Question

  1. what constitutional principles (table ix) of the ancient romans are still believed in today by modern americans?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Table IX of the Roman Twelve Tables established the principle that all citizens are equal under the law (no special legal privileges for the elite) and the idea of due process/innocence until proven guilty. Modern American constitutional principles embrace equality before the law (enshrined in the 14th Amendment) and due process (found in the 5th and 14th Amendments), which directly trace back to this Roman legal foundation.

Answer:

The key constitutional principles from Roman Table IX still accepted by modern Americans are:

  1. The principle that all citizens are equal under the law (no group has inherent legal superiority).
  2. The concept of due process and the presumption of innocence (individuals are not guilty without proper legal proceedings).
