Answer:

The President Pro Tempore of the United States Senate is the second most important position in the Senate and the highest position as senator. It is established by the First Article of the Constitution of the United States. The vice president of the United States is the ex officio president of the Senate, this being the highest position of a member of that body; during his absence, the president pro tempore chairs the Senate.

It is elected by the Senate; by custom it is, typically, the senior senator of the majority party. The president pro tempore is the third person in succession to president of the United States, after the vice president of the United States and the president of the House of Representatives of the United States.

The current president pro tempore of the Senate is Chuck Grassley, from the Republican Party.

Why did slavery start in the colonies?
inna [77]
Slavery started because people liked having other people work for free, so they enslaved others. They were brought by ships from Africa. They would usually work on farms and ranches. The jobs were different because of the climate. One type of climate made it possible to grow cotton, another to grow tobacco, another for crops, and so on. They were important because they were free. Since wealthy land owners didn't have to pay workers, they got extremely rich because they had almost no losses at all.

From 1929 to 1939 the economic effects of a severe depression ravaged the world.
tatuchka [14]

Some factors of the Great Depression were the burst of the 1920s credit bubble in the United States as well as the overinflated investing market during the same decade. It helped cause WW2 by radicalising Germans (really by the Nazis) against the rest of the world who they already blamed for their troubles during the 20s.
