Why did benjamin franklin establish the american philosophical society in 1743?

a) to bring together scientists interested in understanding natural phenomena

b) to garner in compiling his book of maxims and proverbs, poor richard's almanack

c) to create a space for those who wanted to share ideas about european religion and politics

d) to bring together intellectuals and challenge the authority of the protestant church

the group i'm selecting: greeks.

a first group of greek immigrants came to the us in the 1850s. the second group came to america starting in the 1890s due to economic opportunities they didn't have back in their home caused by the hardships of ottoman rule. greek immigration was 90% male, many of them expected to work and return to greece after earning enough capital, but ultimately had to remain in the us after the greek genocide.

the answer to your question is a because laws act as guidelines as to what is accepted in society. without it there would be conflicts between social groups and communities. it serves as a norm of conduct for citizens.
