferson won). It is the natural instinct of politicians to align with like-minded individuals and want to govern based on ideology rather than to just solve problems one-by-one as they arise. Because the first time two people had a discussion about politics and decided to cooperate toward common goals, in effect the first political party was formed. That’s all a party is.

2. The federalists believed in a strong central government and its proactive involvement in commerce. In general, the federalists were elitists who opposed measures to democratize American politics. In the realm of international relations, federalists were admirers of Great Britain and detractors of the French.


3. Christianity is the most widely professed religion in the Dominican Republic. Historically, Catholicism dominated the religious practices of the country, and as the official state religion it receives financial support from the government. In modern times Protestant and non-Christian groups, such as Muslims and Jews, have experienced a population boom.

7. What events led the colonists to declare their independence from Britain?
solmaris [256]
The French and Indian War were some events that led the colonists to declare independence from  Britain. The British soldiers came over to the colonies(america back then), to fight over the Ohio territory. Well they made the colonist fight with them. This war cost a lot of money. The people in Great Britain wouldn't pay for it because they thought that because it was on our land they had nothing to do with it and shouldn't be taxed. So all the money had to be paid by the colonist. That, in a nutshell is was started the whole thing. Then after that, The British put lots of taxes on the colonists, for sugar, tea, paper, and many other needed items. This lead to the Boston Tea Party. After that happened King George sent over troops and would not let the Boston harbor operate. So the colonist could not get food. They did though, people from all over sent goods and supplies. But king george sent more and more troops over. So eventually the colonist got mad enough that they wouldn't take any more of it and they decided to rid their country of the British soldiers and leaders. So they started a revolution. And that, in a short summary is what started the whole thing.
