95/96
Under our Constitution, some powers belong to the states. What is one power of the states?
make treaties
create an army - My answer
provide schooling and education - supposedly correct answer.
coin or print money
However, the states all have their own little militias and state guards and whatever, while there was no such thing as public schooling at the time the constitution was written.
Am I wrong or is the test wrong?
In 18th century parlance, an army and a militia were not the same thing. An army was a body of paid troops whose primary occupation was soldiering, while the militia was a bunch of armed civilians called up as needed.
