Answer:The Articles of Confederation held the new United States together long enough for it to prevail in the Revolutionary War, but once the war was over the league of friends quickly became a league of impoverished quibblers. The Founders had been so concerned with making sure the central government couldn’t become too powerful that they neglected to make it powerful enough to solve the issues facing a new nation.

Explanation:

The United States’ transition from a ragtag group of colonies to a successful independent nation was a little like the transition period from childhood to adulthood. As the colonies matured, American colonists grew to despise being treated as the children of Great Britain. Like rebellious teens, they vowed that when they won their independence, their government would be nothing like that of the mother country.

It’s no surprise that when the leaders of the former colonies finally did get the chance to set up their own government as the new United States, they were mostly focused on trying to avoid what they had perceived as abuses wrought by an overly-powerful government. Their first constitution was called the Articles of Confederation. It bound the states together in a loose “league of friendship” that permitted the states to retain nearly all government power.

How much of the land in Japan is good for agriculture? I would like a relative region, e.g. North, south, northwest, etcetera.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

About 15-20 percent is suitable for Agriculture in which the majority is from the North which accounts for about 10-12 percent.

Japan is an island country and it is affected by currents most of the time. These currents cause severe typhoons which hamper a mass agricultural production in the country. This is why Japan relies heavily on imported food products.

Answer: Hi there! I think your answer would be centration!

Explanation: Centration is the tendency to focus on only one aspect of a situation at one time, especially to an extent that overwhelms a subject or disassociates them from other surrounding stimuli.

In Sarah Lee's situation, she has become so focused on the fact that her dad has more dough than her that she becomes overwhelmed with the situation. Some may say that she's not looking at "the big picture" here, and is unconscious of other facts present, like the fact that cookies will still be made from her dough, no matter its size.
