Question

hey can you tell me what resolves means in this sentance?
"...then the following resolves were passed,"

Answer 1

I think it means.. solutions.

For example like in Colonial America if you had a problem, such as the Articles of Confederation which were a terrible form of government, the resolves that were passed would be the Constitution, which were created to patch up the Articles and create a strong unified government.

I hope this helped!
