Washington’s Farewell Address, 1796 (Modified Excerpts) (1) The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt (promote) the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation (label or name) derived from local discriminations. With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits, and political principles. You have in a common cause fought and triumphed together; the independence and liberty you possess are the work of joint counsels (meetings), and joint efforts of common dangers, sufferings, and successes. (2) In contemplating the causes which may disturb our Union, it occurs as matter of serious concern that any ground should have been furnished for characterizing parties by geographical discriminations, Northern and Southern, Atlantic and Western; whence designing (manipulative) men may endeavor (try) to excite a belief that there is a real difference of local interests and views. (3) Let me now take a more comprehensive (complete) view, and warn you in the most solemn (serious) manner against the baneful (negative) effects of the spirit of party generally. The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose (rest) in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction (group), more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of public liberty. (4) Promote then, as an object of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion (spread) of knowledge. In proportion as the structure of a government gives force to public opinion, it is essential that public opinion should be enlightened (educated). (5) The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop. It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world.

(10 points) After William the Conqueror became king of England, he passed the Magna Carta, which created Parliament. When Parliament was established by the Romans, the idea of rule by legal precedent began in England. Over time, Parliament lost power and the king became the absolute power in England, which continues today. After William the Conqueror became king of England, he enacted the Doomsday Book and other legal precents that established that Parliament and the monarch would rule England as equal powers.
