The comma really doesnt have a history... it just came around when the alphabet and punctuation was made. A comma is like a period but shorter.

Should a comma come before or after or?

Not necessarily. Where a comma goes is entirely a matter of sentence structure. There is no word or phrase in English that requires a comma.---In separating clauses and phrases, the comma (when necessary) comes before the or, as a pause.Was this the biggest mistake in all of human history, or the greatest success?Otherwise, the or seems to join history and success.The only time the comma comes after the or is when there is what may be called a parenthetical expression, or interruption, as for a clarification.Will they quit or, fearing humiliation, continue to fight?The conjunction or is connecting quit to continue.

How would you see if a sentence had a comma splice?

If a sentence consists of two independent clauses with a comma between them, it is a comma splice. That is, the part before the comma can stand on its own as a sentence, and the part after the comma can also stand on its own as a sentence, then it is a comma splice. If there is no punctuation there instead of a comma, it is known as a run-on sentence.
