Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer is a.

Petitions have increased over time, allowing you to eliminate options c and d. They are primarily accepted by writ of certiorari, which orders records from a case in a lower court to be sent to a higher court. Forma pauperis, which is when a court allows someone without sufficient funds to waive the costs of a lawyer, would not explain an increase in petitions to the Supreme Court. So, the answer is a.

Why did antidemocratic governments rise to power in postwar Europe and Asia?

Answers

The answer isn't simple. There are many reasons throughout these countries why each country chose a non-democratic government. However, one main reason for many countries is because of the "blame game." Many countries at the time were failing, and naturally people pointed at their own governments at that time, and unfortunately most of these were democratic. People started blaming the democratic governments for the country's relative poor-being, and when people like Hitler used this to his advantage new anti-democratic governments arose, like communist, fascist, and Nazi Germany.

Who wrote petitions to the British Parliament and launched a sugar boycott in their effort to abolish slavery? the Estates General Quakers suffragettes thesans-culottes

Answers

The Sugar Boycott was led by members of the Quaker faith, including important female voices such as Elizabeth Heyrick from Leicester who recognised the ways in which the sugar trade was helping to support the slave trade.

Quakers launched a sugar boycott and wrote petitions to the British Parliament in their effort to abolish slavery. This was done in 1791 after Parliament rejected the Abolition Bill. Britain's largest import was slave-grown sugar. The idea was to put economic pressure on slave-dependent industries.
