Explanation:
Government and society in China were grounded in the Confucian philosophy, which held that there was a basic order in the universe and a natural harmony linking man, nature, and the cosmos (heaven); it also held that man was by nature a social being, and that the natural order of the universe should be reflected in human relations. The family unit was seen as the primary social unit; relationships within the family were fundamental to all others and comprised three of the "five relationships" that were the models for all others: sovereign-subject; husband-wife; parent-child; elder brother-younger brother; friend-friend. In this hierarchy of social relations, each role had clearly defined duties; reciprocity or mutual responsibility between subordinate and superior was fundamental to the Confucian concept of human relations. The virtue of filial piety, or devotion of the child to his parents, was the foundation for all others. When extended to all human beings, it nurtured the highest virtue, humaneness ("ren" or "jen"), or the sense of relatedness to other persons.
In traditional China it was assumed by adherents of all schools of thought that government would be monarchical and that the state had its model in the family. The ruler was understood to be at once the Son of Heaven, and the father of the people, ruling under the Mandate of Heaven. Traditional thinkers, reflecting on the problem of government, were concerned primarily not with changing institutions and laws but with ensuring the moral uprightness of the ruler and encouraging his appropriate conduct as a father-figure. The magistrate, the chief official of the lowest level of government and the official closest to the people, was known as the "father-mother" official. Even today, under a radically different form of government, the Chinese term for state is "guo-jia" or "nation-family", suggesting the survival of the idea of this paternal and consensual relationship. The first and third of the "five relationships" — i.e., emperor and minister, father and son — indicate the parallels between family and state.
The notion of the role of the state as guarantor of the people's welfare developed very early, along with the monarchy and the bureaucratic state. It was also assumed that good government could bring about order, peace, and the good society. Tests of the good ruler were social stability, population growth (a reflection of ancient statecraft where the good ruler was one who could attract people from other states), and ability to create conditions that fostered the people's welfare. The Mandate of Heaven was understood as justifying the right to rule, with the corollary right to rebel against a ruler who did not fulfill his duties to the people. The state played a major role in determining water rights, famine control and relief, and insuring social stability. The state encouraged people to grow rice and other grains rather than commercial crops in order to insure and adequate food supply; it held reserves in state granaries, in part to lessen the effects of drought and floods, particularly common in northern China. For fear of losing the Mandate of Heaven governments levied very low taxes which often meant that the government could not provide all the services expected of it, and that officials ended up extorting money from the people.
According to what you read in Jefferson and Locke, how are liberty and
order balanced in the social contract?
Answer:
According to the ideas of Locke and Jefferson, libery and order can coexist in the social contract. In fact, the very objective of the social contract is to balance both things.
Liberty is a natural right to all people, and people agree to the social contract in order to have their liberty protected, and also in order to be able to excercise such liberty. Order is established by having a government that keeps people from infringing other people's rights.
Liberty and Order are balanced in the Social Contract as according to Locke and Jefferson through:
According to Locke:
By making Natural right as absolute. That is rights such as life, liberty, and property existed in the state of nature and could never be taken away or even voluntarily given up by individuals Social Contract is not an agreement between people as argued by Hobbes but between them and the sovereign.The king did not hold absolute power, as Hobbes had said, but acted only to enforce and protect the natural rights of the peopleGovernment was mainly necessary to promote the “public good,” that is to protect property and encourage commerce.According to Jefferson:
The balance in Liberty and order can be achieved by differenciating between sovereign and Commonwealth, for example when you are alone, you are sovereign, and when you join with others you have to negotiate what is for the commonwealth, and negotiate what natural rights you get to keep after adjustment by the government.
So by this way liberty and order can be balanced in the social Contract

Mountain ranges most affected early human tribal groups by
Answer:
Mountain ranges were a great physical barrier for early human tribal groups. These were often very hard to cross, or simply unpassable.
These ranges isolated different human groups from each other, leading to the formation of very different cultural identities.
For example, the cultures that would develop north of the Himalayas, in the TIbet, are very different from the cultures that developed south of the Himalayas, in the Indus and Ganges river valleys.
We can find examples like these all over the world. In fact, mountains are still a physical barrier, and are harder to settle than lowlands, even if we have a lot of technology that early human tribal groups did not have.
