What effect did the conflict of orders have on the early Roman Republic?
The conflict of the Orders saw the creation of the Plebeian Council, where the plebeians could discuss their issues and make their own resolutions, and of the plebeian tribunes, their representatives. These were institutions which existed in parallel and separately from the other Roman institutions: the senate and the other two popular assemblies, the Assembly of the Soldiers and the Assembly of the Tribes. The conflict also led to power sharing between patricians and rich plebeian. Originally the patricians monopolised political power. The rich plebeians gained access to the offices of state and the senate. In the Late republic, when the issue of poverty became a political hot potato, there were times when the plebeian tribunes clashed over the issue of reforms to help the poor.
What is it called when a state rejects a federal law?
It's called the Doctrine of Nullification. The theory states that a state has the right to nullify or declare void any Federal law that it deems to be unconstitutional. Although there is no clause in the US Constitution stating who has the right to declare a Federal law to be unconstitutional, precedent had given that power to the US Supreme Court alone. However since there is no direct Constitutional clause (only indirectly through the Supremacy Clause), the right of the Supreme Court to be the sole arbiter of the constitutionality of a law was highly controversial. Nullification was a hot political issue on the first half of the 19th century. The controversy surrounding nullification indirectly led to the American Civil War. After the Civil War was over, nullification ceased to be a major political issue though it has arisen several times since then and has never entirely gone away.
Where does hot dog get its name?
What seems to have happened is that near the end of the nineteenth century, around 1894-95, students at Yale University began to refer to the wagons selling hot sausages in buns as dog wagons. One at Yale was even given the nickname of 'The Kennel Club'. It was only a short step from this campus use of dog to hot dog, and this fateful move was made in a story in the issue of the Yale Record for 19 October 1895, which ended, "They contentedly munched hot dogs during the whole service."
