They made them short so a president would not serve for his lifetime if he wanted to and they made it more than one or two years so there wouldn’t be an election every year(cuz like that people most likely wouldn’t vote )and so the president had enough time to do what he would like to do for the country

Answer:

To limit the tendency to Run for life

Explanation:

elective terms of office were made purposely short seldom more than one or two years because of the tendency of elective officers to run for life and also the conditions for voting-in elective officers where kind of difficult to be maintained,

also it was made short so that elected officers who do not perform very well can be voted out of office in a shorter time by the electorate. and also the short time given will ensure that elected officers perform very well while in office to get a re run

How did writing play a role in everyday life for the ancient Indians? help please I will do anything!!
Debora [2.8K]
Its use is not known with certainty and all that we think we know is based on archaeological evidence alone. Some of the seals may have been used as amulets or talismans, but they also had a practical function as a marker for identification. Since writing in ancient times is generally associated with elites trying to record and control transactions, it is also believed that the Indus Script was used as an administrative tool. There are also examples of this script being used on clay tags attached to bundles of goods that were traded between merchants; some of these clay tags have been found in the Mesopotamia region, well outside the Indus Valley, a testimony of how wide goods travelled in ancient times.
