At the time when the United States of America decided to build the canal, Panama was a part of Columbia. Today, the canal is an essential route for maintaining good maritime trade links. It can take about eight hours to complete a full journey along the Panama canal.
Both plans involved how the new Constitution would define representation in Congress. The Virginia Plan proposed that the number of delegates be based upon population, thus favoring larger states with more people. The New Jersey Plan proposed that each state have an equal number of delegates, thus favoring smaller states with fewer people.
Under the Virginia Plan, a state like Virginia would have had a much greater say in Congress than smaller New Jersey since Virginia had a larger population. Under the New Jersey Plan, New Jerseyans would have had a disproportionate say relative to Virginians. Consider this, if each state had two delegates (under the NJ Plan) let's say New Jersey had 500,000 people and Virginia had 1,000,000 (not the real numbers). With two delegates, New Jersey would have had 1 say in Congress per 250,000 voters while Virginia would have had 1 say in Congress per 500,000 voters.
These differences were resolved by creating a bicameral legislature. Today, the House of Representatives is a remnant of the Virginia Plan. States with larger populations have more seats in the House than those with smaller populations. For example, California has far more Representatives than Wyoming meaning California has a much greater say in the House. The Senate, on the other hand, is a remnant of the New Jersey Plan. Each state has two Senators regardless of population, which means each state has an equal say. Again, California has two Senators and Wyoming has two Senators despite the fact that California is much larger than Wyoming - this gives Wyoming a much greater say per voters than California. No law can pass through Congress without approval from both chambers of Congress, which means that smaller states are not overpowered, while larger states still have the ability to set the agenda.
The correct answer is D.
The 1998 United States embassy bombing occurred on August 7, eight years to the day after US troop were ordered to Saudi Arabia in the aftermath of Iraq's invasion of Kuwait.
200 people were killed in nearly simultaneous truck bomb explosions in two East African cities, one in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and one in Nairobi, Kenya.
Al Queda was liked to these attacks as Osama Bin Laden considered the presence of US troops in the Saudi Arabia, home to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, a great offence. One theory says that they were carried out as revenge for the US involvement in the extradition and torturing of members of the Egyptian Jihad.
After the attacks, Osama bin Laden had been put on the ten-most-wanted fugitives list.
