    What does loyalty mean? The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines loyal as “having or showing complete and constant support for someone or something” and loyalty as “the quality or state of being loyal”.

An accepting person is happy with who he/she is‚ treats everybody equally‚ and is non-judgmental. This is especially important in today’s society because we face so much discrimination.

    What being an American means to me is that I have the rights to do anything. Even though we are able to have all of these rights doesn’t mean we are able to take advantage of them there are still consequences for our actions. All the people in the Navy‚ Army‚ Air-force etc have the job to protect us‚ not everyone who shoots people just because. Being an American to me means being respectful to everyone. Like what Harry S Truman said‚ “you know that being an American is more than a matter

    For me personally‚ in one word‚ democracy means freedom. More in depth‚ democracy is much more complex because it allows all citizens to have an equal say in many different decisions that affect lives.

The country used to be run under communism which was much more controlled than democracy. No one was allowed to own their own
