How are the state and national governments different?
see http://bensguide.gpo.gov/9-12/government/federalism2.html National Government State Governments
- Print money
- Regulate interstate (between states) and international trade
- Make treaties and conduct foreign policy
- Declare war
- Provide an army and navy
- Establish post offices
- Make laws necessary and proper to carry out the these powers
- Issue licenses
- Regulate intrastate (within the state) businesses
- Conduct elections
- Establish local governments
- Ratify amendments to the Constitution
- Take measures for public health and safety
- May exert powers the Constitution does not delegate to the national government or prohibit the states from using
In addition to their exclusive powers, both the national government and state governments share powers. Shared powers between the national government and state governments are called concurrent powers. Current powers of the national government and state governments include the ability to:
- Collect taxes
- Build roads
- Borrow money
- Establish courts
- Make and enforce laws
- Charter banks and corporations
- Spend money for the general welfare
- Take private property for public purposes, with just compensation

Why does a synchronous generator typically run at lagging power factor?
When a synchronous generator is running at lagging power factor the current it supplies lags its terminal voltage. Thus it acts as a source of reactive power, or magnetizing vars.
Reactive power is needed to create the magnetic fields in devices such as transformers and induction motors.
The Power factor of a utility depends on the type of load it supplies. Usually the Loads on utility are inductive loads (where the current lags behind the Voltage) and hence the power factor at which the utility operates is lagging. Most loads connected to utility are inductive loads like motors, fans, rolling mills which cause the power factor of the utility to be of lagging in nature.
Did Germany use submarines to start world war 1 with the US?
Not exactly...
What you are thinking of is the sinking of the RMS Lusitania, an English passenger line that went from Liverpool, England, to New York City and back again. It was sunk by a German U-Boat roughly a hundred miles the coast of Ireland, as it was headed towards Liverpool (ergo, full of New York passengers). This got the US quite upset.
On top of that, the English strategically timed the release of a dispatch from Germany to Mexico that they had decoded, this was called the Zimmerman Telegram. In the telegram, Germany promised Mexico that if they joined the Central Powers and the Central Powers won, then Mexico would regain all the land lost to America in the Spanish-American War.
It was primarily that combination that caused America to enter the war.
Who were the Leaders for central powers?
The central powers were:
- The Austro-Hungarian Empire
- The German Empire
- The Ottoman Empire
- The Kingdom of Bulgaria
Franz Joseph I was the leader of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Wilhelm II led the German Empire. The Ottoman Empire was led by Sultan Mehmed V. The kingdom of Bulgaria was led by Premier Vasil Radoslavov.
Franz Joseph I ruled from December 1848 until 21 November 1916. He left all military decisions regarding the war to various government officials and got to the point where he knew victory was impossible and that the Empire would most likely break up. He reigned for almost 68 years, until he died in 1916.
Wilhelm II, formally known as Friedrich Wilhelm Viktor Albrecht von Preußen (but known in English as Frederick William Victor Albert of Prussia), was a grandson of the British Queen Victoria. He ruled from 15 June 1888 until 18 November 1918. He was a very ineffective monarch and made many blunders. He supported Austria in the 1914 crisis, which led to World War I. He also made many major decisions on his own and allowed his generals to dictate policy. He ignored the civilian government and eventually lost the support of the army, abdicating in November 1918 and fleeing to the Netherlands, where he was exiled.
Sultan Mehmed V was the son of a Sultan who reigned from 27 April 1909 to 3 July 1918. He did not have much political power and many decisions regarding the Empire in World War I were made by the Three Pashas (Enver Pasha, Talat Pasha, and Cemal Pasha). Mehmed V's only notable political act was to officially declare Jihad against the Allies in November 1914. However, this declaration didn't have much of an impact on the war even though many Muslims lived in the Ottoman territories.
Vasil Radoslavov was a Bulgarian politician who served as Prime Minister twice. Throughout much of WWI, he was Premier of the country. He studied in Heidelberg and began supporting Germany. He had a strong support for a strong relationship with Austria-Hungary and was very anti-Russia. He initially had much German and Austrian-Hungarian support, but after the entry into the war, support decreased significantly. Eventually, his government became very corrupt and subservient to Germany. After the war, Radoslavov fled into exile in Germany, where he died in 1929.

How did militarism contributed to the start of World War 1?
Britain had a great navy, Germany wanted a great navy too. Germany and France competed for larger armies. The more one nation built up its army and navy, the more other nations felt they had to do the same.
The Alliance System.
For Twenty years, the nations of Europe had been making alliances. It was thought the alliances would promote peace. Others would protect each country in case of war. Making it foolish for one country to wage war on another. The danger of these alliances was that an argument between two countries could draw all the other nations into a fight. This is just what happened when a conflict between Austria-Hungary and Serbia led to World War 1. Austria, badgered on by militaristic Germany, gave Serbia a set of demands it could not live with , starting the terrible chain reaction that ensued. In the summer of 1914 there were two alliances. The Triple Alliance composed of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy, stood opposed to the Triple Entente composed of Britain, France, and Russia.
