A taping system (aka recording device) installed in the office of the President helped lead to the downfall of President Nixon. While Nixon was president, a recording device was installed in his office to record phone and in-person conversations. When being accused of having ties to the Watergate break-in, the Supreme Court ruled that Nixon must release his taped conversations.

The Aztecs demanded that a tribute in goods be paid to them, after they conquered a specific land. As long as the tribute was paid (which ensured their financial position), it was beneficial for them if the conquered people didn't revolt (too much), and if they didn't need to extend funds and infrastructure to govern them- that way they could pay little and maximize their gain. It was practical to reinstall the old rulers in the conquered lands, if they were sure of their loyalty, as it would minimize conflict and need for intervention (such as sending a lot of people into the new land) and maximize their profit.
Several disputes arose between President Abraham Lincoln and Congress regarding who had the responsibility to develop a Reconstruction plan for the South. According to Lincoln, the South had rebelled, not SECEDED. Therefore, he felt that as President of the United States, he alone had the authority to enforce laws and reconstruct the South. Congress viewed the South as a defeated military territory. Congress exercised POLITICAL control over such FOREIGN territories. Therefore, Congress believed that the responsibility for reconstructing the South fell to them.
