<span>Reapportionment Act of 1929 on the House Representatives limited the number of seats in the House to 435. It actually just adjusted the amount of sits, but the passed bill did not restated the requirements of the previous acts.</span>

The Reapportionment Act of 1929 fixed the total number of representatives in 435, although the Congress maintains the power to change this number.

Each state obtains representation in the House proportional to its population, with the right to a minimum of one representative. Representatives are elected by uninominal majority scrutiny in most states and with a non-partisan general primary with a majority second round in three states. The most populous state, California, has 53 representatives. Each representative is elected for a period of two years and may be re-elected.

How did the mexican-american war lead to greater sectionalism within the united states government?
gogolik [260]

There was great tension between pro-slavery and anti-slavery representatives over how new territories won would handle the issue of slavery.

The Mexican-American War and the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, forced onto the remnant Mexican government,  drew some criticism in the U.S. for their casualties, monetary cost, and heavy-handedness. Furthermore, the question of how to treat the new acquisitions also intensified the debate over slavery and in many ways inflamed it, as potential westward expansion of the institution took an increasingly central and heated theme in national debates preceding the American Civil War.

Why were elders from each lineage
Triss [41]

Answer:

In stateless societies, the elderly of each lineage were responsible for resolving disputes between lineages or individuals through practices in which the entire community was involved. Meetings were held in which both sides exposed their positions and perceptions of the conflict situation in front of the entire community.

Taking into account the knowledge that the experience gives, the elderly have legitimacy to make judgments of the events that have occurred and it is through consensus that it is established what will be done. There is a tendency for people to adhere to the positions of the elderly because they are considered wise and relevant.
