The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Former President Theodore Roosevelt's decision to participate influenced the election and the Progressive Party in that another serious contender participated in the disputed election of 1912. US citizens had a pull of four candidates that polarized the election in which the winner was Democratic candidate Woodrow Wilson.

Elected candidate Woodrow Wilson ended up with 435 electoral votes and 6,293,454 popular votes. Former US President Theodore Roosevelt finished in second place with 88 electoral votes and 4,119,207 popular votes.

One reason for this result was the fact that the Republicans faced a serious internal division in the party when Republicans decided that William Taft was going to be its candidate. That is why Roosevelt decided to compete for the Progressive party, taking with him many members and votes that formerly belonged to the Republican party.

How did julius caesar change rome from a republic to an empire?
masya89 [10]

Julius Caesar was a great military general who, after having been removed from his governorship of Gaul by the Roman senate, staged a coup and took control of Rome by force, the person with whom he was once aligned to take control of the empire. Although he is often portrayed as a tyrannical dictator, Julius Caesar was somewhat of a champion of the people. He eliminated the heavy taxes levied on farmers and granted any Roman citizen with three or more sons land. He also made the dealings of the Roman senate public by posting an account of them for the public to read and realigned the Roman calendar to coincide with the seasons. He also declared himself ruler for life.

Since his lineage could be traced to the founding of Rome, the role of the Caesars came to be associated with the role of the gods, who had more power than senators in the eyes of Romans. All of these actions infuriated the senate, which felt that he had compromised its power. This ultimately led to the senate attack on Julius Caesar that killed him.
