History

The House of Representatives has grown much faster than the Senate due to the structure of the House. The House of Representatives is part of the legislative branch. Each state has representatives based on the population. The more population a state has, the more representatives they have in the House of Representatives.

However, the Senate ensures that all states have two Senators, regardless of population. This means that the maximum number of people in the Senate is 100.

The House of Representatives, on the other hand, can continually grow depending on a states population.

Because representation based on population, and the US Population has grown steadily throughout the years

( The more the population grows, the more representative we need, but we only got 100 senators , 2 for every state), this is why the representatives grown a lot faster than the senate

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

General Sani Abacha rose to power in Nigeria through the use of military force, overturning the country’s elections, and taking power after a period of governmental corruption and instability. Abacha maintained his rule with force backed up by militia, stealing over 3$ billion by the time he died in 1998, returning the country to civilian rule.

In Cambodia, and underground communist movement amassed power before launching an armed rebellion against Cambodia’s current government. After a civil war, the Khmer Rouge and its leader Saloth Sar, who adopted the pseudonym Pol Pot, marched into the nation’s capital, declaring their power. The Khmer Rouge maintained their power by executing intellectuals, teachers, merchants, and anyone in opposition to them. Money, private property, and religion were also abolished to form a communist agrarian society in which many more starved. This movement ended in 1998 with the death of Pol Pot.

Haiti's first dictator, François Duvalier, was able to rise to power after becoming minister of public health and being endeared by the country's people. After being elected prime minister, "Papa Doc," a name given to him by the peasant population, became a ruthless dictator. Duvalier maintained his power by suppressing the current Haitian military and forming his own parliamentary forces which terrorized the population. Before his death in 1971, Duvalier declared himself to be president for life and named his son to be his successor.
