In a unanimous decision, the Court held that Congress had the power to incorporate the bank and that Maryland could not tax instruments of the national government employed in the execution of constitutional powers. Writing for the Court, Chief Justice Marshall noted that Congress possessed unenumerated powers not explicitly outlined in the Constitution. Marshall also held that while the states retained the power of taxation, "the Constitution and the laws made in pursuance thereof are supreme. . .they control the Constitution and laws of the respective states, and cannot be controlled by them."

Experts agree on two basic reasons for French Emperor Napoleon decided to sell the huge Louisiana territory to the United States. The first reason, France needed a lot of money. It had deep debts as a result of many wars. Secondly, the Lousiana territory was immense and was too far away from France, so it was very difficult to defend.

These circumstances were an advantage to President Thomas Jefferson, who sent James Madison to help Robert Livingston (the Minister to France) in order to accelerate the negotiations to close the Louisiana Purchase in 1803.

OverLord2011 [107]

Congress was completely ineffective in preventing the Civil War because the Southern states still seceded. This option is best drawn because of the fact that that in the case of the 2nd option, they did not delay the war in any way. It was only a matter of time until the war happened, and nothing could have stopped it from happening. Once the Southern states made the decision to secede, the war was inevitable.
