Answer:
1. The Sistine Chapel, or Cappella Sistina in Italian, is named after Sixtus IV, the pope who commissioned it in the 1470s.
2. Whoever said Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel’s ceiling on his back?
Contrary to popular belief, Michelangelo did not paint on his back. He and his assistants actually painted standing upright on wooden platforms Michelangelo himself had devised.
3.Michelangelo wanted nothing to do with the Sistine Chapel’s ceiling
In 1508, Pope Julius II, the nephew of Sixtus IV, decided to partly alter the decoration of the Sistine Chapel and asked Michelangelo, who was busy working on a marble tomb the pope himself had commissioned, to decorate the ceiling.
4. (Too much) nudity in the Sistine Chapel
Many years after completing the ceiling frescoes, Michelangelo returned to the Sistine Chapel to paint The Last Judgment on the end altar wall.
5. New popes have been elected in the Sistine Chapel since 1492 (as the sole venue only since 1870).

Explanation:
Thomas Jefferson objected to Alexander Hamilton's proposal for a national bank because: he interpreted the Constitution very strictly, and believed that the Constitution did not give the national government the power to establish a bank.

<span>The domino theory, which governed much of U.S. foreign policy beginning in the early 1950s, held that a communist victory in one nation would quickly lead to a chain reaction of communist takeovers in neighboring states. In Southeast Asia, the United States government used the domino theory to justify its support of a non-communist regime in South Vietnam against the communist government of North Vietnam, and ultimately its increasing involvement in the long-running Vietnam War (1954-75). In fact, the American failure to prevent a communist victory in Vietnam had much less of a global impact than had been assumed by the domino theory. Though communist regimes did arise in Laos and Cambodia after 1975, communism failed to spread throughout the rest of Southeast Asia.
I hope this was of help.
