<u>WHAT</u>: POMPEII was a city of Ancient Rome.

<u>WHEN:</u> According to archaeologists and scientists who have studied the vestiges of this ancient city, it is believed that the first inhabitants of the area settled there in the 11th century BC. Although this is not the date of the foundation of the city, it would be closer to the seventh century BC.

<u>WHERE:</u> Pompeii is located a few kilometers from the city of Naples, housed at the foot of the volcano Vesuvius, one of the most transcendental volcanoes in the world given its history.

<u>HOW:</u> In the year 79 of our era Pompeii suffered one of the most violent natural disasters in the history of mankind. More than 2,000 people died instantly or were buried alive under a blanket of ash from the eruption of Vesuvius.

<u>BECAUSE</u>: It was buried by the violent eruption of Vesuvius on August 24 of the year 79 d. C.and many of its inhabitants died due to the pyroclastic flow. The current city of Pompeii rises nearby.

<u>BECAUSE IT IS IMPORTANT</u>: Its historical importance would not have gone beyond that of any other seat in the Roman world but for the terrible eruption of Vesuvius, which took place in 79 AD. As a consequence of the same, Pompeii and other places of the environs were buried by layers of lava and ashes. Many of the Pompeians were able to flee and protect their lives, but some of the inhabitants were buried and fossilized in time as well as the streets, temples, hot springs, homes or public buildings.

Pompeii was forgotten for more than fifteen centuries.

Concurrent powers are the powers held by both the federal and the state government. Delegated powers are the powers kept only with the central government and the reserved powers are the powers not given to any organ of the government.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Delegated (some of the time called enumerated or expressed) powers are explicitly allowed to the government in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution. This incorporates the ability to coin money, to regulate commerce, to announce war, to raise and keep up military, and to set up a Post Office.

Concurrent power is a political power independently exercisable by both federal and state governments in the same field of legislation. In the United States, examples of the concurrent powers shared by both the federal and state governments include the power to tax, build roads, and to create lower courts.

Reserved forces, residual powers, or residuary forces are the forces which are neither restricted or unequivocally given by law to any organ of government. Such powers, just as general intensity of fitness, are given since it is unfeasible to detail in enactment each demonstration permitted to be done by the state.
