Answer 1

It is true that for the first 50 years after the ratification of the  Constitution, Representatives and Senators usually only  served for short periods of time because of difficulty in  travelling and accommodations.

The reason for this is that the travelling during that time from one place to another was very tough. Moreover the condition of the capital of the United States of America was very bad and the representatives chose to return to their local offices.
