The national convention system for nominating presidential candidates was developed by the Democratic Party in the early 19th century. This system was established to provide a more formal and inclusive process for selecting candidates, allowing party members from different states to come together and choose their nominee. The convention system has since been adopted by other political parties in the United States.

Traditionally, the party who holds the White House has the opportunity to select the date of its convention second. Normally the challenging party holds their convention in July while the incumbent party holds its convention in August. This year, later dates were chosen for both conventions since the Democrats wanted to schedule their convention after the 2008 Beijing Olympics ended, and the Republicans wanted to keep the political and financial advantages of going second.

The National Trust took over the Giant's Causeway in 1961. The organization acquired the site to preserve its natural beauty and geological significance, ensuring it remained accessible to the public. Since then, the National Trust has managed the site, focusing on conservation and visitor experience.

The National Baptist Convention supports the religion of Christianity. It has long since been believed that there are two basic trees of the Christian faith-the Catholic tree and the Protestant tree. Catholicism branches out into neo (or modern) Catholicism and Roman Catholicism. Protestantism branches out into Baptists, Puritans, Lutherans, Methodists, etc. Many of these churches form the "Bible belt" of the south in the USA.
It has remained settled since 1607.
The delegates to the Constitutional Convention originally met to reform the Articles of Confederation. The Articles of Confederation were the guidelines for the first national government of the United States. However, they were weak and did not give enough power to the national government so that it was able to hold all of the separate states together. That is why they wanted to reform it. When they started the convention, they discovered that since the Articles of Confederation were so fundamentally flawed it would be better to just come up with an entirely new form of government. So they created the Constitution of the United States of America, which is still used today.
