Which of the following best describes how american indian power was affected by the war of 1812?
it was reinforced.
it was untouched.
it was slightly weakened.
it was nearly destroyed

Option D is the right answer, it was nearly destroyed

The war of 1812 in the American history is sometimes called the Forgotten War. The British attempt to define the U.S trade, Americas desire to extend its boundary were some of the causes for the war. The United States experienced multiple harmful defeats at the hands of British, Native American bands and Canadian during the War of 1812. This war finally ended all armed resistance for the Indian Nations of the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley against intrusion onto their ancestral homelands and led to the Treaty Era for these tribal communities.

the answer here would be

separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another.   the intent is to prevent the concentration of power and provide for checks and balances.  

the traditional characterizations of the powers of the branches of american government are:

* the legislative branch is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government.

* the executive branch is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch.

* the judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the constitution and laws and applying their interpretations to controversies brought before it.

forty state constitutions specify that government be divided into three branches:   legislative, executive and judicial.   california illustrates this approach; "the powers of state government are legislative, executive, and judicial.   persons charged with the exercise of one power may not exercise either of the others except as permitted by this constitution."

while separation of powers is key to the workings of american government, no democratic system exists with an absolute separation of powers or an absolute lack of separation of powers. governmental powers and responsibilities intentionally overlap; they are too complex and interrelated to be neatly compartmentalized. as a result, there is an inherent measure of competition and conflict
