The Gibbons v. Ogden court case in a nutshell:
Ogden had a monopoly on operating steamboats on the Lower Mississippi.
Gibbons, who had a federal liscence to operate steamboats, tried to start business there and was sued by Ogden.
The ruling was that Gibbons would be allowed to operate there, which gave precedent to federal law over state law.
World War II also involved Asia and Australia while World War I just affected the US and Europe.
1. George Washington, James Madison, George Mason, Roger Sherman.
2. Federalism, checks and balances, seperation of powers.
