A contract is an agreement, usually written out on a legal document, in which it states terms and agreements, as well as rewards that would be given at the end when the terms are met.
For example, a contract for assassination may be posted out in the black market. An assassin would then agree to take on the requirement of the contract. If it is met, the payment would be given to the assassin. If not, then the contract becomes void. This makes contracts important because the terms and everything is written down, and can be looked on for future references.

In a unanimous decision, the Court held that Congress had the power to incorporate the bank and that Maryland could not tax instruments of the national government employed in the execution of constitutional powers. Writing for the Court, Chief Justice Marshall noted that Congress possessed unenumerated powers not explicitly outlined in the Constitution. Marshall also held that while the states retained the power of taxation, "the Constitution and the laws made in pursuance thereof are supreme. . .they control the Constitution and laws of the respective states, and cannot be controlled by them."
