Answer:
the central government to avoid monarchy.
Explanation:
By adopting Separation of Powers, with a system of balance and checks, they could have a system that would never be as powerful as having a monarch (a Civil Monarch as many in the South would call) in power. The idea was that even though the representative of the Federal Government was powerful, he or she would always be limited by the power of the legislative and judiciary.
Pope Clement VI (1291 - 1352) was born in Maumont, Rosiers-d'Égletons, Limousin, Kingdom of France and was pope from May 7th 1342 until his death. He had the disadvantage to be on the papal chair at the time of the first appearance of the Black Death in Europe. Gabriel de Mussis (1280 - 1356) and he was a notary from Piacenza, Italy, who gave a lucid account of the Black Death (bubonic plague) in the Black Sea city of Kaffa (Feodosia) and in Sicily known as Istoria de Morbo sive Mortalitate quae fuit Anno Dni MCCCXLVIII [“History of the Disease, OR The Great Dying of the Year of our Lord 1348”].
Clement announced two papal bulls in 1348, the latter named Quamvis Perfidiam, which condemned the violence and said those who blamed the plague on the Jews had been seduced by the Devil. He asked the clergy to take action to protect Jews as he had done.
Different groups of people, watching how severe the plague was, started to blame the Jews for the plague, and massacres erupted everywhere in Europe.
Europe utilized the principles of social Darwinism, a theory extrapolating Darwin's concepts of evolution and natural selection, to justify its imperialistic pursuits and empire building on the premise these races or nations were 'inferior'
From the late 19th century to the early 20th century, Europe used
Social Darwinism
as a means to justify empire building. Social Darwinism was a theory that took
Charles Darwin's
ideas about evolution and natural selection and applied them to human society. Essentially, it was used to argue that certain nations or races were 'more evolved' or superior to others, much like certain species are in the animal kingdom. By using these concepts, European nations justified imperialism and their right to dominate 'lesser' nations or races worldwide. This in turn facilitated Europe's efforts of
empire building
