The answer is Santo Domingo. It is the oldest permanent European settlement in the Americas.

 

EXPLANATION

 

Santo Domingo is the capital of the Dominican Republic. Santo Domingo is located at the mouth of Ozama River, on the southeast coast of Hispaniola island. Santo Domingo is the oldest permanent Europian settlement city in the Western Hemisphere. Other than that, Santo Domingo is also known as the oldest Roman Catholic archbishopric that is located in America.

 

At first, Santo Domingo was founded by Bartholomew Colombus in 1496. Bartholomew Colombus was the brother of Christopher Colombus. When first was found, the original site of Santo Domingo was at the left bank of the Ozama River. It was first called Nueva Isabela to honor Queen Isabella I of Spain.  

 

The place was then destroyed by a big hurricane. In 1502, the place was rebuilt and the present location is in the right bank of Ozama River. The place has become a starting point for most exploration and expeditions of the Spanish. The Spanish also do conquest on other islands of the adjacent mainland and West Indies.  

 

Santo Domingo is the main commercial, financial, and industrial center of the country. The industrial development of the country is highly influenced by the construction of hydroelectric dams. The whole country's most important industry is metallurgy, and it is located in Santo Domingo. Santo Domingo’s economy has grown in the late 20th century because of their tourism.

Why do the justices disagree on the meaning of the Constitution?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The justices disagree based on their own personal and political believes. Justices are appointed by presidents, which results in justices coming from different backgrounds and political believes. The diferences in political part, backgrounds and belifs reutls in differing opinions when it comes to the meaning of the constitution.

Explanation:

The  Supreme Court  takes its powers from Article III  of the Constitution.  Article III, §1  provides  that  "the  judicial power of the United States,  shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish."  In accordance with this provision, the Suprem Court of the United States was created by the authority of the Judiciary Act of 1789.  The Court met for the first time on February 2, 1790.

The Court currently consists of a chief justice and eight associate justices, each with equal voting power to the chief's.  (The number of justices has varied, beginning with six, then increasing to seven in 1801, and finally to nine in 1869.) Each justice is nominated by the President, confirmed by the Senate, and serves for life.  The Senate confirmation process begins with hearings before the Judiciary Committee and ends with a vote of the full Senate.  A simple majority is required for confirmation.  Justices who commit "high crimes or misdemeanors" are subject to impeachment and removal from office.  

The Term of the Court begins, by law, on the first Monday in October.  In a typical year, decisions are announced in all the argued cases by the end of June.  An average of about 7,000 to 8,000 petitions are filed with the Court over the course of a single Term; of those only about 100 or so are set for full briefing and oral argument.  In addition to the petitions, another 1,200 or so applications (e.g., a request for an immediate stay of a decision below) are filed each year.  These applications can be acted upon by a single justice.
