There were lots of similarities between Britain's system of government and that of the individual British colonies in North America. One difference, though, was that a far larger proportion of male residents experienced direct representation in theirlegislatures, rather than the "virtual representation" that most Britons experienced inEngland and Scotland. Why? 1.Because elections for office in the colonial legislatures were done by secretballot. 2.Because ownership of enough property to meet the property requirements forvoting was more common in the colonies than it was in Britain. 3.Because the colonists thought slavery, in both the political sense and actualslavery, was more wrong than did their British counterparts. 4.Because only enslaved people were prevented from having voting rights in the colonies.
Briefly explain any three economic roles of a government
Every modern society has a government of some sort, and every society has an economy as well. But how do the government and the economy intersect in society? That debate is prevalent in the United States today: how much influence should the government have on businesses, workers, and the economy? Some people say that the government should not have much influence on the economy—only the minimum necessary to ensure that society functions well. Others say that the government should ensure fair and equitable distribution of resources for all companies and workers. Still others say that the role of the government falls somewhere between those two extremes. You can start thinking about the intersection of government and the economy in the United States by considering your everyday life. From the time you get up in the morning until you go to bed at night, what contacts do you have with the government? Which of those contacts are related to the economy?

One of the things that Theodore Roosevelt tried to do, both as a President, and later, as a presidential candidate, was to define the role of the federal government.
