The Declaration of Independence was the first formal statement by a nation’s people asserting their right to choose their own government.
When armed conflict between bands of American colonists and British soldiers began in April 1775, the Americans were ostensibly fighting only for their rights as subjects of the British crown. By the following summer, with the Revolutionary War in full swing, the movement for independence from Britain had grown, and delegates of the Continental Congress were faced with a vote on the issue. In mid-June 1776, a five-man committee including Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin was tasked with drafting a formal statement of the colonies’ intentions. The Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence—written largely by Jefferson—in Philadelphia on July 4, a date now celebrated as the birth of American independence.

Which nation is the “barbarous and hellish power” that Paine mentions here? A government of our own is our natural right: And when a man seriously reflects on the precariousness of human affairs, he will become convinced, that it is infinitely wiser and safer, to form a constitution of our own in a cool deliberate manner, while we have it in our power, than to trust such an interesting event to time and chance . . . Ye that oppose independence now, ye know not what ye do; ye are opening a door to eternal tyranny, by keeping vacant the seat of government. There are thousands, and tens of thousands, who would think it glorious to expel from the continent, that barbarous and hellish power.
Answer:
I would think generous that barbers and hellish power

. Are the concerns that Washington had about the nation's foreign affairs still applicable today? Why/why not?
i dont know the answer
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The concerns that George Washington had about the nation's foreign affairs are not applicable today because we are living in a globalized world in which nations are connected like never before, and all modern and democratic countries need each other in order to grow and prosper.
George Washington -the first President of the United States- had a peculiar way of thinking regarding foreign affairs during his tenure as president. He did not like the idea to have permanent agreements with foreign nations. He preferred short agreements in case of wars or conflicts, and as soon as the conflict was over, the agreement too.
But that was then, and today is different. Every single country in the world needs the help of other countries. That is why nations sign cooperation treaties in trade, foreign policy, and more.

World War II required Oklahoma to develop military and aviation industries, which diversified its economy. Previously,
the state was economically dependent on unstable
markets
A agriculture and petroleum
B. petroleum and coal
C. agriculture and manufacturing
D. natural gas and manufacturing
Answer:
C. agriculture and manufacturing
Explanation:
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Oklahoma's economic history is divided into four periods. The first period covers the nineteenth century, encompassing settlement by American Indians of the Southeast followed by new arrangements facilitating private land ownership. The second extends from 1900 to the onset of the Great Depression in 1930. The third ends in 1973 with the first of the major oil shocks. The fourth comprises the energy boom and bust of the late twentieth century, along with contemporary conditions.
The century from 1800 to 1900 encompassed the time of Indian and white settlement. During the nineteenth century Oklahoma was characterized by very high ratios of land to labor and capital, by almost total dominance of primary (natural resource based) production, and by unique institutional and cultural features, of which the effects of some remain important in today's economy. The initial settlement by the Five Tribes in the 1820s, 1830s, and 1840s in what is now Oklahoma (at that time Indian Territory) did not reflect free-market labor migration in response to income differentials. Added to the coercion of removal was the fact that the Five Tribes had adopted the institution of slavery in their former southern setting. Slave-owning Indians brought with them an additional labor supply.
Economic analysis of Oklahoma prior to white settlement is complicated by the cultures of the Five Tribes. Some members of those groups had adopted the dominant white culture's modern economic and political systems prior to Removal. Others, frequently full bloods, did not wish to become part of the modern sector. There was thus a dual economy. The modern sectors of the Five Tribes apparently prospered during the period from removal to the Civil War. Tribal governments were reestablished, and although land was owned collectively, the tribes granted effective control to large-scale landholders raising cotton and livestock. No doubt per capita incomes grew significantly during this "Golden Era."
