Which statement would most likely come from someone who supported a unitary parliamentary government? "the king is the only one who has the divine right to rule. individuals are not important, and only exist to further the glory and well being of the king." "the legislature of the national government should hold all political power. it should also be responsible for the election of the prime minister." "we should make sure that the national government does not become too powerful. the people should also directly elect the president." "each state should rightly be independent. the national government should only be responsible for our mutual defense. in fact, we should not have a president or prime minister, as no individual should have that much power."

the berlin blockade was an international crisis that arose from an attempt by the soviet union, in 1948–49, to force the western allied powers (the united states, the united kingdom, and france) to abandon their post-world war ii jurisdictions in west berlin. in march 1948 the allied powers decided to unite their different occupation zones of germany into a single economic unit. in protest, the soviet representative withdrew from the allied control council. coincident with the introduction of a new deutsche mark in west berlin (as throughout west germany), which the soviets regarded as a violation of agreements with the allies, the soviet occupation forces in eastern germany began a blockade of all rail, road, and water communications between berlin and the west. on june 24 the soviets announced that the four-power administration of berlin had ceased and that the allies no longer had any rights there.
