Answer:
If the two plates are of equal density, they usually push up against each other, forming a mountain chain. If they are of unequal density, one plate usually sinks beneath the other in a subduction zone.
Explanation:
Convergent boundaries is where two plates (a continental plate and the ocean floor) get "pushed together" by subduction. If they have the same density, they will be pushed up together creating a mountain (the Himalaya's mountain is a great example). If the plates have different density then the one with more density overlaps the other.
Alea iacta est ("The die is cast") is a variation of a Latin phrase (iacta alea est) attributed by Suetonius to Julius Caesar who pronounced it in the year 49 B.C. when he was leading his army across the Rubicon river in the current territories of Northern Italy. Subsequently, he entered in Italy heading his army and defying the Roman Senate and it meant the beginning of the civil war versus Pompey and the Optimates.
- Plutarch, referred to the same event in his written testimonies and reported the phrase but stating it was pronounced in Greek instead of Latin and that its translation meant: <em>'Let the die be cast'.</em>
- Suetonius described the same situation, reporting a very similar phrase but not exactly the same. Let's include the exact excerpt of his writings where he did so.
<em>Caesar: '... iacta alea est,' inquit.</em>
<em>Caesar said, "The die has been cast."</em>
Thefore there are two very similar versions of the same historical events. Usually the Latin version is the most widely known, as the Latin language was more widespread all over Europe and gave rise to all the current family of Latin languages (Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, etc).
Answer:
A bicameral legislature resolved the tension between the states because they couldn't agree on the size of the Congress because of different states' sizes. The main conflicts were between large and small states.
Explanation:
The bicameral legislature helped to equilibrate representation in Congress. The Senate has two senators per state and the House of Representatives is composed of representatives proportional to states' populations.
The idea of a bicameral legislature also helped to carry forward the system of checks and balances between powers. A unilateral legislature would create a potential for power concentration.
