Georgia sent 3,000 troops to restore the British Empire.
The United States of America and the Soviet Union installed a "hot line" for the purpose of faster communication between the heads of states of the two countries. Before the "hot line" was implemented in June of the year 1963, any communication between the leaders of the two countries took a long time and this could result in starting of a nuclear war at any time. To avert such dangerous situations the leaders of the two countries came together to start this system. The importance of the system was felt by both countries during the Cuban Missile Crisis in the year 1962.
Established by Article I of the Constitution, the Legislative Branch consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate, which together form the United States Congress. The Constitution grants Congress the sole authority to enact legislation and declare war, the right to confirm or reject many Presidential appointments, and substantial investigative powers.
The House of Representatives is made up of 435 elected members, divided among the 50 states in proportion to their total population. In addition, there are 6 non-voting members, representing the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and four other territories of the United States. The presiding officer of the chamber is the Speaker of the House, elected by the Representatives. He or she is third in the line of succession to the Presidency.
Members of the House are elected every two years and must be 25 years of age, a U.S. citizen for at least seven years, and a resident of the state (but not necessarily the district) they represent.
