Answer 1

Answer:

All of the given statements are true of both the Roman Republic and the United States, except Legislators are appointed for life.

Explanation:

• Unlike the Roman Republic, the legislators in the United States are not elected to serve for their entire life after contesting and winning the election only once.

• To hold the position of the legislator, the person has to get re-elected after every six years in order to secure the position.

• In the Roman Republic, a person once elected as a legislator held the position as long as he lived.

• Elections were only conducted when the first person holding the position left the position, retired, or died.
