9. What role did George Washington have at the Constitutional Convention?


10. What is “Federalism”?


11. What is a system of checks and balances?

1: As a delegate to the Constitutional Convention, Alexander Hamilton found some of his ideas about how to structure a federal government soundly rejected. Yet he liked the resulting Constitution enough to become chief advocate for its approval by the states.

2: Contribution: Having been elected unanimously as the president of the Constitutional Convention, Washington's presence provided a sense of focus and direction. While he originally did not want to be involved with the creation of the Constitution, Washington certainly had a vision for a stronger union.

3: Federalism, mode of political organization that unites separate states or other polities within an overarching political system in a way that allows each to maintain its own integrity.

4: Checks and balances, principle of government under which separate branches are empowered to prevent actions by other branches and are induced to share power. ... Checks and balances are applied primarily in constitutional governments.

hope this helps :)

i'm not exactly sure if you should be referring to your textbook or other resources for this because they might want it verbatim, but here we go.

7: when martin luther king jr. (january 15, 1929 - april 4, 1968) was growing up, although slavery had been abolished, there was still open segregation in practice, i.e., white only restrooms and coloured restrooms. one famous incident was when on december 1, 1955, rosa parks refused to give up her seat to a white man on a bus. because of this, she was arrested, but eventually freed.

8: he was a man who spoke out to the entire nation about peace and equality, so therefore doing something for your community, or nation, is a way of honoring him because he did the same. everyone learns about martin luther king jr. he is famous in history books, most especially for his “i have a dream” speech that inspired millions worldwide. he spoke to the entire nation about freedom, equality, and peace for all. he was participation in his community and doing what was right for him and all his community. participating in service projects is a great idea to honor his dream and his memory. even thought it’s not was comes first to mind when thinking about community service projects, it is an amazing way to honor an amazing man who changed the future for the better.
