How was the electoral college system created?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3. whichever candidate received a majority of the popular vote, or a plurality of the popular vote (less than 50 percent but more than any other candidate), took all of the State's electoral votes. Only two States, Nebraska and Maine, did not follow the winner-takes-all rule.

4. 270

5. The Founding Fathers established the Electoral College in the Constitution, in part, as a compromise between the election of the President by a vote in Congress and election of the President by a popular vote of qualified citizens. However, the term “electoral college” does not appear in the Constitution.

What is the meaning of life?

Answers

Answer:

to answer the question "what is the meaning of life?", you would have to make a statement broad enough so that it worked for everyone- so here's my attempt at just that. i think that the best way to broadly attempt to answer this question is to say that the meaning of life is to live. because in my opinion, if the point of life isn't to live, then why are we even alive in the first place? but to sum it all up i almost would say that this question is quite difficult yet simplistic all at once because the truth of the matter is that the point of life is in fact to simply live.

good luck :)

What justification (reason) does Jackson give for Indian Removal? (need 2)

Answers

Answer:

The American Indian Removal policy of President Andrew Jackson was prompted by the desire of White settlers in the South to expand into lands belonging to five Indigenous tribes. After Jackson succeeded in pushing the Indian Removal Act through Congress in 1830, the U.S. government spent nearly 30 years forcing Indigenous peoples to move westward, beyond the Mississippi River.

In the most notorious example of this policy, more than 15,000 members of the Cherokee tribe were forced to walk from their homes in the Southern states to a designated territory in present-day Oklahoma in 1838. Many died along the way.

This forced relocation became known as the “Trail of Tears” because of the great hardship faced by Cherokees. In brutal conditions, nearly 4,000 Cherokees died on the Trail of Tears.

How do we know that Mohenjo-Daro/Harappa was an organized society?

Answers

Answer:

We know that Mohenjo-Daro/Harappa was a well-organized society because of the carefully built structures and the fact everything was measured precisely.

Explanation:

Archaeologists believe the governments of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro were strong and well-organized. The civilizations’ ruins reveal that the cities were carefully constructed. Buildings were spaced evenly and made of uniform bricks. Everything was measured precisely. There was even a sewer system. Strong governments had to have planned and carried out these projects.

We know that Mohenjo-Daro/Harappa was an organized society for the following reasons.

Harappan civilizations were highly advanced in the way they built their cities and infrastructure.Archeologists say that Harappan cities had public sewage systems.Harappans also planned and built organized roads and even interconnected alleys in towns.

They accomplished this forming coordinated groups of workers.These discoveries indicate that Mohenjo-Daro/Harappa was an organized and advanced society. society Harappan civilization was an ancient civilization that lived along the Indus River, modern Pakistan.

The Harappan existed from about 3000 to 1500 BC. Scientists consider that the Harappan civilization spoke the Dravidian language.
