So it is 6 essay questions that my professor wants turned into one essay. He requires in text citations (no works cited page) only from pdfs and the book we used in class. I can provide instructions and the PDFs. No length required, just wants the prompts answered. The book we used is called “Give me Liberty” Seventh Brief Edition Volume 1 by Eric Foner

It is a 6 prompt essay that my professor would like as one document. He requires in text citations (no works cited page) from PDFs we have used in class as well as our textbook. I can provide the PDFs and screenshots of the instructions. I am willing to pay much more for you to buy the ebook to complete this assignment.

Answer the following question.  Your response should comprise 4 to 6 pages of written material, double-spaced, font 12. 
Question: 
In the 1950s, the Soviet Union made tremendous technological strides that ultimately saw the latter reach the outer limits of space through satellite technology. Soviet success, from the perspective of the United States, was further evidence of the former’s ambition to spread communism on a global scale.  Thus, the outbreak of political turmoil anywhere in the world was considered, by the United States, a Soviet concoction.  What steps did the US take, in the 1950s, to stop perceived Soviet expansion in the world?

Consider how the US Constitution was an improvement over the Articles of
Confederation. Pick five (5) significant events, policies or problems between the years
1781 and 1836 that were effectively addressed by the government under the new
Constitution and why they could not be addressed or solved under the old Articles of
Confederation. Explain how the Constitution allowed the Federal government to address
each issue effectively and why the government under the Articles of Confederation could
not. The Constitutional Convention, the Separation of Power and the Bill of Rights
cannot be used as examples in the essay. Your answer must include the word Carronade.
How to answer this question: this is a question about comparing and contrasting the two
documents. This is not a difficult or contrived exercise. This is an exercise to explain the
weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation and the improvements made in the US
Constitution. You might start each paragraph with something like “The Lansdowne
Treaty showed the effectiveness of the Constitution over the Articles because…” 
then
explain how or why you believe this using facts from the podcasts or textbook that
support your argument. Your answer must include the word Carronade.
Form (Suggested)
o Introductory paragraph
o Five paragraphs, each one covering one of the five examples you choose
