Answer:

Why was this amendment added? The writers of the Bill of Rights wanted to make sure that the government would not do away with a trial by jury. They were concerned that if trials were only decided by judges, the judges would side with the government, giving the government too much power.

The Seventh Amendment was part of the Bill of Rights that was added to the Constitution on December 15, 1791. This amendment protects the right to a trial by jury in civil court cases.

The writers of the Bill of Rights wanted to make sure that the government would not do away with a trial by jury. They were concerned that if trials were only decided by judges, the judges would side with the government, giving the government too much power. This happened to the colonists when judges, who were appointed by the king, would always side with the king. They felt a jury of local people would be more likely to provide a fair trial.

postnew [5]
The correct answer should be
<span>It is shameful for an emperor to flee the rioters.

Basically, she tells him that it is better to die as royalty and be buried as such than to flee and die like a commoner somewhere else where you are not respected. It would be easier to flee, but better and more honorable if they stayed and died.</span>

What most likely explains the poor standing of Leopoldo 2 among historians today
Inga [223]

The poor standing of Leopold the 2nd is most probably attributed to the role he had in the extermination of huge amounts of people in Belgian colonies at the time. This wasn't known at the time, but today we known that Leopold the 2nd had ordered a genocide over the Congonese people.
