Answer:
The building of the Transcontinental Railroad had a huge impact on American life and economy. It greatly sped up travel time. Before the railroad, you needed around six months to travel from the coast of California to New York and after it started with the operation you needed only around one week. This meant more expansion of the industry, trade, businesses, and expansion of populated areas. Unfortunately many Native American tribes were displaced and the US military was called in to fight the tribes.
<u>Marbury VS Madison</u>
John Marshall, in his decision, is in charge of pacifying the issue. Marshall argues, in short, that, in the hierarchy of laws, the US Constitution rules and the courts, as well as the other departments, are bound by it. Thus any law contrary to the Constitution should be declared void.
Thus, Marshall incidentally (incidentally) decides the unconstitutionality of Section 13 of the Judiciary Act, to the extent that it contravenes the precepts of the American Constitution. The unconstitutionality of a law was declared without the analysis of the merit itself. Note that Marshall, in making such a decision not on the merits, does not, in theory, give a favorable understanding to either of the poles, so as not to generate for him political conflicts with both parties.
<u>
The Whiskey Rebellion</u>
It was a "tax protest" in the United States, beginning in 1791 and culminating in an insurrection in 1794. The rebellion took place primarily in Washington, Pennsylvania, in the Monongahela Valley during the presidency of George Washington under the command of the American revolutionary war veteran Major James McFarlane.
