By adopting a federalist system it will allow the small towns to speak up and make a change on issues they believe to be bothersome. One issue, for instance, is child soldiers. Children, in Sudan, are being forced into the army whilst leaving their families and homes behind. On top of the child soldier crisis, South Sudan encourage young children to sell drugs. This is not only an unethical practice but should be against the law. Embracing a Federalist System will allow the lower levels of government to speak up. The country will hear about these issues and make necessary changes. If more people take a stance against the issue then eventually as a unified nation Sudan can ultimately make long-term …show more content…

The Bill of rights will allow there to be a protection for individual liberties. It will list out all the individual freedoms each citizen has. For instance, in 1950 South Sudan restricted the freedom of religion to their citizens. The bill of rights will truly benefit Warrap and Northern Bahr El Ghazal. As stated earlier, there are children from as early as the age of 10 that are suffering in an effort to generate an income for their families. Children are placed into physical labor jobs where they are forced to work in industries, farming, Brick Making, Mining in order to receive money to provide for their families. Not only are children struggling, but 1.7 million families were forced to leave their homes in Jonglei. The bill of rights would serve as a law that goes against inhumane acts. Every citizen deserves the right to privacy and freedom. Each individual deserves the right to live freely and receive respect from the government. The government should serve as a form of protection rather than a form of threat. And the creation of a bill of right will ensure

    Most Federalist are elitist that own large amounts of land, educated and feel that they should govern to spare the republic from a democracy. Due to their education and experience with negotiations and treaties I feel that they are better suited to make decisions that will benefit the nation as a whole instead of each individual colony. With those in control that are educated and aware of the opportunities they can do what’s best for everyone by educating those that are unfamiliar with the opportunities that are available. A national government would strengthen the new nation as well as improve international trade for the benefit of all. This would not be possible with each colony being responsible for its own government without guidance. A strong national government relates to the economic development of the nation

  • American Government Vs Unitary Government

    Being able to have the local governments tell the national government what is happening in the area is something they need to know about. Unitary governments aren’t as personal as the local government can be, and they don’t really help the lower classes. Being able to have a federalism government is good for the United States because it protects the individual rights of the people better than the unitary government. Federalism also protects the citizens against destructive leaders, because of the checks and balances system we have in government it keeps all the branches of government equal and not one area will be the strongest. Another advantage is that the government is more responsive to the people’s needs and desires, with the United States being such a big country it would be hard for Obama to govern us in Utah the same way as people in New York are being governed. Being able have a choice is also an advantage of federalism, having a choice is a great American

    Africa is the second largest of the earth's seven continents, covering about twenty-two percent of the world's total land area. From its northern most point, to its southern most tip is the distance of nearly five thousand miles. Africa is both north and south of the equator. The Atlantic Ocean is located west of the continent, and the Indian Ocean is on the east. Width of the continent is also nearly five thousand miles. Although Africa is so large, much of it is inhabitable. Desert soils, which have little organic content, cover large areas. The Sahara Desert, in the northern part, covers more than one fourth of Africa, and the Kalahari Desert is in the southern part of the continent. These two deserts are a natural detriment to the African continent because they make it difficult to reach the inland where most of the people live. Although Africa is relatively close to Europe, travel by land over the Sahara desert is very prohibitive. Another topographical feature that also isolates the central region of Africa is the coastline.

  • The Advantages of Federalism

    4551 Words  | 10 Pages

    Federalism was selected as the most appealing system of government in 1787, primarily because of lack of feasible alternatives. Confederacy had been tried by the 13 states under the Articles of Confederation, and found to be lacking, in that it did not provide adequate cohesiveness between the individual nation-states. However, widespread loyalty to state government and identity prevented the adoption of a fully unitary system. Instead, founders chose federalism as a moderate option which could best meet the needs of a people desiring national unity, but demanding local representation and authority as well. Further consideration revealed the multiple benefits of a federalist system. Federalism provides a significant obstacle for absolutism. The various levels of government and their allotted capabilities provide firewalls against the rapid spread of extremism and radical political mutation. The national government has the ability to check such a transformation as it moves from state to state. Each comprises a separate entity, which can be influenced independently of its neighbors. On the flip side, if a certain political party is ousted from the national government, it is still likely to carry support on the state level, preventing ideological annihilation. Thus the capacity for tyranny is curbed no matter where it originates. Federalism supports union without destroying state identity. Issues can be debated on a state level, before they are addressed on a national scale. Local proceedings affect the position which state legislators take on a national scale. Not all states or parties must be in agreement on the national level, and the conclusions reached by individual states can be compared as they relate to the nation as a whole. With federalism, the results of policies enacted on a state level can be examined before being applied on a nationwide scale. This allows states the opportunity to pioneer reform and to take steps in desired directions ahead of the remainder of the country. Again, federalism provides a firewall affect, by limiting the destructive potential of original legislation. If the experiment goes awry, its negative impact is limited to the parent state. Successful enterprises can be readily inspected and adopted by other states as they see fit. Solutions to nationwide issues can be tested on the state level be...
