United States vs. Macedonia (1812)
How large were the forces engaged in the battle? (For a land battle this should be the number and
type of troops involved on each side. For a naval battle this should be the type of ships and number of
guns on each)
Answer:Naval combat in the Age of Sail, which lasted from the 16th to mid-19th century, may seem strange to the modern eye. Sailing ships were virtually floating villages, with the largest ships of the line armed with more artillery than some armies. Because of a ship’s dependence on the wind for propulsion, combat often resembled a deadly dance between combatants, which could disintegrate into a bloody close-range brawl.
It is important to understand the different types of warship that plied the waves during this period, which applies to both the American Revolution and War of 1812. The largest naval vessels were the ships of the line and often classified by the British rating system: first-rate, second-rate, and third-rate. These slow and heavily armed ships would form the core of a battle line and exchange fire with their similarly sized adversaries.
The third-rate formed the backbone of many navies, especially the British, and usually mounted seventy-four guns on three decks, with a crew of up to 700 men. The largest, first-rates, were massive in terms of size and firepower. The most famous example, HMS Victory, Admiral Nelson’s flagship at Trafalgar, mounted 104 cannon, firing a broadside weight of 1,148 pounds, and needed a crew of 800 to fight and sail.
During the American Revolution and War of 1812, the large fleet battles of Europe were rare, with combats between smaller Frigates, Sloops, and Brigs far more common. These ships were not designed to fight on the line, but were used as “cruisers” because of their speed, maneuverability, and range. They were often allowed to cruise independently, searching for enemy targets of opportunity, or attached to large fleets as scouts, pickets, and couriers. Many of the most famous actions of both wars were duels between these smaller, yet deadly, ships.

Do you think there are enough protections in the Constitution to guard against tyranny? Why or Why not? (should be 3-4 sentences)
Answer:
Explanation:
Question 1: Which quote from the Declaration of Independence reflects that colonists' believed the government got its authority from the people?
"That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."
This quote conveys that government is accountable to people because it is the people who voluntarily create the government to protect their fundamental rights.
Question 2: Which quote from the Declaration of Independence shows that the colonists were influenced by John Locke's idea of natural rights?
"They are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights."
John Locke was a prominent French philosopher whose ideas highly influenced most of the democratic governments as we know them today. One of his most influential ideas was that people were born with certain natural, God-given and inalienable rights such as the right to life, liberty, and property. Similarly, in the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson (the author) stated that people are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable right: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Question 3: The legislative branch checks the power of the judicial branch by dissolving federal courts
The only court established in the U.S. Constitution is the Supreme Court. However, this document gives Congress the power to "ordain and establish" tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court, consequently, though the years Congress has passed legislation establishing federal inferior courts, and he also has the power to dissolve them by repealing the original legislation.
Question 4: Below are some of the powers of the legislative branch:
These are some of the powers of the legislative branch, can impeach and remove the president, creates lower federal courts, overrides presidential vetoes, and appropriates money.
Which constitutional power of the legislative branch is missing from this list?

The U.S. Constitution gives Congress, more specifically to the Senate, the power to ratify treaties made by the President in Section 2 of Article II when it states the following:
He (the President) shall have power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to make treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur;
Question 5: Which branch of the government is responsible for making laws?
Legislative
The Legislative branch consisting of a bicameral Congress is responsible for proposing, making and passing legislation. When Congress passes a bill, the bill is sent to the President for approval. If the President signs into the bill, it becomes a law. However, if the President refuses to sign it or rejects it, the bill is then sent back to Congress to allow the chambers to override the Presidential veto.

Explanation:
How are the concepts of separation of powers and checks and balances related?
Answer:
By allotting powers to different branches of government, the branches balance and check each other.
Explanation:
In giving the Legislative Branch, for instance, the power to draft and write laws, while still leaving the President as the final yes/no on any bill, the two branches check each other. In turn, the President is in charge of electing Judicial nominees but the Judicial Branch checks the others by having the power to rule laws and actions as constitutional or unconstitutional.
By giving different branches, different powers that must work together (seperation of powers) the system of checks and balances is created.

a hallmark of early modern era is the rise of western europe on the global stage. based on chapters 5 through 7 how might you challenge a eurocentric understanding of the early modern era while acknowledging the growing role of europeans on the global stage
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
You did not include the text, neither the paragraphs 5 to 7 or the link to them. Without that information, we do not know what exactly you are talking about.
However, trying to help you we can comment on the following general terms.
I would challenge a eurocentric understanding of the early modern era while acknowledging the growing role of Europeans on the global stage by questioning the way European superpowers amassed power and money through colonization of other parts of the world, by conquering those territories eliminating their native people or enslaving them.
The rise of western Europe on the global stage is marked by that time in human history where they colonized territories in North America and exploited the many raw materials and natural resources to make a profit, displacing the Native American Indians that had lived there for thousands of years before the arrival of white Europeans.
Something similar happened with the Spaniards who colonized and exploited Mesoamerica and South America.
In more modern times, at the end of the 1800s, beginning of the 1900s, European superpowers split the African Continent in what was known as the "Scramble for Africa," causing so much pain and damage to the African people and their territories.
