Answer:

The 12 tables were a codification of the customary law of the tribes that founded the Roman state, but was selected and amended according to the needs of the ruling class. they had a small number of provisions that regulate the exchange of goods, provides for severe sanctions against debtors, strict formalism of procedures, attachment to religion, etc. The main part of the law is dedicated to court proceedings and sanctions for torts. It contains several provisions on family and inheritance law, on the law of obligations and a few more provisions on property. One table is dedicated to public law and religion.

Explanation:

Roman law arose only when an attempt was made to codify the law of the Twelve Tables, the oldest Roman law passed 451 BC at the request of the plebeians to limit the arbitrariness of patricians. It got its name from the fact that it was written on twelve bronze plates and displayed on the Forum.

The text has not been preserved, but it has been reconstructed, probably not in its entirety, on the basis of quotations in the works of Roman jurists.

Reflection Questions:

Which group contributed the most to American society and culture? Explain your answer using specific examples from the lesson.

The group that contributed the most to American society and culture is the Native Americans. They came up with the famous game lacrosse that is played by schools and other organizations. The natives also dyed beads that were traded and made into necklaces or incorporated them into dresses. The last thing they contributed to America is the unique names they made up. These names were used in U.S maps. Without these names then we would have named it ordinary and boring.  

Now it’s time to put on your thinking caps. Use the lesson and your life to answer the next question.

How has the role of children in society changed from colonial times to the present? (Hint: Do children still do the same things today as they did in colonial times? What is the same? What is different?)

Children now don’t really have to do the same things as the children in the past. Some things that were similar are having school from fall to spring. Another thing that is similar is doing chores. One thing that was different was the variety of chores they did. For example, girls made soap or clothing while boys worked on the farm. Children now depend on their parents to get the goods and needs we need. This means children don’t have to work on farms and rely on them.  

I got a 94% so fix my mistakes with what my teacher said... also please put these answers in your own words

 

What is the importance of Juba? Think about what music does for people. Or how Juba morphed over the years.  

Slavery doesn't exist so what are the rituals and their importance now?

Why did many workers participate in strikes following the war?
hammer [34]
Assuming you're referring to World War I, the main reason why many workers participated in strikes following the war is because the country had "de-mobilized" from the war, meaning that there were fewer jobs and lower wages.
