Why does the American law have many Latin terms

History
1 answer:
stich3 [128]3 years ago
4 0

American Law is heavily influenced by British Common Law which was in turn influenced by Roman law, as England was conquered by the Romans and the classical societies were incredibly influential during the Enlightenment.

As a result, latin terms have trickled down over the ages and have remained an integral part of "legalese"

What reasons does Diamond give for why the encounter at Cajamarca turns out the way that it does? (Be sure to address technology
julia-pushkina [17]

The first encounter between Francisco Pizarro and his advancing Spanish army and the Inca ruler Atahuallpa took place in Cajamarca, and Jared Diamond addresses it in Guns, Germs, and Steel.

According to Diamonds, the Europeans were the first to have firearms, germs, and steel due to their geographic location and historical background, allowing them to conquer other less advanced civilizations.

The element of surprise was on the side of the Spanish. The Incas had no reason to believe the Spanish would be so treasonous. The Native Americans had no defense against the Spanish's use of European-style weapons like firearms.

The Spaniards start off by ambushing the Incas, discharging their weapons, and emerging on horseback from hiding. The conquistadors attacked the Incas with their swords as they rode because they were trembling and looking rather than holding their ground.

If the Incas had stood their ground against the cavalry, they might have defeated them by sheer numbers if they had more knowledge of this kind of combat.
