HW-Rev. War.
The American Revolutionary War was won through a combination of strategic military victories by American forces and support from international allies like France. Key battles like Trenton, Saratoga, and Yorktown helped shift momentum towards American independence. France's entry into the war in 1778 after the American victory at Saratoga and subsequent financial support proved critical to the colonial victory over the more powerful British military. The war ultimately ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1783, which recognized American independence.

The American Revolutionary War was won through a combination of strategic military victories by American forces and support from European allies like France. Key battles like Trenton, Saratoga, and Yorktown weakened the British military position. Meanwhile, the Americans utilized local knowledge and guerilla tactics to offset the strengths of the British army. The entry of France into the war after the American victory at Saratoga turned the tide in favor of the colonists and ultimately led to British recognition of American independence in the 1783 Treaty of Paris.
French and indian war
The document provides background information on the French and Indian War (1754-1763), including:
- The key parties in the war were the French, British, and various Native American groups, who fought over land disputes in the Ohio River Valley.
- As a result of their victory, the British gained control of French territory in Canada and much of the North American mainland east of the Mississippi River under the Treaty of Paris in 1763.
- However, the war increased British debt and tensions with Native American tribes. It also united the American colonies in war but created resentment towards subsequent British policies like the Proclamation Line of 1763 restricting westward colonial expansion.
Causes of the american revolution
The colonists met at the First Continental Congress in 1774 to protest British taxes by writing a letter to the King of England. They said the taxes violated colonist rights and needed to be repealed to restore harmony. The period of Salutary Neglect, where Britain loosely governed the colonies, had ended. On April 19, 1775, the "Shot Heard Round the World" occurred as British troops marched to Concord to seize weapons. Colonists fought back at Lexington and Concord in what became known as the Battle of Lexington and Concord. The Second Continental Congress met in 1775 and decided the colonies should officially separate from Britain. Thomas Jefferson was selected to write the Declaration of Independence explaining the reasons

The War of 1812 was caused by tensions between the United States and Britain over maritime rights and the impressment of American sailors. Britain and France were engaged in the Napoleonic Wars and interfered with American merchant shipping. While President Madison attempted diplomacy, harassment of American shipping and the kidnapping of sailors led pro-war factions to push for a declaration of war in 1812. The war ended in stalemate by the Treaty of Ghent in 1814, but the Battle of New Orleans solidified American national pride after the war.

Europeans colonized North America for religious, economic, and political reasons: to convert native people to Christianity, acquire wealth for themselves and their home countries, and increase their home countries' power. They settled in various regions, including Spain, Africa, Japan, China, and established colonies. Contact between European settlers and native Americans led to an exchange of ideas, diseases, and conflicts, which sometimes resulted in wars or treaties.

Colonial taxation
In the 1760s and 1770s, Great Britain began taxing the colonies in order to help pay off war debts without colonial representation in Parliament, angering many colonists. The Stamp Act of 1765 was one of the first direct taxes that required a stamp be purchased for newspapers and other paper goods, leading many colonists to rebel against "taxation without representation." Further acts by the British, including the Intolerable Acts punishing Boston for the 1773 Tea Party, increased tensions and helped set the stage for the American Revolutionary War.

The French and Indian War (1754-1763) was a conflict between Britain and France over colonial territories in North America. As a result of their victory, Britain gained control of French territories east of the Mississippi River through the Treaty of Paris in 1763. In an attempt to manage tensions with Native Americans, Britain then issued the Proclamation of 1763 which prohibited colonial settlement west of the Appalachian Mountains. However, the costs of the war led Britain to pass new taxes on the American colonies through acts like the Stamp Act of 1765, sparking colonial protests and resentment at "taxation without representation", key events that contributed to the American Revolution.

1) The French and Indian War (1754-1763) removed European rivals from North America and led to new British taxes to pay war debts, straining the relationship between Britain and its colonies.
2) The Sugar Act (1764) and Stamp Act (1765) were the first direct taxes imposed by Britain on the colonies, sparking protests and boycotts by American patriots like James Otis.
3) The Townshend Acts (1767) imposed new taxes on goods imported into the colonies, renewing tensions, while the Boston Massacre (1770) further
The Road to Revolution
The document summarizes the key events that led to the American Revolution. It describes how the French and Indian War increased Britain's debt and caused tensions between the colonies and Britain. It then outlines the major acts passed by Britain, such as the Stamp Act and Intolerable Acts, that angered the colonies by imposing taxes without representation. This led the colonies to unite in protest and hold the First and Second Continental Congresses, culminating in the Declaration of Independence and start of the Revolutionary War.
The American Revolution. The formation of the United States.
The American colonies were unhappy with British rule and taxation without representation. Tensions rose and led to events like the Boston Massacre and Boston Tea Party. The Second Continental Congress formed the Continental Army under George Washington. On July 4th, 1776, the colonies declared independence from Britain with the signing of the Declaration of Independence. After several years of fighting, the American Revolutionary War ended in 1781 with the British surrender at Yorktown, leading to American independence.
Revolutionary war
The document summarizes key events leading up to the American Revolution:
1. Tensions rose between the British and colonists after costly wars and new taxes like the Stamp Act and Tea Act with "no taxation without representation."
2. Acts of protest like the Boston Tea Party were met with British retaliation through coercive acts closing Boston harbor.
3. The First Continental Congress met to discuss problems but Britain did not change, so the Second Continental Congress formed the Continental Army and moved toward independence.
4. Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" pamphlet and Thomas Jefferson's Declaration of Independence formally declared separation from Britain, starting the Revolutionary War.
American Revolutionary War Review
The document provides an overview of the key events that led to the American colonies declaring independence from Great Britain, including several taxes imposed by Parliament that angered the colonists, protests and boycotts organized in response, and violent clashes like the Boston Massacre. It discusses the First and Second Continental Congresses where representatives debated independence, and covers Thomas Paine's influential pamphlet "Common Sense" and Thomas Jefferson writing the Declaration of Independence, which was finally signed on July 4th, 1776.
Colonies
The document discusses the British government's interest in colonizing the New World, including establishing colonies for land, power, raw materials, and tax revenue. It describes how the British created a colonial empire through joint-stock companies and granting land to colonists. Key colonies discussed are Jamestown in 1607 and the Pilgrims in 1620. The relationship between Britain and its colonies gradually became strained due to taxes imposed after the French and Indian War, leading to protests and the American Revolution.
Road To Revolution
1. French fur traders settled west of the Appalachian Mountains and established good relations with Native Americans. British settlers later disrupted this relationship, leading to the French and Indian War between England and France with Native American allies on both sides. England defeated France, gaining control of North American lands east of the Mississippi River.
2. In response to the costs of the war, Parliament levied new taxes on the colonies through various acts, angering colonists and leading to acts of resistance like boycotts of British goods. The Boston Massacre and Tea Party increased tensions, leading Parliament to pass the Intolerable Acts closing Boston harbor and restricting colonial self-government.
Causes of the American Revolution
The document summarizes several acts passed by the British Parliament between 1763 and 1774 that taxed and restricted the American colonies, angering colonists and leading to increased unrest and organization of protests. It describes the Proclamation of 1763 that drew a boundary line to restrict westward expansion, the Sugar Act of 1764 that taxed imports without colonial representation. Further acts like the Stamp Act of 1765 and Townshend Acts of 1767 imposed additional taxes, while the Quartering Acts of 1765 required colonists to house British soldiers. Acts like the Intolerable Acts of 1774 punished the Boston Tea Party, increasing colonial unity in opposition to British policies.
The stamp act and quartering act (1)
1) After the French and Indian War, Britain imposed taxes on the American colonies through acts like the Stamp Act and Quartering Act to raise money to pay off war debts.
2) The Stamp Act in particular outraged colonists by taxing all printed materials, and they protested with slogans like "no taxation without representation" since they lacked representation in British parliament.
3) Colonists responded to these taxes through boycotts organized by groups like the Sons of Liberty and sometimes violent protests, which ultimately led Britain to repeal the Stamp Act in 1766.

Age of revolutions
The document summarizes the key causes of the American Revolution, including the French and Indian War, the Proclamation of 1763, taxation acts like the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts, and events like the Boston Massacre and Boston Tea Party. These events increased tensions between the colonists and British and ultimately led the colonists to declare independence and start the Revolutionary War.
Causes of the American Revolution
The British government passed several laws in the 1760s and 1770s that taxed and restricted the American colonies without colonial representation in Parliament, angering the colonists and leading to increased protests. The passage of the Intolerable Acts in 1774, which punished Boston for the Tea Party, caused the colonies to unite in their opposition to British rule. The colonies agreed to meet and discuss solutions, setting the stage for the First Continental Congress and the move towards independence.
American Revolution with timeline.pptx
The document summarizes key events leading up to and during the American Revolution, including Britain passing taxes on the colonies without representation which angered colonists and led to protests. The Boston Tea Party and Intolerable Acts further increased tensions, leading to the first battles of the Revolutionary War at Lexington and Concord. After gaining independence, Americans faced challenges in governance under the Articles of Confederation and ultimately created a new Constitution with checks and balances and protections for individual rights in the form of the Bill of Rights.
Revolution Review 8th 2014

Hw#33 labor unions
Labor unions used collective bargaining and strikes to attempt to improve working conditions for workers. Through collective bargaining, unions would negotiate with employers to reach agreements on issues like wages, hours, and safety conditions. If negotiations failed, unions would call strikes as a tactic to put pressure on employers. However, early strikes were often met with violence from employers, police, and use of federal troops. Over time, unions continued to organize and use strikes to gain bargaining power and protections, such as the Wagner Act which legally protected the right to unionize.
Hw#31
Industrialization and urbanization in the United States had some negative impacts. Industrialization led to poor working conditions in factories and pollution from manufacturing. Urbanization resulted in overcrowded cities with inadequate housing, infrastructure, and public services for the large populations that migrated to urban areas for work in the late 19th century.
Hw#28
The document discusses whether late 19th century American industrialists should be remembered as "robber barons" or "captains of industry". It provides context on trusts, monopolies, and laissez-faire economic policies that allowed businesses like Carnegie Steel, Standard Oil, and J.P. Morgan's companies to consolidate power with little government interference. While some viewed the industrialists' tactics critically and called them robber barons, others maintained they acted as captains of industry by increasing productivity and jobs.
Hw#4 principles of the constitution
The document outlines the six key principles of the US Constitution:
1. Separation of powers which divides government into three branches
2. Checks and balances where each branch limits the power of the others through veto powers and overrides
3. Popular sovereignty whereby the government derives its power from the people
4. Republicanism ensuring government is run by elected representatives of the people
5. Federalism dividing power between national and state governments
6. Supremacy of national laws and judicial review giving the national government authority over states and the Supreme Court power to invalidate laws.
Hw#4 principles of the constitution
The document outlines the six key principles of the US Constitution:
1. Separation of powers which divides the government into three branches.
2. Checks and balances where each branch limits the power of the others through veto powers, judicial oversight, and legislative overrides.
3. Popular sovereignty which establishes that the government's authority comes from the people.
Hw#4 mercantilism
Mercantilism was an economic system where countries aimed to export more than they imported in order to accumulate wealth. Under this system, colonies provided raw materials to their "mother country" since importing goods was discouraged. Great Britain passed laws like the Navigation Acts to enforce mercantilism and benefit themselves. However, they needed more labor from colonies to produce goods like wood and cotton. This led to the growth of the transatlantic slave trade, as slaves provided a source of free labor that could meet the increasing demands of mercantilism.
Hw#31 immigration
The document discusses three waves of immigration to the United States: Old immigrants from northern Europe between 1600-1850 who settled on farms in the Midwest; New immigrants from southern and eastern Europe between 1860-1920 who moved to cities in the Northeast and worked in factories and mines; and modern immigrants since 1965 from Latin America and Asia. It notes the reasons for immigration included economic opportunities, religious/political persecution, and the promise of freedoms in the US. New immigrants initially arrived at Ellis Island or Angel Island and faced inspections before entering the country. Their expectations of America contrasted with the difficult living conditions they encountered in urban tenements and sweatshops. The massive immigration during this period resulted in a population shift from rural to urban
Washington-DuBois-Garvey
This document discusses different approaches taken by Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Marcus Garvey to address problems faced by African Americans after the Reconstruction era. Washington advocated for vocational training and cooperation between blacks and whites to achieve economic prosperity and social equality. Du Bois argued for consistent advocacy of civil and social rights to ensure equal opportunities and safety. Garvey promoted the creation of black nations in Africa as the only solution due to overcrowding in America threatening African Americans. Students are asked to determine which approach they feel would be most effective.
Reconstruction
This document discusses the Supreme Court case Plessy v. Ferguson (1896). The key details are:
- In 1890, Louisiana passed a law requiring "equal but separate accommodations" for black and white races on railway trains.
- In 1892, Homer Plessy, who was of mixed race, refused to move to the segregated car for black passengers and was arrested.
- The case went to the Supreme Court to determine if the law violated the 13th and 14th Amendments.
- The Court ruled against Plessy, establishing the "separate but equal" doctrine that allowed racial segregation if facilities were equal, which effectively upheld Jim Crow laws.
Lincoln's actions ppt
Lincoln tried to preserve the Union during the Civil War in several ways:
1) In his first inaugural address, he pledged there would be no war unless the South started it and that his goal was to preserve the Union and stop the spread of slavery, not necessarily end it.
2) He suspended habeas corpus in 1861 to arrest Confederate sympathizers and prevent rebellion.
3) He issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, which freed all slaves in rebelling Confederate states and changed the purpose of the war to one of freeing slaves in addition to preserving the Union.
4) He called for a military draft in 1863 to bolster the Union army.
Slavery compromises
The document summarizes several compromises that were attempted in the United States in the 1800s to address the issue of expanding slavery into new western territories:
- The Missouri Compromise of 1820 allowed Missouri to enter the union as a slave state but banned slavery in territories above the 36°30' parallel, except Missouri.
- The Compromise of 1850 admitted California as a free state, organized Utah and New Mexico with popular sovereignty, and strengthened the Fugitive Slave Act.
- The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 also organized the territories of Kansas and Nebraska with popular sovereignty, fueling tensions and violence known as "Bleeding Kansas" over the slavery issue.
Sectionalism
The document discusses sectionalism in the United States brought about by the westward expansion and the issue of whether new territories should enter the union as slave or free states. It provides discussion questions and tasks for students, including having them read positions from Calhoun and Webster on the issue and respond with a mock tweet agreeing with one of them.
Hw#26 abolition movement ppt
The document summarizes key aspects of the abolition movement in the United States, including the conditions slaves faced, Nat Turner's rebellion, and prominent abolitionist leaders and their efforts. It describes the daily hardships of slaves, such as living in poor conditions without rights. It also outlines Turner's rebellion and the increased restrictions placed on slaves afterwards. Finally, it discusses influential abolitionists like Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Harriet Tubman, and their roles in advocating for emancipation through newspapers, speeches, books, and aiding the Underground Railroad.
Homestead & pacific railway acts copy
The United States encouraged settlement of the West through two key laws:
1. The Homestead Act of 1862 gave land to settlers who farmed the land for 5 years, aiming to encourage migration. However, many struggled to meet requirements or afford keeping the lands.
2. The Pacific Railway Act provided land grants and funding to railroad companies to build a transcontinental railroad, linking the East and West coasts and facilitating migration. This increased migration to the Western interior but also brought challenges.
Hw#24 the california gold rush of 1849
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 when gold was discovered by James Marshall at Sutter's Mill near Sacramento. Word of the discovery quickly spread, with some 80,000 prospectors, called "forty-niners", traveling to California in 1849 hoping to strike it rich. The influx of miners and settlers transformed California, leading to its statehood in 1850. While some miners succeeded in finding gold, others faced harsh conditions and discrimination, especially Chinese immigrants. The Gold Rush spurred major economic and population growth in California and the western United States.
Hw#24 sectionalism
Westward expansion increased sectionalism in the United States by deepening economic and social differences between regions. As new lands opened in the West, the North focused on industry and opposed slavery's expansion, while the South wanted to protect its agricultural economy based on plantation slavery. Henry Clay believed sectionalism was harmful to the country by dividing loyalty to regions rather than the nation as a whole.
Hw#23 the california gold rush of 1849
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 when gold was discovered at Sutter's Mill by James Marshall. News of the discovery spread quickly, attracting around 80,000 prospectors, known as "forty-niners", to California in 1849 hoping to strike it rich. The Gold Rush transformed California from a sparsely-populated territory into a major economic force, leading to its statehood in 1850. While some prospectors succeeded in finding gold, most failed and boom towns came and went as mining sites were depleted.
Manifest destiny ppt
1) Americans justified westward expansion through the belief in "Manifest Destiny", the idea that it was God's plan for America to control all of North America.
2) They expanded westward through various means such as treaties, purchases of territory like the Louisiana Purchase, and wars with Mexico which resulted in additional land acquisitions.
3) Between 1820 and 1850, 4 million Americans moved west, helping to populate and claim more of the western lands, furthering the cause of Manifest Destiny.
Indian removal
President Andrew Jackson's signing of the Indian Removal Act and its impact on Native Americans is examined. Students are asked to choose whether they want to hear from President Jackson defending the Act or from Native Americans explaining how it affected them. A political cartoon portrays Jackson and the treatment of indigenous people, and students are prompted to discuss whether the Cherokees were uncivilized and if Jackson should remain on the $20 bill.
Andrew jackson
Andrew Jackson advanced the cause of democracy in some ways but may have also inhibited it in others. He was described as a "common man" president who helped expand suffrage, but he also opposed the National Bank and centralized federal power in the presidency. Overall, the document discusses whether Jackson's presidency advanced or inhibited democracy in the United States.
