The battle demonstrated that inexperienced Continental militia could stand up to regular British army troops in battle.

(The French Revolution) Who was calling for a creation of a republic?

Answers

Answer:

Executive power would lie in the hands of a five-member Directory (Directoire) appointed by parliament. Royalists and Jacobins protested the new regime but were swiftly silenced by the army, now led by a young and successful general named Napoleon Bonaparte.

Answer:

The Founders, Democracy, and the Republic

The Constitution specifically creates a Federal Republic, a federation of republican states and a central federal republican government. Meanwhile the focus on states’ rights, a separation of powers between the executive, legislative, and judicial, and the liberal-minded the Bill of Rights (which amends the Constitution) helps to ensure “strong Democratic values.” Thus, “the U.S. is a Constitutional Federal Republic; with strong Democratic values” by design.[1]

The Founders did not do this because they thought a “Representative” Republic (AKA Representative Democracy) was perfect, or because they all agreed a strong federal government was better than a looser Confederation of states (see all of American history and the Articles of Confederation, to States’ Rights, to the Confederates). They did it because they wanted to avoid the pitfalls of past governments, including factions, special interests, oligarchs, despots, monarchy, weak central government, and specifically mob rule. Mob rule, also called Tyranny of the Majority, is what happens when a “pure” Democracy devolves into Anarchy, and thus there is no law or laws are not followed.

Excerpt from an open letter to the American Railway Union in 1897, by Eugene Debs, founder and member of the Industrial Workers of the World

Which of the following best explains why Russians’ reaction to socialism differed from Americans’ in the late 19th century?

Russian society was largely agricultural, while American society was highly industrialized.
The Russian movement was a broad coalition, but the American movement was composed of only workers.
Russian workers lacked avenues of protest, while American workers had labor unions and political parties.
The Russian movement worked separately from less radical factions, while the American movement worked directly with more radical groups.

Answers

Answer: Russian workers lacked avenues of protest, while American workers had labor unions and political parties.

Explanation:

Russian workers in the late 19th century did not have a lot of avenues to protest because they were under an autocratic emperor known as the Tsar and the nobles and upper classes controlled the economy with a tight grip. They were therefore unable to declare their support for Socialism even if they supported it.

This was in sharp contrast to the freedom enjoyed by the Americans when they protested as they were in a democracy and had labor unions and political parties through which they could make their voices heard and champion their cause.

John Pory believed that the colonies were already almost perfect and nothing could go wrong. In his eyes he saw perfection except three things according to him, “three things there be, which in a few years may bring this colony to perfection; the English plow, vineyards, and cattle.” He also said a regular colonist worker could raise themselves to the value of 200 pound sterling which is $270.45 USD which at the time, was very rich. Pory mentioned how that seemed very rare or impossible, but such people could do it. Overall, John Pory believed that the colony was in good shape, the economy was striving, and the colonists were doing just fine.

In the excerpt from the Mayflower Compact, the pilgrim leaders wanted to become almost one and form a set of rules, laws, and constitutions that would benefit the colonies. I know this because at the end it stated, “and by virtue hereof, to enact, constitute, and frame such just and equal laws, ordinances, acts, constitutions, and offices . . . “ I knew they wanted to come together as one big civil body because it stated, “covenant and combine ourselves together into a civil body politic for our better ordering and preservation and furtherance of the ends aforesaid.” This evidence showed to me that they didn't want the rules to be unfair, and unequal however, they wanted to do the opposite of that and make sure everybody had equal rights and treatment.

Garangula, a chief of one of the Iroquois tribes, believed nobody should be limited to travel, or marketplace relations. However, anyone should be allowed to do what they please and feel like. Since he wanted to emphasize the fact that none of his people were subject to French or English colonial rule, he said this to his people, “We are born free. We neither depend upon [the governor of New France] nor [the governor of New York]. We may go where we please . . . and buy and sell what we please.” This showed to me he was a strong, responsible and fearsome leader since he wanted everyone to know they can do what they want if they choose.

Explanation:

"Lawless: We’re seeing an uptick in terms of high level professionals working in presidential politics among the Democrats as well. Something that I would note that makes racial diversity a little bit different than gender diversity is that women aren’t monolithically Democratic. So, when it comes to racial diversity, almost every African-American, almost every Latino in elected office today, is a Democrat. And so, when you have a lot of Democratic candidates run, that really opens the door for a lot of African-American and Latino voters to get enthusiastic, and also for operatives to get jobs."
