How did rome treat the people from lands in conquered and gaining control of italy
astraxan [27]

The general people were given the opportunity to watch and play lavish games and were also given equal share of food as the other general Roman people. The Italians were won over by the Romans in the same way.

Why do you think the speaker of the house is next in line to become president in the event of the death of both the president an
Vaselesa [24]

The Speaker of the House is next in line because the House of Representatives was traditionally seen as the "people's house" or the most Democratic house. It wasn't until the early 20th Century that the Senate was elected by the people directly, so the leader of the more Democratic house was a fairer pick in the line of succession.
