The legislative branch. Here is how it works: The legislative branch makes laws. The Senate and House of Representatives are both part of Congress, which is part of the legis â¦ lative branch. The executive branch enforces the laws and vetoes them. The president is part of the executive branch. Finally, the judicial branch judges people who break the law.
A century (from the Latin centum, meaning one hundred; abbreviated c.) is 100 years. Centuries are numbered ordinally in the English language along with many others (e.g. the 7th century AD/CE).
