Question 8 • Literacy and Comprehension B (WHS)

Define sovereignty and describe what you know about sovereignty in the US.

Answer

Answer:

Sovereignty is the authority of a nation or government to rule itself and make its own laws without outside control. In the United States, sovereignty means the country governs itself as an independent nation. It also includes the idea that power comes from the people, and that federal and state governments each have certain powers under the Constitution.
