William Marbury's  complain was that he was not appointed to the judge position given to him by President John Adams. After Adams lost his re-election campaign, he attempted to appoint several judges to ensure that federalists maintained power in the federal government. However, the commissions were not delivered before the end of Adam's presidency.

When Jefferson took over the presidency, he refused to give these commissions to judges like Marbury. This is how the controversy began. This ultimately lead to the Supreme Court case Marbury vs. Madison, which resulted in the establishment of judicial review.

How did the bubonic plague effect europe?
astra-53 [7]

It started in China in the early 1330's. The plague mainly affected rodents and fleas, but since China did trades with Asia and Europe, these countries were soon also affected.

In 1347, Italian merchant ships returned from the Black Sea to Europe. Many on board were already dying from the plague.

The fleas began to affect Europe's people, which allowed it to spread rapidly among the people.

The Bubonic plague was a period in history when Europe and much of the world's population was reduced.

What are two examples of criminal cases handled by state court
kati45 [8]

The answer is criminal cases against persons and criminal cases against property.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The state court can handle criminal cases against persons like murders and assaults. Damage to property and thefts and robberies are also heard in the state court. The state court has its own criminal status, its own court system and prosecutors.

The state court handles a greater number of crimes as opposed to the federal government. However, the states have to ensure that the criminal offenses within the state boundaries are only handled by the state courts.

Why did Europe sell Opium to the Chinese?
kobusy [5.1K]

Explanation:

Opium was first introduced to China by Turkish and Arab traders in the late 6th or early 7th century CE. Taken orally to relieve tension and pain, the drug was used in limited quantities until the 17th century. At that point, the practice of smoking tobacco spread from North America to China, and opium-smoking soon became popular throughout the country. Opium addiction increased, and opium importations grew rapidly during the first century of the Qing dynasty (1644–1911/12). By 1729 it had become such a problem that the Yongzheng emperor (ruled 1722–35) prohibited the sale and smoking of opium. That failed to hamper the trade, and in 1796 the Jiaqing emperor outlawed opium importation and cultivation. Despite such decrees, however, the opium trade continued to flourish.

Early in the 18th century, the Portuguese found that they could import opium from India and sell it in China at a considerable profit. By 1773 the British had discovered the trade, and that year they became the leading suppliers of the Chinese market. The British East India Company established a monopoly on opium cultivation in the Indian province of Bengal, where they developed a method of growing opium poppies cheaply and abundantly. Other Western countries also joined in the trade, including the United States, which dealt in Turkish as well as Indian opium.

Britain and other European countries undertook the opium trade because of their chronic trade imbalance with China. There was tremendous demand in Europe for Chinese tea, silks, and porcelain pottery, but there was correspondingly little demand in China for Europe’s manufactured goods and other trade items. Consequently, Europeans had to pay for Chinese products with gold or silver. The opium trade, which created a steady demand among Chinese addicts for opium imported by the West, solved this chronic trade imbalance.
